Customer requirements
In this particular application, it was a
question of manufacturing PP caps in a 64cavity mould with fast delivery of the
complete, pre-wired and adjusted system,
including mould plates, connection box and
connector-ready, pre-configured temperature
controller.

All rights reserved. Errors and omissions excepted.

Solution
This application was implemented using an
externally heated, 64-cavity hot runner
system with face fit between nozzles and
manifold. The manifold system consisted of 2
block manifolds with 32 nozzles each, fed by
an H-manifold. All runners are naturally
balanced. Gating with the hot runner was
direct, in the centre of the moulded part. To
suit this system with a large number of
cavities, a mobile temperature controller was
supplied, ready to plug in.

Solution
In the implementation of this application, two
identical externally heated 16-gate hot runner
systems with nozzles sliding on the manifold
were employed. The runner systems each
consisted of two T-shaped runners linked by
an I-shaped runner. The cavity was directly
gated with the hot runner to the moulding
surface via valve gate nozzles with 4 nozzles
being actuated by one actuator. The system
was supplied as hot half, i.e. including mould
plates, ready installed and adjusted as well
as wired ready for plugging in and with the
necessary hose connections.

Customer's requirements
This application involved the production of
guide rollers of POM for the car window
mechanism with the largest possible number
of cavities on an existing, relatively small
injection moulding machine. The cavities
were to be gated directly with the hot runner
and at several points around the perimeter of
the moulding in order to ensure good
concentricity.

Solution
In the implementation of this application, an
externally heated 8-port hot runner system
with mutli-tip face fit manifold nozzles was
employed. The runner was designed in an H
shape and had a long gating neck due the
stack design of the mould. The nozzles were
positioned on both sides of the runner. The
cavity was directly gated via open multi-tip
nozzles with torpedo at 3 points on the side
surface of each moulding.

Solution
In the implementation of this application, a
rheologically balanced, externally heated 7port hot runner system with face fit manifold
nozzles was employed. Manifold form and
nozzle lengths were specially adapted to the
part contour and the required injection points.
The cavities were gated via cold sub-runners
that were fed by open nozzles with torpedo.
The outstanding feature of this system lies in
the combination of nozzles of three different
sizes on one manifold, whereby the largest of
the nozzles feeds two cavities.

Customer's requirements
This application involved the production of
fan wheels for car air conditioning systems
with a 2-cavity mould. Until now the fan
wheels had been produced with a singlecavity mould to ensure the necessary
precision. The demand on the production
with a multi-cavity nozzle was that at least
the same precision in dimensions and
concentricity be achieved.
Solution
In the implementation of this application, an
externally heated 2-port hot runner system
with face fit manifold and melt pressure
control was employed. The runner was
designed in the standard form (I). The cavity
was gated via cold sub-runners that were fed
by valve gate nozzles. A pressure-controlled
melt valve was installed upline of each
nozzle with which the flow cross-section in
the runner could be varied dynamically and
infinitely online and in real time or could be
held constant. This permitted not only gentle
opening and closing but also the generation
of individual pressure profiles and hence
individual filling conditions during the filling
and holding pressure phases for each
individual nozzle.

and stability reasons both parts had to be
made from the same material and produced
under the same conditions.

Solution
In the implementation of this application, an
externally heated 2-port hot runner system
with face fit manifold and melt pressure
control was employed. The runner was
designed in the standard form (I). The cavity

In the implementation of this application, an

Manifold form and nozzle lengths were

with sprue via valve gate nozzles. A
pressure-controlled melt valve was installed
upline of each nozzle with which the flow
cross-section in the runner could be varied
dynamically and infinitely online and in real

pressure profiles and hence individual filling
conditions during the filling and holding
pressure phases for each individual nozzle.

Customer's requirements
This application involved the production of
plastic front end modulse of long glass fibrereinforced PP for use in car bodies. The
cavity was to be filled sequentially.

All rights reserved. Errors and omissions excepted.

Solution
In the implementation of this application, an
externally heated 11-port runner system with
long, narrow screw fit valve gate manifold
nozzles was employed. Manifold form and
nozzle lengths were specially adapted to the
part contour and the required injection points.
The cavity was gated both directly with hot
runner to the moulding surface and via cold
sub-runners. Both were equipped with valve
gate nozzles. The hot runner system was
correspondingly optimised and equipped for
the processing of long glass fibre-reinforced
material.

Benefits

Gentle processing and minimised glass


fibre shortening thanks to optimised and
runner and correspond equipment of the
hot runner system

Optimisation of the mould cavity filling by


temporally offset opening and closing of
the needles

Optimum positioning of the gates for filling


thanks to runner form and nozzle lengths
adapted to the moulding contour

Production with minimised sprue waste

Customer's requirements
This application involved the production of
dash boards of PPO with 10% glass fibre
content for the car interior using the cascade
process.

Solution
In the implementation of this application, an
externally heated 10-port runner system with
screw fit nozzles was employed. Manifold
form and nozzle lengths were specially
adapted to the part contour and the required
injection points. The cavity was gated directly
with hot runner to the surface of the moulding
via needle valve nozzles.

Customer's requirements
This application involved the production of
windows of PC for cars. The transparent
base element of the window was to be
produced using the injection-compression
moulding process and then surrounded with
a dark edge in the 2-component process.
The mould for this process was designed as
a turning platen mould.
Solution
In the implementation of this application, an
externally heated 1-port runner system with a
screw fit manifold nozzle was employed for
the production of the base element. The
cavity was gated made via a film gate with
sprue that was fed by an open nozzle. For
the dark edge of the window, an externally
heated 11-port runner system with long,
narrow screw fit valve gate manifold nozzles
was employed. Manifold form and nozzle
lengths were specially adapted to the part
contour and the required injection points. The
cavity was gated directly with hot runner to
the surface of the moulding via valve gate
nozzles.
