To prevent control buttons from being pushed incorrectly.SOLUTION: An operating device 750 of an injection molding machine 10 has a plurality of operation buttons 1, and a control device 700 of the injection molding machine 10 has a specific information provision unit 710 that provides the operator with specific information (such as a sound identifying the operation button 1, audio guidance identifying the operation button 1, etc.) to identify the operation button 1 that the operator intends to press. With this configuration, for example, an image or the like of the operation button 1 can be displayed on a projected portion 11, so that the operator can recognize whether the button he or she is about to press is the desired operation button 1 without having to look at the operation button 1 on the operating device 750, and thus prevent the operator from pushing the operation button 1 incorrectly.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5 【課題】操作ボタンを押し間違えることを防止する。【解決手段】射出成形機１０の操作装置７５０は、複数の操作ボタン１を有し、射出成形機１０の制御装置７００は、操作者が押そうとする前記操作ボタン１を特定するための特定情報（操作ボタン１を特定する音、操作ボタン１を特定する音声ガイダンスなど）を前記操作者に提供する特定情報提供部７１０を有する。この構成により、例えば、操作ボタン１の画像などを被投射部１１に表示させることができるため、オペレータは、操作装置７５０上の操作ボタン１を目視しなくても、押そうとしているボタンが、所望の操作ボタン１であるのか否を認識でき、操作ボタン１の押し間違えを防止できる。【選択図】図５
