VIDEO: Mold Component Advancements & Hot Runner Insights

This interview with PCS Company President Angela Elsey and Lead Product Development Ravishankar Kalvai shares insights on advancements in mold components, hot runner temperature control, custom manifold configuration, and products that address cycle time, quality and sustainability concerns. 

Learn about:

• The essential features of an optimal hot runner temperature control system, including fast control response, intuitive operation and simplified controller functions that enhance communication between the controller and injection molding machine, reducing cost and downtime while allowing on-site or remote access to data and control systems.
• Standard controller range of 6-120 zones and features that enable faster error detection, analysis and feedback.
• Technologies that address cycle time and quality challenges, such as integrally heated sprue bushings that protect the heater and replaceable thermocouple while providing high heat transfer capabilities. The streamlined flow channel and reverse taper gate design are also highlighted.
• Custom manifold configurator, which puts the capability to build and customize manifolds with specific accessories at customers' fingertips.
• The ways these products and processes contribute to a more sustainable economy.
