A control device for an injection molding machine includes a pressure acquisition unit that acquires a resin pressure, a measurement unit that measures an elapsed time period or a rotation amount of the screw from when the screw has reached a predetermined metering position, a reverse rotation control unit that causes the screw to be rotated in reverse from when the screw has reached the predetermined metering position, and a condition determination unit that determines the reverse rotation time period based on a required time period from when the screw has reached the predetermined metering position until when the resin pressure falls to a target pressure, or determines the reverse rotation amount based on a required reverse rotation amount from when the screw has reached the predetermined metering position until when the resin pressure falls to the target pressure.

An injection molding system includes: an injection molding machine where a shaping mold is installed; a material supply device supplying a material to the injection molding machine; a temperature controller controlling a temperature of the shaping mold; a dryer drying a material stored in the material supply device; a controller controlling the injection molding machine; and a casing. The injection molding machine, the material supply device, the temperature controller, the dryer, and the controller are provided inside the casing. The casing has a caster and is configured to be movable.

An injection molding system includes: an injection molding machine configured to inject a molten material into a mold to mold a molded object; a tray moving unit configured to move a plurality of trays in a work area including a placement position; and a robot configured to place the molded object on a tray moved to the placement position among the plurality of trays. The tray moving unit moves a tray after placement, which is a tray on which the molded object is placed by the robot, from the placement position to a position different from the placement position in the work area, and moves a tray before the placement, which is a tray on which the molded object is not yet placed by the robot, from a position different from the placement position in the work area to the placement position.
