Injection molding machine

An injection molding machine having a safety door that can be opened and closed, comprising:

• a door driving unit configured to open and close the safety door;
• a presence detector configured to detect whether or not an operator or object is present within a door operating space of the safety door, or within a predetermined vicinal area of the safety door including the door operating space;
• and
• a controller configured to control the door driving unit with a reference control amount in order to perform a closing operation of the safety door,
• wherein during a time it is detected by the presence detector that an operator or object is present within the vicinal area outside of the door operating space, the controller causes a control amount that controls the door driving unit to decrease from the reference control amount and performs the closing operation of the safety door, and
• during a time it is detected by the presence detector that an operator or object is present within the door operating space, the controller temporarily stops the closing operation of the safety door.
