Abstract
An injection molding apparatus includes an electric motor, a torque variable mechanism that changes an output torque of the electric motor, and a screw driving unit that transmits the output torque of the torque variable mechanism to a feed screw, whereby the feed screw is turned by the electric motor, the torque variable mechanism and the screw driving unit. The torque variable mechanism applies, to the feed screw, a torque equivalent to a hydraulic drive. The electric motor is interchangeable with a hydraulic motor to enable the injection molding apparatus to change between electric and hydraulic drive of the feed screw.
