Valve Gate Actuators Built Without O-Rings to Withstand Wear
Mold Hotrunner Solutions Inc. (MHS) valve gate actuators are built entirely without o-rings so that they can withstand being worn out by force or heat, even at temperatures of 850°F.
Mold Hotrunner Solutions Inc. (MHS) expanded its line of cooling-free valve gate actuators to cover a full range of injection molding applications. MHS has expanded both product lines for the new internally actuated Rheo-Pro iVG nozzles and the manifold mounted black box cylinders. MHS says that both product lines for the new internally actuated Rheo-Pro iVG nozzles and the manifold mounted Black Box cylinders have been expanded to bring their performance to plastic part applications of every size and for every industry. The products are built without o-rings entirely so that the products can withstand being worn out by force or heat, even at temperatures of 850°F. MHS says that because the pistons have no soft seals or lubrication, they require virtually no maintenance over the life of a mold.
