Abstract: An Injection moulding machine with substantially C-shaped machine frames including a joint part arranged between at least one die platen and the machine frame, the joint part comprising a beam extending in the longitudinal direction of the machine which is deformed upon application of a clamping force such that the at least one die platen is tilted relative to the associated side of the machine frame, the support of said beam effected substantially by at least two spaced support surfaces which are arranged above and below the midplane of the at least one die platen whose vertical position may be associated with the elastic deformation of the joint part by means of an adjustable abutment and extending the at least one die platen at an angle to the vertical.

Abstract: Injection-moulding machine with a substantially C-shaped machine frame (1), at one side (3) of which is mounted a fixed die platen (4), and at the other side (2) of which is mounted a clamping mechanism (21) for driving a movable die platen (5), wherein the free ends of the sides (2, 3) of the machine frame (1) not connected by bars deform under the influence of the clamping force occurring during the clamping process, and wherein a joint part (7) is arranged between at least one die platen (5) and the machine frame (1) and comprises a beam (6) extending in the longitudinal direction of the machine which is deformed upon application of the clamping force, Whereby the die platen (5) is tilted relative to the associated side (2) of the machine frame (1), characterized in that the support of the beam (6) on the die platen (5) is effected substantially by two support surfaces (11, 12) spaced apart from each other which are arranged above and below the midplane (8) of the die platen (5), as defined by height.
