MUMBAI, India, Aug. 12 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617051243 A) filed by Shibaura Machine Co. , Ltd. on April 22, 2026, for Injection Molding Machine And Method For Setting Mold Protection Setting Value.
Inventors include Oba, Atsuya; Matsubayashi, Haruyuki; and Murase, Yasunori.
The application for the patent was published on August 07, 2026, under issue no. 32/2026.
Abstract: An injection molding machine 1 comprises: a fixed die 21 to which a fixed mold 26 is attached; a movable die 22 to which a movable mold 27 is attached and which is disposed in an orientation such that the movable mold 27 faces the fixed mold 26 attached to the fixed die 21; a mold opening/closing mechanism 40 that performs opening/closing and mold-clamping of the movable mold 27 and the fixed mold 26; and a control device 100 for controlling the mold opening/closing mechanism 40. The control device 100 calculates a mold protection set value V on the basis of thrust positional relationship data F indicating the relationship between a movable die thrust T which is a force for moving the movable die 22 to the side where the fixed die 21 is positioned by the mold opening/closing mechanism 40, and a movable die position M which is a position in the moving direction of the movable die 22, the mold protection set value V being a set value for the operation of the movable die 22 for protecting the mold 25 at the time of mold-closing with a low-pressure mold clamping force which is set as a mold clamping force smaller than the maximum mold clamping force by the mold opening/closing mechanism 40.
