What the Data for This Category Looks Like
Core data for mold design and manufacturing scenarios comes from customer product models, mold flow or forming simulation files, CAD/CAM output drawings, machining and measurement data, and sample part inspection reports. Daily produced documents include mold design task sheets, DFM reports, part machining drawings, process cards, mold trial reports, mold modification notices, and mold history logs. Fields include the number of mold cavities, draft angle, material grade, machining tolerance (unit mm), and others. Data updates follow project progress. Teams synchronize updates each time there is a mold trial, mold modification, or mass production node change.
Constraints Imposed by These Characteristics on the Workflow Orchestration Link
Dispersed data sources and diverse formats require workflows to support automatic parsing and classified review of multiple document types. The project-based update rhythm requires workflows to bind project-level variables to avoid cross-project data confusion. Review links involve multi-dimensional checks such as demolding, shrinkage, and assembly accuracy, and errors can affect mass production nodes. This requires workflows to connect multiple review nodes and configure failure retry mechanisms. Mold data involves internal process details. Configure strict identity authentication rules for workflows to restrict unauthorized access.
How to Configure the Settings
| Configuration Item | Recommended Approach | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Shared link identity authentication | Enable and bind to project member groups | Mold design documents contain core enterprise process data. Restrict access to only project participants |
| Database connection timeout | 600 seconds | Mold CAD files and simulation data have large file sizes. Reserve sufficient time for data pulling and parsing |
| RAG recall count | Top 8 entries | Cover multi-dimensional reference documents required for mold design review. Avoid excessive content that increases context processing load |
| Variable binding | Associate data with project IDs specified by variables | Enable a single workflow to adapt to multiple mold design projects. Avoid cross-data contamination |
| Node unique identifier | Configure a unique nodeId for each workflow node | Facilitate quick location of abnormal nodes during workflow operation. Improve debugging efficiency |
| Database plugin retry count | 2 times | Offset workflow interruption risks caused by temporary network fluctuations or data loading delays |
Three Common Misconfigurations
- Incorrect order of RAG and MCP tool calls in the workflow. Tool returns empty document results. The cause is that nodes are not arranged according to the "data pulling - document parsing - parameter verification" logic.
- Cannot find the identity authentication option in workflow sharing configuration. No corresponding setting entry appears on the page. The cause is that advanced permission configuration has not been enabled on the FastGPT v4.17.0 workflow management page.
- Abnormal database connection plugin latency. Workflow runs timeout or returns loading failure. The cause is that the timeout period has not been adjusted to a reasonable range, or the volume of document data pulled in a single operation has not been restricted.
How to Confirm Proper Configuration
- Access the sharing settings module of the workflow editing page. Confirm that the identity authentication configuration item exists and has been bound to the project member group.
- Run a test workflow. Review plugin running logs. Confirm that database connection latency does not exceed
600 seconds. - Review the configuration of all workflow nodes. Confirm that each node's
nodeIdis not duplicated, and thatvariablesare bound to the correct project ID. - Trigger the workflow's review link. Verify that the number of RAG-recalled documents conforms to the preset top 8 rule.
