“…As the relations among processes in the injection molding production line are complicated, the simulation methods for production lines did not often consider the injection molding machine. Concerning the simulation method for injection molding processes, there are two studies [10] [11]. The first study proposed considering the influence of production conditions and part shape [10].…”

“…However, this method focused on only single injection molding machines and did not consider auxiliary machines and multiple production lines to calculate the productivity and energy consumption of the whole production system. The second study proposed a simulation modeling method that defined a relationships among injection molding processes, necessary machines, and auxiliary machines, and defined states and transitions of each machine [11]. However, this simulation modeling method was not implemented in manufacturing system simulation.…”

Methods for evaluating productivity and energy consumption simultaneously have been getting significant interest in the industry. In particular, although injection molding machines are important system components for production in plastic molding, a method for simultaneously evaluating their productivity and energy consumption has not been established. Therefore, we propose a simulation method that is based on a state transition model containing state transitions and states of machines in an injection molding production line.
