What is hot runner system?
A hot runner system is an assembly of heated components used in plastic injection molds that inject molten plastic into the cavities of the mold. Each time the mold opens to eject the newly formed plastic parts, the material in the runner is ejected as well, resulting in waste.
Why we use hot runner system?
Hot runners are designed to maximize manufacturing productivity by reducing cycle time. One of the reasons they didn’t take hold when they first came out is that they needed to maintain the molten plastic at a uniform temperature while the injection mold cavity is simultaneously being cooled.
How many types of gates are there in mould?
At that point, there are two main types of gates used. The thermal gate functions much like a normal gate where the material is injected into a cavity and material pressure is held until enough cooling occurs.
What is advantage of hot runner mould?
Because there is no cooling time limit of runner system, the part can be ejected in time after solidification. Many thin-walled parts produced by hot runner injection mold can be formed in less than 5 seconds. Because there is no cold runner in the hot runner mold, there is no production cost.
