Thermal Simulation Provides Additional Security for Hot Runners

In the future, Hasco Hot Runner, a business unit of Hasco, says it will offer its customers additional security with thermal simulation to meet the challenges of high-performance plastics with ever narrowing processing temperature windows. According to Hasco, thermal irregularities or hot spots are already detected during the design process and can be ideally designed by adjusting the heating curve and optimizing the position of the thermal sensor. As a result, the temperature curve of the manifold can be analyzed, as well as the temperature curve of the plastic in the melt channel. When processing temperature-sensitive plastics in particular, the process reliability and the production quality are significantly increased.

The new simulation tool is directly integrated in the design process at Hasco Hot Runner and reportedly enables an automatic and fast analysis. This avoids any loss of time in the creation of the 3D data and the customer receives the design data at the usual speed.

In combination with the already standard filling simulations and the experienced staff, Hasco Hot Runner says it offers its customers the best possible security for the individual challenges in hot runner technology.
