April 2022
Spring officially started in March. We have sprung forward 1 hour into daylight savings time. It would be nice to not have to change time twice a year but that’s another story for another day. Last weekend in Tennessee, it was in the 70os and nice, this weekend they are calling for potential snow and temperatures at night in the teens. If you would track the weather for the month of March and display it as a histogram, you could say this temperature is out of control. There is not a whole lot we can do to get the outdoor temperature into a controlled condition.
In the plastic injection molding industry, we not only can control temperature, but it is necessary to control temperatures. Depending on the resin you are processing, there is an ideal temperature you achieve to keep the melt liquid until the cavity is filled, the injection pressure is reduced, and the cooling starts. Whether you are using a single cavity mono-drop hot runner or a multi-drop manifold system the temperature control is important for producing the quality of parts your customer demand.
FISA is a distributor for ITC Hot Runner Temperature Controllers. We can supply up to a 12- zone standard control unit with either an analog or digital control modules. The cables can be supplied with a standard power and thermocouple connectors, or we can match your existing manufacturer of connectors, such as Harting or Nanaboshi for example. If you want more functionality and reporting capabilities, the Visions 3000 system can provide that plus much more.
To control the tool temperature, we offer TempTek water circulating temperature controllers. They can provide process water temperatures form 30oF to 300oF. They are sized from 35 GPM to 100 GPM systems.
Both temperature controllers, ITC and TempTek, are manufactured in the USA. Contact me to learn more about either of these control systems.
Don’t forget to contact me to get a quote for your replacement hot runner components. We have a complete stock of these items on the shelf and can ship 1-day ARO.
So, until next month, be safe, dress in layers, keep making good parts.
