SIMOLDES 4.0: INJECTION MOULDS WITH ARTIFICIAL VISION AND INTELLIGENT SENSING

Co-funded by COMPETE 2020, the “Simoldes 4.0” project is developed in co-promotion with Simoldes Aços, CENTIMFE and the University of Minho.

The main objective of this project is to develop an efficient mould that integrates artificial vision and intelligent sensing, based on innovative monitoring solutions incorporated inside, which go beyond the usual temperature and pressure control.

This efficient mould incorporates advanced systems for a continuous and effective control of certain technical and process parameters, ensuring that the parameters regulating the systems are within the standard processing window and that other values of the operating variables show a regular and safe operation that maximises efficiency and productivity.

The project has the support of COMPETE 2020, under the Incentive System for Research and Technological Development, in the co-promotion strand.

Total Eligible Cost (Simoldes Aços, SA): €928,776.36
Financial Support (Simoldes Aços, SA): ERDF – €536,876.68
Period of execution: 01-09-2016 to 31-08-2019
