Abstract

An apparatus for displaying casting-data in a die-cast machine having a plurality of sensors which gather data values such as speed, pressure and temperature. A converter processes signals from sensors, and an input-calibration mechanism may be provided for correcting the processed signals and for issuing detected data. A casting-cycle data processing mechanism may be provided for displaying data items such as an injection speed or an injection pressure every casting cycle, based on the detected data. A casting control data processing mechanism may also be provided for displaying shot-time items and fluctuations through repeated injection cycles to monitor casting operation, where displays are based on the detected data from the input-calibration mechanism.
