An injection molding machine includes an injection device including at least first and second injection units, and one mold clamping device. A molding material is injected into a first cavity space by the first injection unit, and a molding material is injected into a second cavity space by the second injection unit. The injection molding machine further includes a control device controlling the injection device and the mold clamping device, and a storage device storing a set time in advance. The control device starts injection of the second injection unit after elapse of the set time from a predetermined time point. The predetermined time point is a time point at which the first injection unit starts injection or an earlier time point. The set time is a delay time for delaying start of injection of the second injection unit from start of injection of the first injection unit.

Injection molding machine, control method of injection molding machine, and computer readable storage medium

Provided is an injection device and an injection control method which are capable of preventing a drooping phenomenon from an injection nozzle even during high cycle molding, and capable of appropriately plasticizing and molding a resin having poor thermal stability. An injection device () of the disclosure includes: an injection cylinder () which accumulates a molding material and has an injection nozzle () at the front; an injection plunger () which is moved backward in the injection cylinder (); an injection plunger driving device () which moves the injection plunger () backward; and an injection controller (). The injection controller () retreats the injection plunger () by the injection plunger driving device () to perform metering in a plastication metering step of metering the molding material supplied into the injection cylinder ().

Injection device and injection control method

An injection molding machine having vent mechanism includes a plastication device, an injection device, a junction, a vent-up sensor, and a controller. The vent-up sensor detects vent-up. When the vent-up is detected, the controller switches from normal conditions to vent-up suppression conditions. The vent-up suppression conditions have at least one of the followings: increasing a rotational speed of the plastication screw to be higher than that in the normal conditions; using retreat-metering when the retreat-metering is not performed in the normal conditions, wherein in the retreat-metering, in addition to a pressure of the resin material, a force in a retreat direction is applied to the injection plunger to move the injection plunger at a predetermined retreat speed in the metering; and increasing the retreat speed of the injection plunger to be higher than that in the normal conditions when the retreat-metering is performed in the normal conditions.

Injection molding machine and method for injection molding

A cassette type mold apparatus includes a sub-runner formed on a parting surface of a fixed side matrix or a movable side matrix, a gate provided in a fixed side cassette mold or a movable side cassette mold and configured to inject a molten resin into a cavity space from the sub-runner, and a hot runner provided on the fixed side matrix so that a tip end thereof is aligned with the sub-runner to be perpendicular to the sub-runner and is in parallel with a mold opening and closing direction. In the cassette type mold apparatus, the movable side cassette mold can be stacked on the fixed side cassette mold in a state in which a cavity and a core are aligned and can be integrally loaded in a direction of a side surface of the entire mold.

Cassette type mold apparatus

A mold apparatus includes a first mold plate formed with a runner flow path, a second mold plate, a runner stripper plate having a through hole that communicates with the runner flow path, a runner locking part formed with an inverse tapered space which communicates with the through hole and has an inverse tapered shape and in which a locking portion made of a molding material is formed, and a runner unlocking means for moving the runner stripper plate away from the runner locking part to unlock the locking portion.

Mold apparatus

A mold apparatus includes first and second mold plates that constitute a cassette mold, a first base mold, a base intermediate mold for loading the first mold plate, a second base mold for loading the second mold plate, a base intermediate mold driving device for positioning and fixing the base intermediate mold at any position between the first and second base molds, and a controller for performing control to position and fix the base intermediate mold so that the first mold plate and the first base mold are in contact with each other when a molded product is taken out.

The cassette mold type injection molding machine controls a first temperature control circuit to supply a heat medium having a heating temperature from a first heating device to a matrix supply path, controls a second temperature control circuit to supply the heat medium having a cooling temperature from a second heating device to the core cavity supply path, and performs cassette mold cool down control in which a bypass control valve is controlled to connect a bypass path and a main body supply path, such that a second heating device or a core cavity supply path is connected to a main body supply path, and thus the heat medium having the heating temperature is supplied to the matrix and the heat medium having the cooling temperature is supplied to a cassette mold main body and a core cavity portion.
