Notes:
This paper is concerned with the practical application of the adaptive model following control (AMFC) theory on the cavity pressure control of the mold filling process in an injection molding machine. The experimental results indicate that the AMFC technique based on the modified Popov-Landau method is very useful for the cavity pressure control. Two kinds of control algorithms are implemented on a 16 bit microcomputer to control the cavity pressure. The results also show that the AMFC algorithm is superior to the classical PI control in this system when the acrylonitrile-butadiene-stryrene (ABS) is injected into a test specimen mold which is designed according to the ASTM code.
