Static mixers in hot runners improve polymer mixing while 3D simulation accelerates design optimization for injection molding.

Cycle time is the primary cost measure of the molding process, and cooling represents about 80% of the molding cycle (see Figure 1). The thicker the part, the longer the cycle time. However, the ...

A new patent-protected method and technology for micro molding medical parts, created by Westfall Technik, eliminates cold runners and increases the allowable residence time of material in the machine ...

OFTERING, Austria—Elmet, a manufacturer of equipment for silicone and rubber parts, has released a new, all-electric cold runner for liquid silicone rubber injection molding. The Smartshot E cold ...

Oerlikon HRSflow has introduced an improvement to its HRScool hydraulic cylinder system for hot-runner injection molding, first introduced in 2019, which uses advanced temperature management ...

A cavity plate mechanism option insulates the separator plate from cold runner nozzles, preventing heat transfer into the nozzle gate area and cold runners when not molding. Eimeke said absence of ...
