Original Kurzfassung:
The goal of this project is AI-based monitoring and optimization of algorithms based on sensor data
from injection molds. Using a battery-powered injection mold sensor platform, an indoor localization
system, and on-board artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, the states of the injection mold (e.g.,
acceleration, distance, and dwell time) are provided as a real-time service to a cloud environment,
independent of local conditions. In addition, more complex algorithms are developed in the cloud
application for more detailed analysis of the recorded data and metadata.
The number of processing cycles, the used sub-steps, processed materials and the used driving
parameters (processing speed, pressure, ?) strongly influence the mechanical stress of a tool. For
innovative business models (e.g., remote monitoring as a service, pay-per-use of a component of the
plant?), the reliable assessment of tool usage and stress including the identification of processing
cycles with limited access to the plant is of high importance.
Use of machine learning on edge systems with low computing power and/or with a small amount of
training data plays a crucial role in the project. In several applications, data-driven methods with high
computational complexity cannot be used or must be complemented by an edge system with low
computational powe
