Creation of a cyber-physical device that monitors and optimizes the plastic injection process.
The DASIT project develops a cyber-physical prototype that allows real-time and remote monitoring of the injection process, obtaining direct data from sensors embedded in the mould and indirect data through a device connected to the mould.
The device powered by DASIT is energy efficient, by integrating an energy harvesting system, and has a geolocation system through the implementation of advanced technologies to track the location of the molds.
It is a cloud-connected wireless device with a low-cost approach. In addition, data quality validation is achieved through artificial intelligence for process optimization and preventive maintenance.
The industry of manufacturing parts using processes such as the injection of plastic and metal alloys represents an economic pillar in Spain, generating more than 75,000 million euros annually.
Eurecat participates in the DASIT project through its Units of New Manufacturing Processes, Product Innovation and Multiphysics Simulation, Composite Materials and Applied Artificial Intelligence. Apart from Eurecat, the project consortium is formed by Carrasco Tool Components, a company specialized in the production of moulds.
