Abstract

In order to be able to freely define or program in a simple way a certain temperature profile which is exactly adjusted to each injection molding cycle in terms of time and run the same in a cycle-synchronized manner, according to the invention a control device for an injection molding machine is provided, in which several events and/or states which are specific to an injection molding cycle and occur during the injection molding cycle, as well as several types of temperature changes are stored and available to a user for selection. The user can select events and/or states as well as types of temperature changes, associate said events and/or states and types of temperature changes with each other, and form a series from several such associations. The events and/or states occurring successively during the injection molding cycle over the course of time as well as the types of temperature changes associated with said events and/or states result in a temporal curve of the temperature. The invention further relates to an injection molding machine comprising such a control device and a temperature control device, which can be used to control the temperature of injection molding tools or regions of injection molding tools.
