Abstract

A plastification and injection device for an injection molding machine includes a plunger rod on the pressurized piston coupled to a spindle on which the valve body of a directional control valve is guided axially. The spindle is axially rotatable and is coupled to a stepping motor controlled in accordance with the injection pressure and/or the injection rate. The shaft of a hydromotor driving the plastification and injection screw is guided by means of another directional control valve, the valve body of which is guided so as to slide axially on the shaft. And, this shaft is further coupled to another stepping motor. This, upon completion of the plastification process, the direction of rotation of the hydromotor is reversed in order to close the backflow and, because of the interaction of the other stepping motor and the other directional control valve, the screw moves axially by a predetermined amount to close the backflow.
