Hot runners are an advanced technology in plastic injection molding, and their materials play a very good role in injection molding.
The machine nozzle is held in the molten state to the cavity and is not ejected.
constitution
There are many hot runner manufacturers and product lines, but a typical hot runner system is made up of:
(1) manifold
(2) Nozzle
(3) Temperature controller
(4) Accessories
Advantage
• Potentially faster cycle times.
Save materials. No material wasted. Plastic materials are expensive, which makes a lot of sense for engineering.
• Improve the quality of molded parts. Parts formed from hot runners usually have a good appearance quality.
• No robots or people are needed to eliminate athletes.
• Can accommodate larger parts.
Disadvantage
• Higher mold costs
• Color cannot be easily changed
• Higher maintenance costs and potential downtime
• may not be suitable for certain heat sensitive materials
