    The present invention relates to a method having the features of the preamble of claim 1 and a forming machine having the features of the preamble of claim 12.
    The recycled material in a material collecting space is in a z. B. formed by a distribution system and a gate system in a z. B. placed in a mold mold cavity where it solidifies. The term "gate" is understood to mean that part of a gating system which connects the molding formed by the material solidified in the cavity (in the case of an injection molding machine one also speaks of a "sprue") to the distribution system.
    There are several parameters for describing the compression behavior of a compressible material, eg. B. the compression module K, which is discussed below by way of example. However, the invention can also be carried out with other parameters (such as, for example, compressibility).
    The compression modulus K of a substance describes which all-round pressure change is necessary to cause a certain volume change of the substance. It is defined as:
    (Equation 1) V ... Volume dp ... (infinitesimal) Pressure change dV ... (infinitesimal) Volume change dV / V ... relative volume change
    The following is an example of the processed material plastic melt and discussed as an example of a molding machine injection molding machine. The invention is not limited to any of these examples.
    The pressure and volume of a plastic melt are two of the most important physical parameters in the processing of plastics by injection molding. As a result, the compression module has an enormous importance for injection molding. The force applied to the injection piston and the resulting pressure have the primary task of making the melt flow and thereby filling a mold cavity. Under the pressure required for this there is a decrease in volume of the melt according to the compression modulus. The temporal change of the screw position and the volume calculated therefrom therefore contains both parts which correspond to the volume flow into the cavity and also parts which originate from the compression of the melt. In order to be able to recognize and distinguish these components, it is necessary to know the compression module as well as the actually existing melt volume.
    A generic method is evident from EP 478 788 A1 (Komatsu). In the Komatsu script the implementation of a compression test is described with reference to FIG. The compression test is carried out with the machine nozzle closed at position 30 and thus takes into account the volume of the screw antechamber and the material designated by the reference numeral 6.
    The object of the invention is to provide a method which allows more accurate than the prior art, to determine at least one parameter for describing the compression behavior of a processed material in a molding machine material and the provision of an injection molding machine, in which the data thus determined are stored.
    This object is achieved by a method having the features of claim 1 and an injection molding machine having the features of claim 12. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are defined in the dependent claims.
    By the invention it is possible, the total dead volume of a molding machine in the determination of at least one characteristic for
    Be aware of the description of the compression behavior, since the material collection space remains unlocked during the compression test. With the Komatsu font, only the dead volume in the cylinder, which is already known due to the machine design, is taken into account due to the closed cylinder. The sprue system is not considered.
    By way of example, the invention will be explained below with reference to an injection molding machine which has a plasticizing screw arranged in a plasticizing cylinder and functioning as a piston. However, the method is generally applicable to a molding machine having a material collecting space for processing and collecting the processed material, and particularly to an injection molding machine in which a piston arranged in a material collecting space is provided.
    The pressure of the plastic melt is usually measured directly or indirectly in the prior art via suitable sensors. The volume is usually calculated from the measured position of the screw or the injection piston and the known cross-sectional area. However, this calculated volume is usually not identical to the actual melt volume. The additional volume of melt which is present in the antechamber (including flange, nozzle,...) Or in the sprue system is not considered separately or even displayed on injection molding machines in the state of the art. It is due to tolerances and possibly unknown dimensions z. B. the Fleißkanalsystems in many cases a priori not known exactly.
    The volume V is thus composed of different proportions:
    (Eq.2) For the present invention, initially only the distinction between the calculated from the screw position and the remaining shares is relevant. The remaining parts (which are not accessible via the screw movement) are therefore summarized under the term dead volume (VTot).
    (Equation 3)
    Even for the type of raw material and parameters such as pressure and temperature-dependent compression modulus, the values are usually not known with sufficient accuracy.
    In general, the compression modulus itself is pressure dependent, i. H. K = K (p). The pressure dependence of the compression modulus of plastics can in many cases be due to a linear relationship of the shape
    (Equation 4) with constant parameters K0 and Ki are well modeled. Of course, other models can be used as well. By inserting the linear model in the definition of the compression modulus and reshaping one obtains the following differential equation
    (Equation 5)
    Disintegrating results
    (Equation 6) or
    (Equation 7)
    Using the boundary condition
    one receives
    (Equation 8)
    These equations are exemplary and change accordingly under different model assumptions for the pressure dependence of the compression modulus. For a pressure-independent compression modulus (limÄ'j -> 0), this simplifies, for example, too
    (Equation 9)
    Using the example of (Eq. 8, the goal is to obtain the parameters V0, K0, K-. To obtain data from which these values can be calculated is either a change in the screw position and a measurement of the resulting pressure change or a change in the applied Such a process, in which either the volume (screw position) or the pressure is varied and the two quantities are measured, is referred to as a compression test in the following.
    From the measured value pairs of screw position and pressure Vs-p, ie from a single such compression test, basically all three variables can already be determined. In practice it turns out that this problem is difficult to solve numerically. There are numerous parameter combinations that describe the data very well but are far removed from the actual parameter values. Even low measurement noise therefore makes it difficult in practice to precisely determine the parameters.
