    摘要: An injection molding apparatus includes a first upstream mold having a first gate opening into which a first molding material flows, a second upstream mold having a second gate opening into which a second molding material flows, a first injection unit injecting the first material through the first gate opening, a second injection unit injecting the second material through the second gate opening, and a downstream mold clampable with each of the first and second upstream molds. The second material is injected by the second injection unit after the first material is injected by the first injection unit. The second gate opening is separated further from the downstream mold than the first gate opening, and a volume of a second cavity partitioned by the second upstream mold and the downstream mold is larger than that of a first cavity partitioned by the first upstream mold and the downstream mold.

    摘要: An injection molding apparatus includes: a first fixed mold attachment and detachment unit configured to attach and detach a first fixed mold; a second fixed mold attachment and detachment unit configured to attach and detach a second fixed mold; a first movable mold attachment and detachment unit configured to attach and detach a first movable mold; a first injection unit configured to inject a first molding material through a first gate opening of the first fixed mold; a second injection unit configured to inject a second molding material through a second gate opening of the second fixed mold; and a position changing unit configured to change a position of the first movable mold attachment and detachment unit such that the first movable mold is located at a position facing the first fixed mold or the second fixed mold. The position changing unit includes: a driving unit, a rotation shaft member configured to rotate by the driving unit, and a rotation disk coupled to the rotation shaft member and provided with the first movable mold attachment and detachment unit. The rotation disk is configured to rotate about a rotation axis of the rotation shaft member, and a flow path that communicates with the first movable mold and through which a medium flows is formed in the rotation shaft member.

    摘要: An injection molding apparatus includes an injection-molding mold including a fixed mold and a movable mold, the fixed mold having a gate opening into which a molding material flows, the movable mold having a cavity and being configured to be separated from the fixed mold during mold opening; a hot runner including a nozzle having a channel that guides the molding material to the gate opening, and a heater, the hot runner being disposed in the fixed mold; and a control unit that controls a temperature of the heater to adjust a temperature of the hot runner. The control unit controls the temperature of the heater to a first temperature when the molding material is injected from the hot runner to the cavity, and after the injection of the molding material is completed, controls the temperature of the heater to a second temperature that is higher than the first temperature.

    摘要: An injection molding system includes: an injection molding machine configured to operate in accordance with a command generated using a first language, and inject a molten material into a mold to mold a molded object; a robot configured to operate in accordance with a command generated using a second language, and convey the molded object; and a control device configured to control the injection molding machine and the robot. When determining that an error occurs in at least one of the injection molding machine and the robot, the control device transmits, to the injection molding machine, a command generated using the first language and for causing the injection molding machine to execute a return operation, and transmits, to the robot, a command interpretable by the second language and for causing the robot to execute a return operation, so as to cause the injection molding machine and the robot to execute the return operations.
