The measured value of a rubber temperature parameter that is related to the temperature of a rubber material to be kneaded by a mixing machineand measured values of correlation parameters that have a correlation with a change in the value of the rubber temperature parameter are acquired. The measured values are assigned to an operational control parameter-calculation model equation, which is modified from a rubber temperature parameter-calculation model equation including operational control parameters and the correlation parameters, and a constant and coefficients of the operational control parameters and the correlation parameters are calculated using a machine learning algorithm. A predetermined operational control parameter, which is required in a case in which the rubber temperature parameter is controlled to a predetermined value, is calculated using an operational control parameter-calculation equation that is specified by the coefficients and the constant calculated using the machine learning algorithm.

A mixer () includes: a pair of rotors () arranged to have a gap (SP) therebetween; a casing () in which a chamber (C) in which the pair of rotors () is disposed, an introduction port () for introducing a material to be mixed (W) into the chamber (C), and a discharge port () for discharging the material to be mixed (W) from the chamber (C) are formed; a sensor () which is disposed above the pair of rotors () and detects variation in position or pressure of the material to be mixed (W); and a control unit () which controls rotation of the pair of rotors (), based on a detection result of the sensor ().
