HEYE PROCESS CONTROL: AN INCOMPARABLE SUCCESS STORY
海葉工藝控制：成功案例

As it reaches over 1000 process controls delivered to customers, Heye is the leading partner for process optimisation, regulation and digitalisation of the NNPB process. According to Hans Renders, Head of Product Management at Heye International, the Heye Process Control 4.0 (HPC) was the crucial milestone to initiate Industry 4.0 within the glass industry.
目前全球玻璃廠使用海葉的工藝控制系統數量已超過1000條生產線。海葉在小口壓吹工藝的數字化及工藝優化方面，已成為玻璃工廠具備工業4.0水平的標志。

The Heye Process Control 4.0 is a closed-loop-solution for the press process of all plunger mechanisms within an IS-machine. Simultaneously, it keeps the gob weight stable. Its computer interface displays a number of forming events on selectable charts and allows users to improve parameter setting by comparing data.
海葉的工藝控制系統4.0是一全閉合方案，控制一臺行列機上所有芯子機構的沖壓過程，從而實現料重穩定。電腦操作界面根據需求選取相應的曲線，橫向比較以便改行列機的參數設置。

Early detection of malfunctions increases production efficiency. The integrated plunger cylinders guarantee precise and consistent parison parameters for press-blow and NNPB production.
提早發現錯誤設置即使采取修改措施，很大程度上提高了生產效率。內置的芯子氣缸確保壓吹和小口壓吹生產的精確模腔參數設定。

By delivering the 1000th HPC, Heye comprehensively demonstrated that it has recognised and fulfilled the approach required by the market for stable and sustainable process data management in the past decades. The Heye Process Control is the essential closed-loop- system for every glass manufacturer in order to meet the high quality requirements of NNPB production.
隨著海葉為客戶交付第1000套工藝控制系統HPC，這證明再過去的幾十年中， 海葉早已認識到市場對于工藝過程的數據管理的需求。

Changes in customers’ process requirements have driven Heye International engineers to modify the Heye Process Control (HPC) from solely a plunger sensor to a holistic solution. The data acquisition from different sensors and the regulation of process parameters are now realised in the Heye ProcessMaster in which the Heye Process Control becomes a subsystem.
隨著客戶對工藝的需求不斷增加難度，海葉國際的工程師們對海葉工藝控制系統(HPC)進行了改進，從單一的芯子氣缸傳感器轉變為工藝解決方案。如今HPC增加一個全新的次級模塊 Heye ProcessMaster （HPM），采集所有芯子氣缸傳感器的數據結合工藝控制參數進行自動調節。

The Heye ProcessMaster (HPM) is a modular central software solution which is used as a basis for most sensor solutions in Hot End production. HPM makes it now possible to implement single sensors as well as complex sensor systems.
HPM 是一種模塊化的中控軟件解決方案， 用于處理熱端工藝部分的大多數傳感器數據。HPM實現了單個傳感器和多個傳感器的復雜集成。

These sensors are for example:
這些傳感器包括如下：

• the Heye GobMaster for weight control of BB-process and additional information like gob-shape, temperature and dimensions
  海葉GobMaster用于吹吹工藝的料重控制以及料形，料溫和料滴尺寸等信息。

• the Heye BlankMaster, which monitors different mould part temperatures and gob loading at the blank side
  海葉BlankMaster用于檢測模具每個部件的溫度和初型側的接料位置。

• stand-alone gob temperature sensor
  獨立式料滴溫度傳感器。

All collected sensor and machine data can be used inside the production process to regulate process parameters like gob weight, press duration or mould part temperatures.
收集到的傳感器信號和行列機的數據將被用于生產工藝上的參數調節， 例如料重，沖壓時間和模具組件溫度。

All collected process data is stored in the HPM for seven days.
HPM 儲存數據的時間長達7天。

The collected data can also be extracted via Heye SmartLink to be used by a third-party  get a long-term history of all relevant machine and process data. This helps to generate a better understanding of the process and the machine behaviour and consequently to implement optimisations on process and machine.

收集到的數據也可以通過海葉SmartLink提取供第三方MES（制造執行系統）使用，以獲得所有相關機器和工藝數據的長期歷史。這有助于更好地理解整個工藝和機器的自身特性，從而優化工藝流程。

In addition to all these hardware optimisations, Heye is always in contact with its customers to set up user interfaces for a friendlier and more intuitive operation. Hence, the HPM gets a reworked user interface on each operating system update to let the operator feel more comfortable and familiar when handling the system.

除了上述的硬件優化之外，海葉始終與客戶保持聯系并建立更友好、更直觀的用戶界面。因此，HPM在每個操作系統更新是都會重新設計用戶界面，讓操作人員在操作系統時感到更舒適和熟悉。

MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE 瓶中資訊

Last week we received the following email from the Isle of Anglesey:

Hello from the Isle of Anglesey in North Wales, I hope you can help. After last night's very stormy weather I found a glass float on the beach. I've identified the stamp and it was made by Heye Glass Manufacturers. I'm trying to find out how old it might be. Would you be able to find out when the company stopped producing glass floats please?
Thank you so much for your help ????

上個星期我們收到一封來自安格爾西島的郵件：

你好，這里是北威爾士安格爾西島的問候，希望貴司能幫上忙。昨晚我們這里暴風雨過后，我在海灘上發現了一個玻璃浮球。能夠清晰看到這個玻璃球上的刻花，我知道這是海葉玻璃廠制造的玻璃球。請問能否查到海葉玻璃廠最后一批玻璃球是那也年生產的？這樣我就可以知道這個玻璃球的年紀了。
非常感謝你的幫助。

The ball shown is a floating ball that was used for fishing. They were used to keep fishing nets on the surface by the buoyancy of the air trapped in them. The floating balls are actually blown balls, originally blown free and later blown into shape. They were locked in a string net attached to the edge of the fishing net. Heye Glass manufactured these spheres from 1910 to the 1950s. 照片中的玻璃球是一個用來捕魚的浮球。利用空氣的浮力將漁網固定在水面上。漂浮球實際是吹吹出來的，最初隨意吹，后來漸漸發展有個固定的外形。它們被鎖在漁網邊緣的細網里。海葉玻璃公司曾于1910年到20世紀50年代期間生產過這些玻璃球。 It's a pity that the glass ball that's washed up can't speak. It could certainly have told a lot about her travels on the oceans of this world. 被沖上岸的玻璃球如果會說話，一定能告訴我們很多關于她在這個世界上的海洋旅行的事情。
