Presentation topic:
Contiloop AI -
AI-based process control system
Abstract
Abstract
Krones has developed an AI-based process control system, Contiloop AI, for its Contiform stretch blow molder.
The system uses AI-based software and new hardware to detect variations in material distribution in the production of PET containers and automatically adjusts key stretch-blow-molding parameters in real-time.
The technology addresses the challenges of producing PET containers, which include daily changes in the environmental conditions, high production speeds, demand for recycled PET, and reduced weight of containers.
Contiloop AI ensures a high level of quality in the produced bottles, reduces manual interventions, and minimizes offline quality assurance.
