An injection molding machine management system, which manages an injection molding unit including an injection molding machine and a peripheral device that performs a previous step or a subsequent step of a molding step, includes a first display unit that displays a first screen for displaying a state of the molding step of the injection molding machine. The first screen includes a first screen area and a second screen area. The first screen area displays a first indicator related to quality in the molding step of the injection molding machine, and the second screen area displays a second indicator related to quality in the previous step of the molding step or the subsequent step of the molding step.

The present description concerns a device for controlling parts being manufactured, comprising at least one image sensor configured to form, for each part at last one first image by thermography and at least one second image by polarimetry.

A method is provided for moving a movable mold mounting plate of a molding machine, in which the movable mold mounting plate is movable relative to a stationary mold mounting plate and the mold mounting plates are kinematically connected to each other, and in which a drive mechanism for moving the movable mold mounting plate is provided. Molding tool parts arranged on the mold mounting plates are brought into abutment to each other in a closed state, and a temporally changeable tilting movement of the mold mounting plates relative to each other occurs by the movement of the movable mold mounting plate. The movable mold mounting plate is moved by the drive mechanism and/or the stationary mold mounting plate is moved by an injection device in such a way that when reaching a predeterminable distance of the mold mounting plates relative to each other, a parameter representing the tilting movement of the mold mounting plates relative to each other is less than or equal to a presettable value, preferably equal to zero.

A plasticizing device includes a flat screw including a groove forming surface in which a groove is formed, a barrel having a facing surface and a communication hole formed in the facing surface, the communication hole allowing a plasticized material to flow out, a heating unit, a flow path through which the plasticized material flows, a nozzle communicating with the flow path, a plurality of measurement units configured to measure pressures or temperatures in the flow path, an aspiration delivery unit, including a cylinder, having a branch flow path and a plunger configured to move in the cylinder so as to aspirate the plasticized material into the branch flow path or deliver the aspirated plasticized material to the nozzle, and a control unit configured to identify a state of the plasticized material in the flow path based on measurement values of the measurement units.

An injection molding system includes a molding device, an inspection device configured to inspect a molded product and a control device that includes a storage unit, and a reception unit configured to receive a change content of a parameter included in a standard molding condition. The control device executes a first control of forming the molded product under a second molding condition in which the parameter is changed based on the change content, a second control of forming the molded product under a third molding condition in which the same parameter is changed, a third control of associating the second molding condition with an inspection result of the molded product formed under the second molding condition and storing the association, and a fourth control of associating the third molding condition with the inspection result of the molded product formed under the third molding condition and storing the association.
