What is External Heating (Coil Heater)?
Coil heaters have been introduced to the hot runner system – greatly increasing the cycle speed and the quality of the product produced. […]
What is Cartridge Heater?
Cartridge heaters are utilized around the flow channel to ensure uniform temperature. It is important to keep the distance between the heaters and the manifold equal or greater than 1x the diameter of the heating. […]
Modern mold temperature control technology
A new mold temperature control technology has been developed that affects the two most important things in mold cooling: flow rate and temperature. […]
Introduction to Tubular Heating Elements
Tubular heating elements are inserted into a milled slot into the manifold. This allows for a more accurate location of heat at the areas that require the most . […]
How to identify Thermal Insulation Boards
Thermal Load StabilityOxidizing decay of organic components in thermal insulation boards increases with rising temperatures. Continuous thermal load is defined by the temperature at which the application of a particular grade can be technically and economically justified, so that the lifetime will extend to several years. […]
explain the ready to go mold
“I’m a great moldmaker. I know my trade. My company has great people, the best equipment and we can cut anything. […]
How to successfully install a set of hot runner system
Selecting the right heater for a molding application is critical to the success of any operation. The most common heating elements specified for use in molds are cartridge, tubular and strip heaters. […]
How to get a balancing process
When more than one gate is required within a system, the question of balance is raised. When running multicavity molds, it’s important that all the gates perform identically. This is especially true when molding highly toleranced and thin wall components. […]
How to Accelerates your Leadtimes in production
Fierce competition within the plastics industry is driving productivity and the need to do more with less. These same forces demand a very fast part-to-production leadtime to win OEM molding programs, and, going beyond these challenges, require mold builders and processors to qualify and test molds within very tight time parameters. […]
What is the Data Exchange core?
To be able to approach CAD data translation well, the product you select needs to have robust kernel technology that allows the transfer of data based on known rules and tolerances of each specific CAD system. […]
