If the mold is the heart of an injection molding system, it is not an exaggeration to compare the hot runner to the main artery of the injection molding system. Blood flows through the veins, and the hot runner transports the molten material to several cavities, achieving balance, efficiency, and consistency. Therefore, the hot runner controller system plays a particularly important role in injection molding production. The hot runner controller can bring higher product quality, production efficiency, and lower material waste rates to the injection molding process. This article will provide you with a detailed introduction to the hot runner controller and the hot runner controller system.
A hot runner controller is a device used to control the temperature balance inside the hot runner system. It is one of the essential components of the hot runner controller system, which is interdependent yet relatively independent. Its accuracy and stability significantly affect the performance of the entire hot runner controller system. A touch screen hot runner controller is a device that continuously maintains the required temperature value with enhanced user interface and control. It mainly detects the temperature of the heating runner through an intelligent computer chip inside the core and then processes the data inside the chip to output the appropriate current value, achieving the temperature control goal.
The advantages of the hot runner controller system include automation of the molding process, reduction of post-processing, reduction of material loss and product costs, improvement of work efficiency and product quality, and ensuring high interchangeability and long life through standardized components.
No post-processing required. The custom hot runner controller system uses gate-less materials, eliminating the need for post-processing and making the entire molding process fully automated. This saves work time, improves work efficiency, and generally, after shutdown, there is no need to open the runner to remove solidified material. When restarting, the only step required is to heat the hot runner controller system to the required temperature.
Low loss, low cost. The hot runner controller system has low pressure loss, avoiding surface condensation of the material in the runner, and reducing injection pressure loss. At the same time, the hot runner controller system can reduce raw material waste and lower product costs. The temperature and pressure are evenly distributed in the cavity, reducing the stress on plastic parts, ensuring uniform density, and producing better products in a shorter molding time with lower injection pressure compared to conventional injection systems.
