In the first conventional example, a large amount of cooling medium is used when the temperature of the mold is kept constant by reducing the influence on the difference in heat quantity of the mold when the resin is inside the mold and when it is not inside the mold. However, when the resin is not in the mold, there is no heat source, so only cooling proceeds and supercooling occurs. Also,
In order to prevent this supercooling, the amount of the cooling medium must be reduced and the cooling time will be long.

According to the above method, the mold temperature is set in advance by setting the control range, and the flow rate adjusting valve is opened when the resin material enters the mold and is above the set control temperature. Then, a large amount of cooling medium flows, which serves to lower the mold temperature. When the mold temperature is within the control range, the opening of the flow rate adjusting valve is decreased and the flow rate is decreased according to the decrease of the mold temperature. If the mold temperature is below the set temperature,
The flow rate control valve is closed to prevent the flow rate from becoming 0 and further reducing the mold temperature.
