To suppress abnormality of a forming in production of the forming which uses a power compression forming machine, or wear of a constituent of the forming machine.SOLUTION: A powder compression forming machine which fills up powder into a mortar hole, compresses the powder by means of an upper pestle and a lower pestle and, thereby, forms a forming, or a control device C for controlling a powder feeding device which feeds powder to the powder compression forming machine performs increasing/decreasing adjustment of the amount of lubricant to be mixed into the powder, the amount of the lubricant to be coated onto the inner circumference and a pestle top or the length of mixing time of the lubricant to be mixed to the powder and the powder, in accordance with the presence or absence of abnormality of the forming, a pressure applied to the lower pestle when the forming is extruded from the mortar hole, a temperature of the mortar hole, the upper pestle or the lower pestle, a temperature of the powder, or a humidity of the powder.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 16【課題】粉体圧縮成形機を使用した成形品の生産における成形品の異常、又は成形機の構成部材の損耗を抑制する。【解決手段】臼孔に粉体を充填しその粉体を上杵及び下杵により圧縮することで成形品を成形する粉体圧縮成形機、又は粉体圧縮成形機に対して粉体を供給する粉体供給装置を制御するものであって、成形品の異常の有無、成形品を臼孔から押し出す際に下杵に加わる圧力、臼孔、上杵若しくは下杵の温度、粉体の温度、又は粉体の湿度に応じて、粉体に混入する滑沢剤の量、臼孔の内周及び杵先に塗布する滑沢剤の量、又は粉体に混入する滑沢剤と当該粉体との混合時間の長さを増減調整する制御装置Ｃを構成した。【選択図】図１６
