Since it is pressure-fed to the oil chamber 1a, the piston rod 1r
Moves the mold by a distance equal to a value obtained by dividing the amount of pressure oil supply by the effective cross-sectional area of the mold oil chamber 1a of the mold clamping cylinder 1.
a, 5a are strongly clamped. As described above, the piston rod 1r, that is, the crosshead 2a is accurately moved to a predetermined position in accordance with the capacity of the auxiliary oil chamber 20b of the operation auxiliary cylinder 20, and a mold clamping force corresponding to the moved position is generated.
The molds 3a and 5a whose parting surfaces are open are clamped and the molten resin in the mold cavity is compressed by the accurate compression force and compression amount. Unlike the case where the compression is performed, the control accuracy of the compression force and the compression amount during the injection compression molding is improved.
