An injection molding machine uses a summed, multi-term control law to control ram velocity during the injection stroke of a molding cycle to emulate a user set velocity profile. An automatic calibration method sets no load ram speeds to duplicate user set ram speeds. Finite impulse response filters produce open loop, no load control signals at advanced positions on the velocity profile to account for lag in system response. An adaptive, error term indicative of load disturbance, observed from a preceding cycle is added at the advanced travel position predicted by the finite impulse response filter to produce a predictive open loop, load compensated control signal. Finally, an auto tuned PID controller develops a real time, feedback load disturbance signal summed with the open loop control signal to produce a drive signal for the machine's proportioning valve.
