When an injection molding machine performs molding, the mold clamping force on the mold is adjusted on the basis of a mold displacement of the mold or the injection peak pressure and injection foremost position so that the molding is performed without causing flash and by an appropriate mold clamping force with which energy can be reduced. The amount of mold displacement and also the injection peak pressure and the injection foremost position are monitored during automatic operation. If there occurs no mold displacement change exceeding a threshold or if there occurs no injection peak pressure anomaly or injection foremost position anomaly exceeding thresholds, the automatic operation is continued. If the mold displacement change occurs or if the injection peak pressure anomaly and the injection foremost position anomaly occur, the operation of the injection molding machine is stopped.

A control device for an injection molding machine including a cylinder into which a resin is supplied and a screw that moves forward and rearward and rotates inside the cylinder, includes a metering control unit that performs metering of the resin inside the cylinder by controlling forward rotation and rearward movement of the screw until the screw has been moved rearward to a predetermined metering position, based on predetermined metering conditions, a rearward movement speed acquisition unit acquiring a rearward movement speed of the screw, a speed determination unit that determines a suck back speed for causing a resin pressure to reach a target pressure, based on the rearward movement speed acquired during metering by the rearward movement speed acquisition unit, and a suck back control unit causing the screw to move further rearward based on the suck back speed, after the screw has reached the predetermined metering position.
