System Configuration
The following figure shows a system configuration that measures pressure inside the mold using Mold
Marshalling system “MPS08 series”.
As shown in the above figure, the “MPS08” connects a strain gage type pressure sensor to the input.
The pressure sensor is connected to the Junction box that can accommodate four channels and, via the Junction
cable, connected to the amplifier. Two Junction boxes can be connected to one amplifier.
The amplifier and PC exchange data via the LAN cable. The measurement software that comes with the system
needs to be installed in advance in PC. Pressure waveform data and historical data are stored in PC.
The “MPS08” can run with the amplifier alone. After PC is connected and the setting conditions are stored in the
amplifier, the monitor function works even with PC disconnected. (Data cannot be saved to the amplifier and
therefore only the alarm check function is available if the PC is disconnected.)
Connect the system to the molding machine and peripheral control equipment using the I/O cables that come
with the system. Doing so enables automatic start of measurement, output of alarm signals, and clearing alarm
signals.
The “MPS08” has the voltage output feature, so a commercially available data logger can be connected to
measure pressure waveforms.
