Abstract: A control device includes: an injection control unit that controls, in a pressure holding process of controlling a pressure acting on a molding material from an injection member, an injection drive source based on a set value of the pressure and an actual value of the pressure. The injection control unit performs pressure reduction control to gradually reduce the actual value of the pressure with respect to the set value of the pressure from a middle of a k-th stage (k is an integer of 1 or more and n or less). The control device includes a ratio setting unit that sets a time ratio Tr(k) in the k-th stage and a pressure ratio ?Pr(k) in the k-th stage based on a set value P(k) of the pressure in the k-th stage, a set value T(k) of a holding time in the k-th stage, and information stored in advance.

Abstract: A technique for suppressing molding defects is provided. A control device of an injection molding machine includes: a mold clamping control unit that controls, with respect to an actual value of a mold clamping force for pressing a stationary mold and a movable mold after pressurizing of the mold clamping force is completed and before a molding material reaches parting surfaces of the stationary mold and the movable mold, a range of increase in the actual value of the mold clamping force after the molding material reaches the parting surfaces to an upper limit or less.

Abstract: A technique for managing a shear heating value of a molding material is provided. A control device of an injection molding machine individually controls outputs of a plurality of heating units for a plurality of zones, respectively, into which a cylinder is divided in a flow direction of a molding material. The control device acquires the output of the heating unit provided in a predetermined zone both in a steady state in which an operation of a screw provided inside the cylinder is stopped and at a time of molding at which the operation of the screw is performed, and calculates a difference in output of the heating unit provided in the predetermined zone between at a time of molding and in the steady state.

Abstract: The present invention offers a technique for providing assistance in setting up control for releasing gas from the interior of a mold device to the outside of the mold device. A display device for an injection molding machine display a screen. The screen includes a tab display field, in which a plurality of tabs are arranged, and a selection screen display field, in which selection screens that are selected for the respective plurality of tabs are displayed. The tab display field includes a first tab. The first selection screen, displayed in the selection screen display field when the first tab is selected, includes a plurality of input columns for use in a control of the release of gas from the inside of the mold device to the outside of the mold device.

Abstract: A technique for providing assistance in setting the time to increase the clamping force is provided. A control device of an injection molding machine includes a clamping control part and a monitoring part. The clamping control part is configured to change, in a filling step of filling the inside of a mold device with a molding material during clamping, a set value of clamping force from a first set value to a second set value that is larger than the first set value, at a predetermined pressurizing timing in the middle of the filling step. The monitoring part is configured to monitor changes in the actual value of the clamping force due to changes in the set value of the clamping force.

Abstract: With respect to a controller of an injection molding machine, the injection molding machine includes an injection member provided inside a cylinder to heat a molding material and an injection drive source to fill the molding material into a mold device by moving the injection member forward. The controller includes a limiting part that limits a movement of the injection member forward in a pressure-holding process of controlling an injection drive source so that an actual value of a filling pressure acting on the molding material from the injection member becomes a set value, and a determining part that determines an appropriateness of a setting to be used by the limiting part based on information of a sensor provided in the mold device.

Abstract: The present invention offers a technique for providing assistance in setting at least one of the temperature of a nozzle and the temperature of a cylinder. A control device for an injection molding machine includes a monitoring part configured to monitor, during a filling step of filling the inside of a mold device with a molding material, a change in the filling pressure acting on the molding material.
