1. A hybrid winder machine system configured to operate in a first state to wind a continuous web material to produce a final wound product and to operate in a second state to emulate production of the wound product, the system comprising:
at least one processor in operative communication with a hybrid winder machine, the machine having a plurality of actuators that move a plurality of mechanical elements, the at least one processor being configured to control physical operation of the hybrid winder machine while the system operates in the first state; and, at least one processor configured to provide an emulated environment for the hybrid winder machine while the system operates in the second state by:
preparing for display a graphical user interface comprising a plurality of input fields corresponding to the plurality of actuators and the plurality of mechanical elements, and a graphical representation of output response data of the machine using parameters;receiving a plurality of parameters into the plurality of input fields, wherein the plurality of parameters are associated with the plurality of actuators and the plurality of mechanical elements;emulating a mechanical operation of the machine using the plurality of parameters inputted into the plurality of input fields by simulating the programmable logic control code;generating the output response data based on the emulation of the mechanical operation of the machine;calculating one or more predicted product values based at least in part on the output response data provided to the a product model; and,preparing for display the one or more predicted product values. |
