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.

An injection molding system including an injection molding apparatus that performs injection molding, and a conveyor apparatus configured to insert a mold through an opening of the injection molding apparatus, wherein the improvement to the injection molding system includes the injection molding apparatus further comprising a first door configured to restrict access via a first opening when a first door is closed and a second door configured to restrict access via a second opening when a second door is closed, and a controller configured to start injection molding with the mold in a case where the first door is partially opened and the second door is closed.

An injection moulding machine having a machine controller and a control unit, capable of starting up the injection moulding machine from a switched-off mode or a standby mode into a production operation for producing injection-moulded parts and to shut down back into a switched-off or standby mode. Start-up and shutdown of the injection moulding machine are each divided into a number of phases, and a sequence of specific machine movement commands and/or specific machine mode change commands is pre-programmed for each phase of start-up and for each phase of shutdown. One or more control elements are provided on the control unit which, when actuated, activate a pre-programmed sequence so that a phase of start-up or shutdown can be started, the functions of start-up or shutdown of the injection moulding machine associated with the machine movement command and/or the machine mode change command of this sequence then being triggered.
