Patent ID: 8568631

Claim:
A screw control method of an injection molding machine which includes a barrel into which a resin is inserted, a screw that is installed to be rotatable inside the barrel, a check ring that is disposed on a rear side of a screw head to prevent backflow of the melted resin, and a controller that controls operations of the screw, the method comprising: measuring an amount of resin to be injected, and continuously inserting the resin into the barrel until the amount of resin reaches the measured amount of resin; completing the measurement while melting the resin inserted into the barrel through rotation of the screw; stopping the rotation of the screw after completing the measurement of the resin; after retracting the screw of which the rotation is stopped a pre-set distance, advancing the screw a pre-set distance again; and performing injection molding of the melted resin by advancing the screw, wherein the rotation, advance, and retraction operations of the screw are made according to control signals of the controller, wherein the pre-set retraction and advance distances of the screw are set by an operation stroke (L) of the check ring, and wherein the pre-set retraction distance of the screw with respect to the stroke distance (L) of the check ring is equal to or greater than 1 L, and a difference between the retraction distance and the advance distance is equal to or greater than 0.5 L.
