Valve Gate <strong>Components</strong> Simplify Installation<br />

of <strong>Hot</strong> Runner System in Injection <strong>Mould</strong><br />

The hot runner product manufacturer<br />

Synventive Molding Solutions<br />

has added two items to its line: the<br />

Model 06E threaded/screw-fit hot<br />

runner nozzle <strong>and</strong> Model PNC3008<br />

pneumatic bolt-on actuator for valve<br />

gate hot runner systems with Plug’n<br />

Play ® functionality.<br />

The Model 06E nozzle represents an<br />

enhancement of Synventive’s offering<br />

of small, threaded, leakproof manifold<br />

nozzles. It is supplied in thermal<br />

gate <strong>and</strong> valve gate options, features<br />

a 6-mm flow bore (with 20-mm<br />

mould cutout) <strong>and</strong> is designed for<br />

small shot weights up to 100 g per<br />

nozzle. Being threaded into the manifold,<br />

the 06E nozzle provides a leakproof<br />

system without critical stackup<br />

dimensions to be maintained.<br />

The nozzle comes in lengths of 60 to<br />

200 mm. It is externally heated by<br />

replaceable heaters with integrated,<br />

replaceable thermocouples.<br />

When Model 06E nozzles are used<br />

as a valve gate system <strong>and</strong> combined<br />

with a Synventive bolt-on actuator,<br />

the complete hot runner system is<br />

supplied prewired <strong>and</strong> preassembled<br />

<strong>and</strong> without any need for hoses; the<br />

lines are drilled into the top clamp<br />

plate. This configuration allows for<br />

simple Plug’n Play mould installation.<br />

The PNC3008 bolt-on valve gate<br />

actuator also simplifies hot runner<br />

installation in the mould by providing<br />

Plug’n Play capability. Among the key<br />

features of the actuator is a customer-supplied<br />

cover plate that allows<br />

the valve pin to be removed or adjusted<br />

without necessitating removal of<br />

the top clamp plate. In turn, the top<br />

clamp plate can be removed without<br />

valve pins having to be removed from<br />

the hot runner. No extra pneumatic<br />

or cooling hoses are required, nor are<br />

side-force/load-on valve pins; the pins<br />

are perfectly aligned. Active cooling is<br />

provided through the back plate.<br />

The systems are specifi cally designed for largevolume<br />

production with short cycle times <strong>and</strong><br />

for processing resins with narrow processing<br />

windows.<br />

Copied by many, männer‘s valve gate system is<br />

the original that lives up to its promise!<br />
