The controller has a rotation speed N previously set therein as a set value for the screw rotation in a metering process. The controller rotates the screw at an acceleration A1 until the rotation speed of the screw reaches a value NK (where NK<N). After that the controller carries out a control operation to rotate the screw at an acceleration A2 until the rotation speed of the screw reaches the value N. The acceleration A2 is higher than the acceleration A1.

Abstract: In a control system for controlling a motor-driven injection molding machine that comprises an injection unit driven by a servo-motor and a speed feedback control loop for controlling the servo-motor, an amplifier produces a command signal indicative of a torque command value for the servo motor in accordance with a difference between a sensed speed value obtained by a rotation speed sensor and a speed command value. A pressure sensor senses a pressure of resin within a mold to produce a sensed pressure signal indicative of a sensed pressure. A correction amplifier amplifies the sensed pressure signal to produce an amplified signal as a correction value for a torque command value. An adder adds the torque command value and the correction value to produce an addition result to a motor drive.

Abstract: A control device for an injection molding machine includes a pattern generator for generating a set pattern of clamping forces. The pattern generating calculates a travel distance of a movable member in the mold clamping system according to the set clamping force and generates the set pattern having an allowable range of deviation that is defined by an upper limit and a lower limit relative to the calculated travel distance. The mold clamping system continuously decreases the clamping such that it falls within the range defined by the allowable range of deviation after the clamping force reaches the value defined by the upper limit.

Abstract: In an injection molding machine which comprises a mold composed of a fixed mold attached to a fixed platen and a movable mold attached to a movable platen, and a driving source for driving the movable platen to open and close the mold, a distance sensor detects, as a platen interval, a distance between two positions preliminarily selected on the fixed platen and the movable platen and produces a distance detection signal. A pressure sensor detects a clamping pressure applied by the driving source and produces a pressure detection signal. A control unit controls the driving source to adjust the platen interval and the clamping pressure through a plurality of steps in response to the distance detection signal and the pressure detection signal.

Abstract: A control device for an electric injection molding machine designed to advance and retract a screw in a heating cylinder by an injection motor includes a screw position detector for detecting a screw position to output a screw position detection signal, a speed pattern generator for generating a speed setting pattern signal which indicates relationship between time and screw speed. An integration unit integrates the speed setting pattern signal to obtain a moving stroke of the screw. And a generation unit generates a position instruction signal on the basis of the moving stroke and a screw position when injection is initiated. To generate a speed instruction signal, the screw position detection signal is subtracted from the position instruction signal as a manipulated variable of feedback and the speed setting pattern signal is applied to the position instruction signal as a manipulated variable of feed forward. Thus, accuracy at the speed changing positions can be improved, thus improving operability.

Abstract: A control unit for an injection molding machine comprises a position feedback control system 41, a pressure feedback control system 42, and a velocity minor feedback control system 43 which is used in common to the position and the pressure feedback control systems 41 and 42. A minimum value selector 30-3 selects a smaller one of manipulated variables supplied from the position feedback control system 41 and the pressure feedback control system 42. During pressure control, a position pattern follower 30-4 controls the operation of a position pattern generator 24-2 so as to restart generation of a position pattern at any time.

Abstract: A pressure feedback system for limiting pressure and a minor feedback system connected to the pressure feedback system are used as a speed feedback system for controlling an injection speed. Consequently, the injection speed is controlled on the basis of an injection speed setting signal using the minor feedback system, and a filling pressure is controlled on the basis of a limit pressure setting signal using the pressure feedback system for limiting pressure. Also, a switch for selectively activating the pressure feedback system and a comparator for comparing the limit pressure setting signal with a filling pressure detection signal are provided within the pressure feedback system. The switch activates the pressure feedback system when the filling pressure detection signal is equal to or larger than the limit pressure setting signal. A normal injection speed control operation is performed until the switch activates the pressure feedback system.
