System Configuration
The following figure shows a system configuration that is required to measure the flow velocity inside the
mold using Mold Marshalling System "MFS02".
Molding machine, controller
External trigger signal inputs
PC
Control signal outputs
Voltage output
Data logger, etc.
LAN cable
Flow velocity sensor
AC adapter
AC
AC outlet
Relay amplifier
As shown in the above figure, the "MFS02" is designed to connect an optical fiber sensor to the input.
The flow velocity sensor is connected to a relay amplifier, and connected to the connector of the MFS02
main unit amplifier via a junction cable.
The measurement amplifier and PC exchange data via the LAN cable. The measurement software that
comes with this equipment needs to be installed in advance in the PC. Resin flow velocity values and
velocity waveforms and historical data are stored in the PC.
An I/O cable is to be prepared by the customer. The system is connected to the molding machine and
peripheral control equipment using the cable. This enables to start measurement, output control signals
and clear control signals automatically. The "MFS02" has a voltage output feature, so a commercially
available data logger can be connected to measure velocity waveforms.
