Mold-Masters is proud to announce the launch of our new Fusion Series G3 hot runner system. Fusion systems are shipped completely pre-assembled, pre-wired, plumbed and tested for fast, one-step installation. Mold-Masters FusionG3 system incorporates several major enhancements (over the previous FusionG2 system) that helps optimize mold design and simplify/speed up installation. These enhancements include:
1. Reduced nozzle bore cut-outs
2. New nozzle heater sleeves (optional)
3. More compact actuators (PN and HY)
4. Headless valve pins
5. Room temperature installation
Fusion Series G3 nozzles feature more compact nozzle bore cut-outs to help minimize tooling requirements and are available in customizable lengths up to 1,000mm. Fusion nozzles incorporate field replaceable heater bands and gate seals to ensure molders can respond and fix issues quickly on-site to minimize downtime. Most gate seals are interchangeable between G2 and G3 so customers are able to convert to the new system in many cases without any special retooling. New heater sleeves protect the nozzle and wiring from damage during installation and do not impact cut-out dimensions.
The new compact actuators minimize stack heights with cut-outs that are the same or smaller than G2. Anti-rotation and valve pin disconnect are now standard features. Compact actuators are available as either hydraulic or pneumatic. The position of air/hydraulic lines and cooling lines can be rotated to be set perpendicular or oriented different to one another to allow easier access when space is limited. FG3 actuators are also designed to accept Mold-Masters new Headless Valve Pins. By eliminating the larger head of traditional valve pins users can now remove the actuator or valve pin independently from one another which simplifies and speeds up maintenance. The headless valve pin can be re-worked in the field (steel safe).
FusionG3 also has the advantage that it is engineered to be installed and uninstalled at room temperature. It can be pulled directly from the shipping box and placed into the mold. This helps to significantly reduce installation time, eliminate extra equipment such as a temperature controller and improve safety conditions during installation, assembly and removal.
Mold-Masters Fusion Series G3 hot runner systems are covered with an available industry-leading 5-year warranty.
