With mold inventories expanding, full-service provider for moldmaking, Hasco America Inc. presents its Mould Track technology to provide indoor localization of injection molds.
After production runs, mold tooling is placed in storage until it is needed again. It is imperative there be a fast and simple way to find these molds again when needed, to optimize both production planning and workflow.
Whether the mold is already in storage or is currently being used in the mold building process, Mould Track can locate it. Hasco’s Mould Track software ensures molds are being used at the right place and at the right time. The technology utilizes precise, ultra-broadband radio modules and an intelligent software platform on a supplied PC.
The quick-turn technology ensures localization accuracy down to a few centimeters. Complete with robust algorithms, the system accurately tracks injection molding tools of any facility layout in real time via the digital interlinking of processes.
According to Hasco, one of the most significant trends the company has seen over the past five years is utilizing computer data to track information and the history of the mold building process. As the digital world expands, ensuring the safekeeping, organization and speed of this process is crucial.
