A method of controlling a hydraulic press wherein changing over from velocity control to pressure control can be effected at an optimum point of time in accordance with a condition of material being filled. When a movable mold half of a metal mold is moved by a hydraulic cylinder to compression mold a work within a cavity defined in the metal mold, the velocity of movement of the mold half by the hydraulic cylinder is controlled until pressurization of the work is started, but after starting of the pressurization, the pressurizing force of the hydraulic cylinder is controlled. During the velocity control, a parameter which varies as the compression proceeds is successively detected during the velocity control, and changing over from the velocity control to the pressure control is effected at a point of time when the detected parameter coincides with a preset value--that is, when the work is fully filled in the cavity. A device for controlling a hydraulic press is also disclosed wherein optimal pressure control can be assured in accordance with a current condition of material for molding.
In a method of controlling a hydraulic press wherein, when at least one of a pair of metal mold halves is moved by a hydraulic cylinder to compression mold a work within a cavity defined between said metal mold halves, the velocity of movement of said at least one metal mold half by said hydraulic cylinder toward the work is controlled until pressurization of the work is started, but after starting of the pressurization, the pressurizing force of said hydraulic cylinder is controlled, the improvement wherein:
