A system for programming a protection device for a molding machine includes a controller for actuating a plurality of molding machine actuators in an actuation sequence, each distinct actuation constituting a respective machine component actuation of an associated machine component. An HMI is operable to: present a GUI specific to a chosen machine component actuation; and for each of a plurality of other machine component actuations, define within the GUI, based on operator input, a rule specifying a state of the chosen machine component actuation relative to a state of the other machine component actuation for preventing interference between the two machine component actuations. The controller is configured, based on the rules defined within the GUI, to trigger an action, upon violation of any one of the rules, for reducing a risk of interference between the chosen machine component actuation and a respective one of the other machine component actuations.
A system (30) comprising:
A method (600) of programming a controller (50) for a molding machine (100), the controller for actuating a plurality of actuators (206, 208) of the molding machine (100) in an actuation sequence, each distinct actuation of one of the actuators during the actuation sequence constituting a respective machine component actuation, the method comprising:
A computer-readable medium (92) storing instructions that, when executed by a processor (82) of a computing device (80) associated with a controller (50) of a molding machine (100), the controller operable to actuate a plurality of actuators (206, 208) of the molding machine in an actuation sequence, each distinct actuation of one of the actuators during the actuation sequence constituting a respective machine component actuation, cause the processor to:
