typically these questions are too technical for yahoo answers, i would try an engineering forum for things like this, not many manufacturing guys on here.my guess is that, your sensor is giving a false reading. i would check the nozzle to see if there is something funny going on there that is messing with the sensor. I dont know what kind of sensor it is, but a good clean may do the job.i would love to know where you get an injection molding machine, thought they were pretty expensive.
