1. Cylindrical Valve Gate

Superior gate quality and perfect positioning for maximum performance

2. Insulating Ring

Provides thermal insulation, ensures precise nozzle centering, and offers a reliable sealing function.

3. Nozzle Heater Band

Ensures uniform heating of the nozzle for consistent melt flow and improved part quality.

4. Replaceable Valve Pin Bushing

Integrated into the nozzle to prevent bending of pin during thermal expansion of manifold.

5. Manifold Heater

Tubular heating elements embedded in heat transfer cement to ensure long life and uniform temperature distribution

6. Leakproofed Manifold

Ensures reliable, temperature-independent sealing with balanced melt flow and no stagnation, hardened block for long durability

7. Insulation Plate

Reduces thermal radiation

8. Valve Pin

Installation/removal possible without dismantling the mold.

9. Pneumatic

Cleanroom-compatible tandem cylinder, small unit size with high closing force.

  • Precentered Cylindrical Valve Gate

     

    During the closing movement, the valve pin is first precentered by an angled guide area and then positioned perfectly in the gate orifice by means of a cylindrical guide. Nozzle and valve pin are designed to provide maximum performance and extreme durability.
