  • Patent number: 5238383
    Abstract: A mold opening controller for injection molding machines, having a control unit for controlling the hydraulic circuit. The control unit having a setter for setting acceleration/deceleration functions of a movable portion such as the movable mold; a data input for the setter; an operational unit for calculating the acceleration/deceleration of portions of the movable mold and the acceleration/deceleration speeds at each moving position at the time of the acceleration/deceleration on the bases of data from the setter and the data input; a position sensor for detecting the moving position of the movable mold; and a control for controlling the hydraulic circuit so that acceleration/deceleration positions of the movable mold and its moving speed at each position correspond to the output values of the operational unit through the position sensor.

  • Patent number: 4802097
    Abstract: In an injection molding machine combined with a peripheral apparatus, control units capable of interchanging signals are provided for the molding machine and the peripheral apparatus. Each control unit comprises a memory device storing set molding data applied with numbers or identifications. When the control unit of the molding machine sends the set data number or identification to the control unit of the peripheral apparatus to read out from the memory devices, the set molding data are formed when the numbers or identifications coincide with each other.
