An innovative user interface combined with a capacitive multi-touch monitor achieves top-class efficiency and ease of use!

ComoNeo is designed to meet the requirements of the plastic injection molding process and the needs of operators in the manufacturing environment. An innovative user interface combined with a capacitive multi-touch monitor achieves the highest efficiency and ease of use. Additionally, the hardware of the device is designed with functionality in mind, allowing connections to be divided into the mold side (connected to the injection molding mold) and the molding machine side (connected to the injection molding machine or robot, extraction device, and other ancillary equipment). On the mold side of a single ComoNeo device, it is possible to connect up to 32 in-mold pressure sensors and up to 16 mold surface temperature sensors (using thermocouple temperature amplifier model 2205A...). The molding machine side is equipped with 12 digital inputs and 24 digital outputs. Furthermore, ComoNeo can record and analyze four analog machine signals (screw position, injection pressure, etc.). Smooth data transfer is achieved through USB and Ethernet interfaces, allowing visualization and configuration of ComoNeo using shared notebooks, PCs, tablets, smartphones, and other devices on the network.

The 6157C series internal pressure sensors are best-selling products used worldwide.

The tip diameter of the 6157C series is 4mm. The function of the O-ring is to seal the gap of less than 10 microns that occurs between the mounting hole and to align the sensor. When the tip of the sensor directly receives pressure within the mold and transmits it to the quartz element, a charge is generated that is accurately proportional to the pressure, and this charge is converted into voltage by a charge amplifier (sold separately). All parts are made of corrosion-resistant materials.

It is possible to simultaneously measure the in-mold pressure and the mold surface temperature at the same location within the mold.

The pressure received by the diaphragm at the sensor tip is transmitted to a quartz element, generating a charge (pC) that is accurately proportional to the pressure. This charge is converted into voltage by a charge amplifier (sold separately). The cable is replaceable.

Connect to the process monitoring system ComoNeo with a single cable! Space-saving! Reduced mold installation time!

The multi-connector models 1722A4... and 1722A8... save space within the mold and reduce the time required for mold installation through simplified connection technology. The multi-connector is used for connecting single wires and coaxial cables, making the installation of in-mold pressure sensors easier. The multi-connector simplifies and standardizes connections to in-mold pressure monitoring systems like ComoNeo. It prevents mix-ups when connecting sensors to ComoNeo, and an IC chip built into the multi-connector assigns specific molds, allowing ComoNeo to identify the connected mold.
