Molding machine management system

A molding machine management system comprising:

• an injection molding machine configured to alternatively produce a first molded article and a second molded article produced after the first molded article;
• a display configured to display, along a common time axis, identification indicators for identifying the first molded article and the second molded article;
• a memory configured to store a program;
• and
• a processor configured to execute the program so as to:
• receive a production result for the first molded article including a molding result period for the first molded article and an arrangement result period for the first molded article from the injection molding machine;
• read, from the memory, a production plan for the second molded article including a molding planned period for the second molded article and an arrangement planned period for the second molded article;
• receive an event corresponding to an abnormality from the injection molding machine;
• read, from the memory, a scheduled end time of the production plan for the second molded article;
• and
• cause the display to display:
• the production result for the first molded article and the production plan for the second molded article in parallel along the common time axis;
• a current timeline extending perpendicular to the common time axis;
• a first mark corresponding to the event of the abnormality directly adjacent to the production result for the first molded article;
• and
• a second mark corresponding to the scheduled end time on a line extending from the production plan for the second molded article in parallel along the common time axis.
