  • Patent number: 11305472
    Abstract: In an injection molding machine that transmits driving force of a mold opening/closing servo motor to a movable platen via a ball screw to move the movable platen with respect to a stationary platen, and thereafter clamps molds by a mold clamping mechanism, provided is a control method capable of detecting a position of the movable platen at a time of continuous molding and correcting the operation start confirming position. In a method for controlling an injection molding machine that transmits driving force of a mold opening/closing servo motor to a movable platen via a ball screw to move the movable platen with respect to a stationary platen, and thereafter clamps molds by a mold clamping mechanism, other control is performed using a position A of the movable platen, the position A being detected by a position sensor at a time of continuous molding, and the position A of the movable platen is corrected.
