Production machine comprising a control programme

A production machine for plastics processing, comprising several machine components and a machine control for controlling the plastics-processing machine, comprising a control program with an interactive user interface adapted as a visualization unit or a touchscreen;

• the control program being adapted to visualize on the visualization unit at least one of the machine components in their functions in production in at least one presentation for each of these machine components, and to provide corresponding switch panels for inputting process parameters with respect to the visualized machine component;
• the presentation comprising at least one parameter-time diagram with motion curves of one or more components of the respective machine component;
• at least one of the motion curves being subdivided into different suitable visualized motion sections for each of which the process parameter defining the process for this motion section is visualized which can be varied via the provided switch panels;
• the presentation is a multi-factor presentation comprising, in addition to the parameter-time diagram, a presentation of the components of these machine components which correlates with the motion curves,
• the control program allows tracing of the motion curves of the parameter-time diagram on the visualization unit, the tracing being correlated to the correspondingly moving presentation of the components of the machine component in their respective positions at any point in time in the parameter-time diagram,
• the control program is adapted such that the tracing process can suitably be interrupted and continued by the operator at any point in time on the parameter-time diagram, the moving presentation of the components stopping in the position of the point in time when tracing was interrupted, and correspondingly continuing as of this position when tracing is resumed.
