Moldflow Plastics Xpert 3.0 now shipping
Moldflow Plastics Xpert 3.0 software has been considerably enhanced to help automate the process of injection molding machine setup, optimization, and control
Traditionally, these software products required separate data acquisition devices and touch-screen computers.
Ultimately, this redundant hardware added to the costs and complexity associated with injection moulding manufacturing.
Now, both MPX 3.1 and Shotscope 2.4 support the A9800 data acquisition unit and can run simultaneously on the same touch screen computer.
A new Moldflow desktop application includes a comprehensive set of graphical user interface-based configuration utilities for easy setup and configuration of MPX.
Configuration utilities are now directly available within the Setup, Optimize, and Production Xpert modules.
This results in easy and dynamic application-specific customisation of any Xpert module.
Significant improvements to the Optimize Xpert user interface increase the ease of use of Design of Experiments (DOE).
Version 2.4 of the Moldflow Shotscope process monitoring and analysis system includes the following enhancements...
ERP/MRP interface: The interface to Enterprise Resource Planning and Materials Resource Planning applications allows for resources and jobs to be imported into Shotscope and for production data to be exported from Shotscope.
Blended materials tracking: This feature facilitates the creation of a blended material that can be tracked by lot number for the complete blend or by lot numbers of the individual components of the blend.
