Abstract
A method for protecting a mold of a servo-driven type mold clamping unit comprises the steps of (a) changing the torque output of the power source generated by a servo-motor subject to the position of a movable die of the mold, and (b) comparing the values set in an encoder of the servo-motor with signal received by the encoder when the movable die is in displacement so as to detect the presence of any foreign objects in the mold for determination of normal/abnormal handling control.
