Molding support device for injection molding machine

A molding support device for an injection molding machine for performing a molding support to an injection molding machine to inject plasticized molten resin with a screw to fill a metal mold with the resin, characterized in comprising:

• a basic data input unit that inputs basic data including molding conditions data related to at least molding conditions and screw data related to the form of the screw;
• a calculation formula data setting unit that sets solid phase rate calculation formula data to calculate, based on this basic data, the solid phase rate of the molten resin in the heating cylinder;
• a calculation processing function unit that has a solid phase rate calculation processing unit to use calculation processing based on the basic data and the solid phase rate calculation formula data to calculate an estimated solid phase rate of the molten resin at the measurement completion;
• and
• an output processing function unit that performs display processing to display information related to the estimated solid phase rate on a display.
