An ANN-Based Temperature Controller for a Plastic Injection Moulding System

An ANN-Based Temperature Controller for a Plastic Injection Moulding System

This paper proposes an approach to an ANN-based temperature controller design for a plastic injection moulding system. This design approach is applied to the development of a controller based on a combination of a classical ANN and integrator. The controller provides a fast temperature response and...
