Abstract
An injection molding machine generally comprises a heating cylinder, a screw rotated and reciprocated in the heating cylinder and a screw drive system. The screw drive system comprises two motors and two sensors connected respectively thereto which are automatically controlled by a control system in connection with a screw revolution number and a screw back pressure, or independently so as to accurately carry out the resin measuring process. The control system performs an adaptive control of a motion control system inclusive of the screw and the screw drive system in response to a screw speed instruction, a screw revolution number feedback signal, and a screw position feedback signal in accordance with various control modes.
