Injection molding system, control device, injection molding method, and non-transitory computer readable medium storing program

An injection molding system comprising:

• a material imaging unit that images a material before being input from a material dryer that performs pre-drying of the material for injection molding to an injection molding machine;
• a material state acquisition unit that acquires a measurement result of a state of the material based on a captured image of the imaged material;
• and
• a process control unit that controls one or more processes among a process of giving a notification of a measurement result of a state of a molding product, a process of reviewing the material itself for injection molding, a process of reviewing a drying condition of the material dryer, and a process of reviewing a molding condition of the injection molding machine in correspondence with the acquired measurement result of the state of the material.

A control device comprising:

• a material imaging unit that images a material before being input from a material dryer that performs pre-drying of the material for injection molding to an injection molding machine;
• a material state acquisition unit that acquires a measurement result of a state of the material based on a captured image of the imaged material;
• and
• a process control unit that controls one or more processes among a process of giving a notification of the measurement result of the state of the material, a process of reviewing the material itself, a process of reviewing a drying condition of the material dryer, and a process of reviewing a molding condition of the injection molding machine in correspondence with the acquired measurement result of the state of the material.

An injection molding method comprising:

• a step of imaging a material before being input from a material dryer that performs pre-drying of the material for injection molding to an injection molding machine;
• a step of acquiring a measurement result of a state of the material based on a captured image of the imaged material;
• and
• a step of controlling one or more processes among a process of giving a notification of the measurement result of the state of the material, a process of reviewing the material itself, a process of reviewing a drying condition of the material dryer, and a process of reviewing a molding condition of the injection molding machine in correspondence with the acquired measurement result of the state of the material.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program when executed by a processor, causing the processor to:

• image a material before being input from a material dryer that performs pre-drying of the material for injection molding to an injection molding machine;
• acquire a measurement result of a state of the material based on a captured image of the imaged material;
• and
• control one or more processes among a process of giving a notification of the measurement result of the state of the material, a process of reviewing the material itself, a process of reviewing a drying condition of the material dryer, and a process of reviewing a molding condition of the injection molding machine in correspondence with the acquired measurement result of the state of the material.

An injection molding system comprising:

• a material state acquisition unit that acquires a measurement result of a state of the material based on a captured image of the imaged material;
• and
• a process control unit that controls a process for suppressing a molding defect in correspondence with the acquired measurement result of the state of the material.

An injection molding system comprising:

• a molding product imaging unit that images a molding product after injection molding;
• a molding product state acquisition unit that acquires a measurement result of a state of the molding product based on a captured image of the imaged molding product;
• and
• a process control unit that controls a process for suppressing a molding defect in correspondence with the acquired measurement result of the state of the molding product.
