Cavity-pressure system for process monitoring.


A new stand-alone cavity-pressure monitoring system designed for "zero-defect" production is the first such system from Kistler Instrument Corp., Amherst, N.Y. Its CoMo Injection system monitors and records up to eight channels of cavity pressure during molding and assesses part quality on a pass/fail basis according to according to
prep.
1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians.

2. In keeping with: according to instructions.

3.
 preset preset Cardiac pacing A parameter of a pacemaker that is programmed permanently when manufactured  standards for the cavity-pressure profile. Users can also configure it to monitor four channels of cavity pressure and four channels of machine signals. The process and production monitoring device is compact and mounts on the machine.

The system can provide real-time closed-loop control of the entire molding process or just the switchover switch·o·ver
