Mastip's thermally optimised hot runners and components enable the cus - tomers worldwide to deliver to their clients the highest quality plastic components and products to consumers for the lowest cost in seg - ments ranging from medi - cal, electrical and appliances through to electronics and automotive. Founded in 1991, the first manufacturing facility supported local customers in Auckland, New Zealand before growing into a mul - tinational company that today delivers and sup - ports hot runner solu - tions into over 40 coun - tries globally. Today Mastip sup - plies a wide range of hot runner solutions from simple manifolds to complex systems such as high cavitation, multi-material and stack moulds. Mastip’s solutions are tailored to support your specific market require - ments, while the technical expertise and experience gained over the last 30 years with engineering polymers, has enabled team specialists to design and manufacture reliable and incredibly du - rable systems for challenging applications. With recent growth in new subsidiaries, new distributors and additional manufactur - ing facilities, Mastip contin - ues to develop its service and support network and all the team looks towards the future with further expan - sions planned. Mastip www.mastip.com Ante-chamber bushes are used in hot runner nozzles for providing the required nozzle shape in the cavity plate. They help to quickly restore the gate point quality in applications with abrasive plastics. The ante-chamber bush ensures opti - mum cooling in the gate point. Meusburger cus - tomers can cust - omise the cooled a n t e - c h a mb e r bush EC according to their require - ments and have it delivered in no time at all. If the appropriate instal - lation space is available in the mould, Meusburger’s ante- chamber bush can provide both temperature regulation close to the gate point and along the entire circumfer - ence as well as exact instal - lation dimensions for the smartFILL hot runner nozzle series. This allows for maxi - mum flexibility regarding the gate diameter, the length of the ante-chamber bushes as well as the connection to the temperature control chan - nels in the mould. Uniform gate temperatures and easy cleaning ensure lasting high quality for both the gate and the component for the injec - tion moulded part. Advantages of the ante-chamber bush The cooled ante-chamber bush features cooling close to the gate point along the entire circumference and optimal control of the gate temperature. Further advan - tages are the wear-protect - ed and corrosion-resistant design and fast integration into the mould concept along with the customisable gate diameters. In addition, the lengths can be matched exactly to the mould design. Installation and removal are just as easy as cleaning the of ante-chamber bush.
