Abstract: A molding apparatus provided with a transfer capable of transferring a heavy-weight mold clamping device. The molding apparatus that molds a molded product, includes: a mold clamping device clamping a parison extruded from an extruder to obtain a molded body, a transfer rail to support the mold clamping device in a transferable manner, and an electric cylinder to transfer the mold clamping device along the transfer rail. The mold clamping device includes first and second platens for holding a die, and a clamping drive unit for driving the first and second platens closer to or separated from each other, the electric cylinder includes a motor having an output shaft and a feed screw mechanism that converts the rotary motion of the output shaft into a linear motion.

Abstract: A molding machine configured to achieve space saving and simplification of the hydraulic circuit. Provided is a molding machine configured to form a molded body by closing, in a state where a parison is disposed by injecting molten resin between first and second molds capable of being opened and closed, the first and second molds and maintaining pressure applied to the first and second molds. A hydraulic circuit to conduct oil for generating hydraulic pressure; the flow adjustment valve, a pressure adjustment valve, and a path control valve included in the hydraulic circuit; and a multi-functional valve unit.