    In order to obtain values for the compression modulus and dead volume, therefore, preferably at least two compression tests are carried out under different boundary conditions.
    Example:
    There are two compression tests at two different melt volumes and thus different screw positions S1 & S2 performed. The result is, for example, pressure values p and the associated volume values VSij and Vs2j calculated from the respective screw position. The derivatives dp / dVSi or dp / dVS2 can be numerically selected from the value pairs (VSi, i | Pi) and (VS2, i | Pi ) be determined. Assuming that the compression modulus of the material is the same in both cases, the following applies:
    (Equation 10)
    Thus VTot can be calculated at pressure p, as
    (Equation 11)
    As has been suggested herein, the dead volume may generally also be pressure dependent itself. Changes in the dead volume result from deformation of the mechanical components under pressure (expansion of the mass cylinder, compression of the piston / worm, the drive train ...). By evaluating Eq. 11 at different pressure levels, this pressure dependence can be determined.
    Since Vjot (Pi) is now known, the compression modulus K (p,) at a certain pressure pi can be determined according to the definition of the compression modulus
    (Equation 12). From the values K (p,) at at least two different pressure values p, the parameters K0 and K-i, which describe the pressure dependence K (p) in the model or the parameters of another model, can be subsequently calculated.
    Similarly, it is possible to construct a model for the pressure dependence of the dead volume from the values Vtot (Pi). As a first approximation, for example, a linear approach could be used
    to get voted.
    The determined values for the compression modulus or dead volume can be displayed on the screen of the machine or recorded or documented in the control.
    By varying other influencing factors (for example the temperature of the material being processed or the rate of change of the pressure or the volume during the compression test) and repeated determination of the compression modulus and / or dead volume, it is clear that the relationship to these influencing factors can also be determined and possibly described by appropriate models.
    From the combination of the pressure and temperature dependence of the compression module, the V (p, T) behavior can subsequently be determined as the parameter of the material. If, in addition, the weight of a defined volume (for example by spraying) is determined, the behavior of the specific volume v (p, T) can be determined and displayed.
    The two deadweight volume compression tests may be movements that are part of a "normal injection molding cycle," additional motion sequences that are integrated into the normal injection molding cycle, or motion sequences that are entirely outside of the normal production process. The first two variants have the advantage that the determination can take place directly in the current production process under the prevailing conditions, while in the third variant is more flexible in the design of the movement. Examples of suitable movements in the normal injection molding cycle are the pressure reduction at the end of the holding pressure phase and / or the pressure relief phase after dosing.
    Since the dead volume in a particular arrangement (machine + tool) can be assumed to be constant, changes in the compression modulus from individual compression tests can be determined as a result. Such compression tests for repeated determination of the compression modulus, in turn, may be movements that are part of a "normal injection molding cycle", additional movements that are integrated into the normal injection molding cycle or movements that are carried out for this purpose entirely outside the normal production process. Examples of suitable movements in the normal injection molding cycle are the pressure reduction at the end of the holding pressure phase or the compression release after the end of dosing. Ideally (but not necessarily), no melt flow into the cavity takes place at the time of the compression test. If appropriate closure mechanisms are present on the machine or fluid channel nozzle, this can be ensured by them. If no closure is possible, the entire non-solidified region of the melt connected to the melt in the screw antechamber is included in the determination of the dead volume and / or the compression modulus.
    It is preferably provided that the at least one compression test is designed in the form of a pressure drop.
    Figs. 1 to 3 relate to a first embodiment of the invention. Figs. 4 and 5 relate to a second embodiment of the invention.
    Fig. 1 shows the course of metering and injection pressure in two injection molding cycles with different Ausgangsdosiervolumen.
    FIG. 2 shows an enlarged detail from FIG. 1: course of dosing volume and injection pressure in the post-pressure reduction phase
    FIG. 3 shows the profile of injection pressure over dosing volume during the post-pressure reduction phase from FIGS. 1 and 2. Value pairs VsulPi and VS2j | Pi are shown.
    The Nachdruckabbauphase serves as a compression test. The change in the dosing volume is achieved by adding different quantities of melt in two independent injection molding cycles. During the post-decompression phase, the value pairs Vs and p are recorded in each case.
    4 shows two compression tests in an injection molding cycle. Compression test 1: after the pressure phase (solid line), compression test 2: after the dosing phase (dotted line). The remaining course of volume and pressure is shown dotted.
    FIG. 5 shows the profile of the injection pressure over the metering volume during the two compression attempts from FIG. 4. Value pairs VsulPi or VS2, i | Pi are shown.
    The two compression tests at different screw positions are integrated into a single injection molding cycle. Before the end of the holding pressure phase, the pressure is increased to a desired value (1000 bar in the example) and then reduced again to approximately 0 bar (compression test 1). A similar pressure profile is traversed after the dosing process (ie when the dosing volume is changed) (compression test 2). In the example, the value pairs VS2 | p are recorded during the falling pressure ramp and determined from this dead volume and the compression modulus.
