One-piece manifold to produce multi-color or multi-material parts
Multi-Material Systems
Multi-material Hot Runner systems are comprised of dynamically balanced manifolds that allow different materials to flow through them to produce the final product. The individual parts are often components of a larger technical part that is assembled post-molding. With custom designed flow channels that provide optimum flow conditions throughout the manifold, the multi-material Hot Runner systems deliver control of the gates and injection process.
Typically used in the automotive industry to eliminate complex assembly procedures. Many industries have adopted this system for components molded with more than one color or material type.
