Valve gate injection molding.

A hot runner system offers some significant advantages in injection molding. Consider gate options and location when designing parts for injection molding in injection molding each cavity in a mold must contain a small opening called a gate which allows hot plastic to enter the cavity before passing through and around its internal features until filled. Once this specific amount passes through the barrel of the injection molding equipment and out the nozzle the valve gate closes instantly preventing any more plastic from passing through. Ultra nozzles available for valve gate.

Ultra 350 ultra 500 ultra 750 ultra 1000. See application overview and features. A key component of such a system is the valve gate. The valve gate shuts off the flow of molten plastic to the mold at a specific time right at the part surface.

Mold designs using hot runner thermal gated systems and valve gate systems are often specified to provide the utmost in high performance molding. Husky injection molding systems is the world s largest brand name supplier of injection molding equipment and services to the plastics industry.
