In a mould-closing unit (F) for an injection-moulding machine for processing plastics, at least one mould carrier (10), which can be moved in a longitudinal direction (L-L) of the mould-closing unit (F), is arranged on a machine base (14) and between itself and a further mould carrier (12) forms a mould-clamping space (C), in which parts of at least one cyclically openable and closable injection mould (M) can be received. At least one linear guide (16), arranged in the longitudinal direction (L-L) on the machine base (14), serves for guiding the at least one movable mould carrier (10) when there is movement in the longitudinal direction (L-L). The mould carrier is supported on the machine base (14) and/or the at least one linear guide (16) by way of a load take-up (18), which has above the at least one linear guide (16) an articulating region (20) for the at least one movable mould carrier (10), which region is connected to the movable mould carrier with a force fit or material bonding and the stiffness of which is greater in the longitudinal direction (L-L) than in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction (L-L). The forces acting on the guide of the movable mould carrier during the operation of the injection-moulding machine are minimized by the load take-up (18) and/or the articulating region (20) being elliptical in cross section, with the minor axis of the ellipse extending in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction (L-L) of the mould-closing unit (F).

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

A control device of an injection molding machine, the injection molding machine including: a mold clamping device that advances and retracts a movable mold with respect to a fixed mold; and an injection device that injects and fills a molten material into a cavity formed between both the molds, the control device including: a display unit that displays a setting screen for setting molding conditions of the injection molding machine; and a setting unit that sets the molding conditions based on information displayed on the setting screen.

When the deceleration start point is reached, the meter-in side of the hydraulic driving actuator is subjected to a flow rate control to thereby start the deceleration control processing. The position to which the movable unit is moved is detected to use a speed instruction corresponding to the movement position to subject the hydraulic driving actuator to a meter-in control. The position to which the movable unit is moved is detected to calculate the moving speed of the movable unit. Based on the speed instruction, the moving speed is subjected to the feedback control using the meter-out control to the hydraulic driving actuator.
