INJECTION MOLDING MACHINE WITH VISCOSITY MEASURING FUNCTION AND METHOD FOR MEASURING VISCOSITY USING INJECTION MOLDING MACHINE

摘要

A nozzle is attached to a heating cylinder via a nozzle adapter. A sensor for pressure measurement is attached to the nozzle adapter. A molten resin is injected into the air with a front of the nozzle open, and a resin pressure is measured by pressure measuring unit while the molten resin is being injected into the air. Based on the resin pressure, the viscosity of the injected molten resin is determined.
