PURPOSE:To abolish a job card, to instantaneously grasp inventory information, to grasp production conditions and to control an operation rate by using terminal personal computers surrounded by means and a host computer. CONSTITUTION:The host computer 13 transmits a program to a terminal equipment 1a. The terminal equipment 1a which has received the program displays molding results on a CRT1b. When defectives occur, a defective registration switch is depressed, and the number of the defectives is inputted. When respective molding machines are stopped, a stop factor is selected from the item of the stop factors in the terminal equipment and a switch is depressed. Next, a time until the operation starting time of the molding machine is counted and it is transmitted in additional at the time of transmitting the results to the host computer 13. The host computer 13 which has received the results information from the terminal equipment 1a displays the operation conditions and the output prediction of respective molding machines on a CRT13a. Thus, the working results can automatically be collected and the working voucher can be abolished, whereby inventory can instantaneously be grasped. Furthermore, production conditions can be grasped and operation control is attained.
