"The “WiAssist” app supports users in machine setting. It is based on a materials database which contains the most important process parameters. These can be retrieved directly by users. The values are also used for various calculations. For example, by entering just a few parameters, values such as cooling time, cavity pressure, injection pressure, clamping force, dosing volume or screw speed can be calculated. “WiAssist” also provides a button for trouble-shooting, where a description of the most frequent injection molding faults and defects including suggestions for remedial action can be retrieved. Via “Info/contact”, users can get in touch with WITTMANN or WITTMANN BATTENFELD by email, establish a link to the WITTMANN Group website or call the WITTMANN BATTENFELD 24/7 service hotline directly from the mobile phone."
