What this category of data looks like
Data for this category comes from formula systems, raw material batch management modules, internal mixers, Mooney viscometers, rheometers, vulcanizers, and laboratory testing equipment. Daily generated documents include formula sheets, weighing and feeding records, mixing process curves, rubber quick test reports, vulcanization process cards, mold usage records, and finished product performance test reports. Data updates occur for every raw material truck batch, every batch of rubber produced, and every vulcanization cycle per mold. Single data points are synchronized in real time in line with production rhythms.
What constraints these characteristics impose on the "HTTP Interfaces and External Systems" link
High-frequency production data updates require interfaces to support millisecond-level response and concurrent calls, to avoid blocking real-time production processes. Multi-source heterogeneous data sources require interfaces to be compatible with parameter formats of different devices and systems, and support pulling corresponding datasets by production batch and mold number. Strong field requirements for process documents such as mixing temperature, vulcanization time, and feeding ratio require interfaces to return structured standard fields, to prevent non-standard content from interfering with question-and-answer matching. The high cost of production errors requires interfaces to include built-in parameter verification and failure retry logic, to prevent erroneous data from entering the knowledge base.
How to set configurations
| Configuration Item | Recommended Setting | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Request timeout setting | 15–30 seconds | Matches the shortest production cycle per vulcanization mold, to avoid interrupting real-time production processes due to timeout |
Authorization | Fixed key plus production batch prefix | Differentiates interface access permissions for different production batches, adapts to high-frequency batch data updates |
variables | Bound to workshop number, mold number, production batch number | Accurately pulls process specifications and test data for the corresponding production link |
responseData | Returns only standard process fields | Filters unnecessary redundant data, speeds up question-and-answer matching and interface response speed |
| Single maximum data pull limit | Top 20 entries | Controls the data volume returned by a single interface, adapts to bandwidth limits for real-time calls |
| Failure retry configuration | Up to 3 retries, 2-second interval | Addresses temporary equipment or system fluctuations, prevents loss of single production data |
Three common mistakes
- Phenomenon: The mixing temperature field returned by the interface is empty, preventing the question-and-answer system from matching the correct process. Cause: The real-time temperature collection field of the internal mixer was not bound when pulling data, resulting in the omission of a core process parameter.
- Phenomenon: The interface returns status code 401, and authorization verification cannot be completed. Cause: The
Authorizationparameter does not carry the correct production batch prefix, leading to permission verification failure. - Phenomenon: A single interface call times out, causing a block in the production process. Cause: The request timeout setting does not match the shortest production cycle per vulcanization mold, causing the interface waiting time to exceed the production rhythm.
How to confirm the configuration is correct
- An interface call to pull vulcanization process card data for a specific batch can be used to check whether the returned fields include preset process parameters.
- High-frequency interface calls can be simulated to check whether the response time meets production rhythm requirements.
- Authorization verification can be triggered to confirm that different batch prefixes in the
Authorizationparameter can correctly distinguish access permissions. - An interface call failure scenario can be simulated to check whether the preset retry logic is triggered.
