Abstract:
A modular manifold system 10 for an injection molding system having a distributor 18 for receiving molten material from a source, at least one melt tube 26 in fluid communication with the distributor 18 and at least one drop block 44, at least one nozzle assembly 48 in fluid communication with the at least one drop block 44, wherein the at least one melt tube 26 is not directly heated by a heater and may include a sleeve.
Abstract:
A platen-supported system (105) for use with a molding-system platen structure (107), the platen-supported system (105) comprising: a frame assembly (103) connectable with the molding-system platen structure (107); and at least one plasticating device (201) supported by the frame assembly (103). A molding system (100) having a mold frame assembly (203) configured for supporting a molding assembly (200), and the at least one plasticating device (201) located within the mold assembly (200).
