Multi-Cavity Line Redefines Injection Molding Via Hot Runner Technology

Oerlikon HRSflow’s Multiflow HRS multi-cavity line is designed for the precise production of low shot weight parts, ranging from 0.5 to 120 grams. It is suitable for sectors such as thin-wall packaging, beverage and home, beauty and personal care, medical applications and technical components. The multi-cavity systems offer key advantages, including fast cycle times, high production volumes, consistent part-to-part weight and the ability to process various materials, including PCR compounds and biopolymers. Additional benefits include rapid color changes and good part finishes.

Among the latest solutions, the stack mold system is specifically developed for the efficient injection molding of thin-walled packaging. Its patent-pending design ensures easy assembly and maintenance, enabling a plug-and-play integration that reduces downtime and costs. The solution is optimized for high-filling pressures and features the new Xd series nozzles on a 220 mm hot half plate, providing a cost-effective solution without compromising quality. The demo tool is available at the Oerlikon HRSflow Test Lab, where customers can test various polymers, including bio-based and compostable materials aligning with circular economy principles.

Moreover, Oerlikon HRSflow has recently enhanced its portfolio to deliver efficient turnkey solutions by offering a comprehensive package of hot runner systems and control units. Among the latest user-friendly controllers, the T-Flow HRS represents a new generation of thermal multi-zone control units, delivering reliable and precise temperature control for hot runners in injection molding machines. This controller is universally applicable, capable of managing all system types, from standard setups to the most demanding solutions. It is available in various configurations, accommodating six to 120 heating zones in multiples of six. The intuitive interface streamlines operations, enhancing production efficiency while supporting the company’s commitment to sustainability and technological advancement.
