molding technology 36 smart_molding international 2/2021 H usky InjectionMolding Systems, Ltd., a leading industrial tech - nology provider to the plastics processing community, is proud to an - nounce the release of the UltraShotTM Injection System. This innovative, next generation melt delivery and control system eliminates the deficiencies of traditional injection molding processes and creates unique value and opportu - nity for producers by making it possible to mold the perfect part at scale, with unmatched quality. Higher Cavitation Scalability with Faster Speed-to-Market The UltraShotTM Injection System’s advanced injection control technol - ogy enables risk-free scalability with flawless part capability. Identical sys - tem behavior for each injection circuit provides process condition consistency with cavitation scaling. A predictable process from pilot to high cavitation – scalable to 128 cavities, enables pro - ducers to maximize cavitation without negative performance on balance or shot-to-shot variation. Brand own - ers can accelerate from prototype to high cavitation production qualifica - tion, thus greatly increasing speed-to- market. Part Design Flexibility and Freedom – Mold the Unmoldable The UltraShotTM Injection System enables brand owners to produce unconstrained, highly functional and validated parts, economically, where conventional injection molding pro - cesses cannot. This revolution - ary cavity filling control and process optimization overcomes traditional constraints of pres - sure, L/T and difficult-to-mold resins. This enables part light - weighting for resin and process time savings and provides resin selection flexibility. Ultimately, this means greater part design freedom, opening up endless possibilities for brand owners looking to take plastic part de - signs to the next level. Preserve Resin Properties Compared to conventional hot run - ners, melt in the UltraShotTM Injection System experiences fewer high-pres - sure injection cycles, thus preserving the original resin properties. This leads to lower mold-in stress and better me - chanical and optical properties in the molded part. With this technology, you get the best physical properties for your molded part. Process Control Powered by the Altanium® Mold Controller, the UltraShotTM Injection System provides highly advanced pro - cess monitoring and control for injec - tion molding. The Altanium process control provides repeatability and traceability for part dimension con - sistency, perfect balance and a more stable process. Providing digital analy - sis creates a measurable discipline around the molding process and gives customers full control and trend analy - sis of various processes resulting in im - proved, lower risk operations. Breakthrough Technology The melt delivery system is the “heart” of the injection molding pro - cess and is essential to mold cell per - formance. The UltraShotTM Injection Systemmasters part filling in a way that provides part design freedom, while re - ducing risk and improving part quality and speed of mold qualification. With “Husky Inside”, producers ensure that the center of their system performs op - timally, every shot. It offers unmatched OEE and increased productivity, at a reduced footprint, resulting in lowest total part production cost. It is the per - fect fit for medical, technical packaging and consumer electronic part produc - ers looking to scale up, implement more efficient process control, address com - petitive marketplaces, and reduce risk, scrap, waste and cost.
