The exact method with small time-lag of detecting injection pressure for controlling pressure in an electric-motor driven injection molding machine without using a pressure detector has been asked for because the pressure detector is very expensive, necessitates troublesome works for mounting, an electric protection against noise and the works for zero-point and span adjustings and causes a complicate mechanical structure. The present invention uses a high-gain observer which contains the discrete-time arithmetic expressions derived from a mathematical model of an injection and pressure application mechanism in an electric-motor driven injection molding machine consisting of state equations and outputs an estimate of injection pressure, which is one of the state variables of the above state equations, by using a screw position signal and a servomotor current demand signal or actual motor current signal as inputs. The high-gain observer obtains the exact injection pressure estimate with very small time-lag without using a pressure detector. Thus the estimate of injection pressure fed by the high-gain observer can be adopted as a feedback signal of actual injection pressure for controlling injection pressure.

An injection screw position Xa, injection speed Va, and injection pressure Pa are read. A deceleration distance D the injection screw moves from the point where the injection operation has been stopped at the current moment to be decelerated by maximum deceleration till the point where the injection speed is reduced to zero is determined from a corrected deceleration in which the amount of correction α is added to a predetermined deceleration A inherent in the machine and the read injection speed Va. The determined deceleration distance D is multiplied by the amount of change in injection pressure with respect to the amount of change in the injection screw position to determine a predicted increment in pressure (D·ΔP / ΔX). The predicted increment in pressure is added to the current injection pressure Pa to determine an injection pressure Pa* predicted when the screw is suddenly decelerated at the current moment. If the predicted injection pressure Pa* exceeds the predetermined limit pressure Pmax, the injection operation is stopped to decelerate the screw.
