Smart Molding International 3-2021

14 newsfeed smart_molding international 3/2021 HASCO hot runner has ex - tended its hot runner prod - uct portfolio with additions to its range of Primezone H1281/… control units. With immediate effect, the new hot runner controller H1281 is also available with 40 and 48 control zones. HASCO has thus closed the previ - ous gap and has completed the range up to 96 control zones. Compact tabletop versions Both models are available in the newly developed com - pact tabletop housing with outside dimensions of only 456 x 556 x 409 mm. On the one hand, this saves space in the frequently tight working environment of the mould shop, and, on the other, it gives you the flexibility to place the control unit near the injection moulding ma - chine, on a trolley or small table. Intuitive operation with touch screen display similar to a smartphone The generously sized 10" touch screen display offers an outstanding overview of all functions and allows easy operation of the controller. Innovative operating functions support the user during input at all navigation levels. The intuitive and multi-lingual user interface is similar to modern smart - phones, whereby the most important settings can be acti - vated very quickly and easily without the need for any operating instruc - tions. The new units with 40 and 48 control zones can be ordered immediately The new devices are avail - able as standard in the cus - tomary HASCO and custom wiring specifications. The two additions to the range can be ordered from HASCO for delivery from July 2021. HASCO www.hasco.com The EWIKON L2X-Mikro high-performance hot run - ner system for small injec - tion moulding machines is now available as a compact 4-drop version with valve gate technology for shot weights around 0.01 gram per nozzle. The system uses synchro - nous plate technology to enable simultaneous actua - tion of all valve pins. Due to the very compact design of the drive technology, in which all components are incorporated in the smallest possible installation space, it can be easily integrated into all common mould sizes for small injection moulding machines. The high-performance hot runner system has the fol - lowing main features: - T i p i nser t s with powerful di - rect heating and separate temper- ature control for reliable process - ing of technical resins. -Problem-free processing of thermally sensitive ma - terials -Designed for useonBOY®-, WITTMANN BATTENFELD- or Babyplast® machines -Leakproof screw connec - tion between nozzles and manifold -L2X connecting technology for precise position - ing of the connection cables - Va l v e gate ver - sion with compact syn - chronous plate technology -Available in different ver - sions for open gating or as 4-drop hot half for valve gating Use in standard mould designs In order to realize multi- cavity systems with stan - dard moulds, several of the L2X-Mikro manifold mod - ules can be combined with a bridge manifold. In valve gate systems all valve pins are actuated by one com - mon synchronous plate.
