Mold and Hot Runner Technology Combines Temperature and Process Control

At K 2019, Barnes Molding Solutions, including brands Foboha, Gammaflux, männer, Priamus, Synventive and Thermoplay, covers the entire spectrum of moldmaking and hot runner technology, including temperature control and process control technology.
