Control device and control method for injection molding machine

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.

Optimizing the Shape of an Object to Facilitate Wrinkle and Stress Reduction

A method implemented by a computing system that facilitates formation of an object from a material comprises receiving an object model that specifies a top surface and a side surface connected to an edge of the top surface via a fillet that extends along the edge. At a particular region along the edge, adjacent planar regions of the side surface define an obtuse angle therebetween. The fillet is adjusted along the edge to have a first radius at a particular distance from the particular region and to have a second radius, smaller than the first radius, proximate the particular region. Output data associated with an adjusted model is communicated to equipment configured to form a mandrel that facilitates formation of the object. Adjusting the fillet to have a smaller radius proximate the particular region facilitates elimination of wrinkles in the material when draped over the mandrel to form the object.
