摘要： A hot runner process controller configured to monitor the status and operation of a hot runner system to autonomously generate information to improve the quality of injection molding process of a hot runner system having an inlet nozzle, one or more manifolds and one or more nozzles with actuator or without actuator, and one or more heating elements, the hot runner process controller is self-operating, and independent from the injection molding machine, includes: one or more sensors located on, in or at the hot runner system to detect the status and/or the operation of the hot runner system, and a processing unit and a memory. The processing unit is connected to the one or more sensors, wherein the memory stores data and program codes. The processing unit is configured to load and execute the program code to compare sensor information with the stored data and to determine if the hot runner system is in an operable status, and in case the hot runner system is in an operable status, configured to generate status information to activate the one or more heating elements and/or the one or more actuators enabling a production operation of the injection molding machine. In case the hot runner system is not in an operable status, configured to generate status information to deactivate the one or more heating elements and/or close or deactivate the one or more actuators disabling a production operation of the injection molding machine.

摘要： Cooling device for the drive for the adjustment of the needle (5) of a needle valve nozzle (3) in hot runner systems for injection molding machines, wherein the drive is mounted on the hot runner manifold (1) of the injection molding machine and wherein the drive housing (10), in which the drive is accommodated, is connected, on the side facing the hot runner manifold (1), with a heat sink (20) of the cooling device, which heat sink is formed as a separate part. According to the invention, the heat sink (20) of the cooling device is mounted on the side of the drive housing facing the hot runner manifold (1) without bearing the weight of the drive housing (10). The heat sink (20) is provided with through-holes, through which the supports (12), which are directly or indirectly connected to the hot runner manifold (1), can extend freely, to which supports the drive housing (10) is attached (FIG. 1).

摘要： An injection mold apparatus having two halves, a core portion and a cavity portion. One or more gas injection devices, such as porous metal devices, are located in either of the two portions of the mold. Once a charge of hot melted plastic is injected into the mold cavity, gas is injected through gas injection devices forcing the hot plastic against the opposite mold half and into any recesses and grooves. Gas seals are formed by the plastic to prevent gas in the mold cavity from reaching the exterior surface of the molded part during shrinkage of the plastic. The centers of mass of the plastic at rib intersections are optimally positioned to eliminate sink marks on the external finished surfaces of the molded parts.
