Orycon Hot Runner Systems has recently added user friendly functionality to its hydraulic valve gate sequencer. The Orycon T-700-BB sequencer, with a 25" width x 60" tall footprint and 27" diameter can control 8, 16 or 24 hydraulic zones and it comes complete with oil reservoir, oil cooler, accumulator and a visual display of the timeline or screw position.

The settings can be entered via virtual keypad with accuracy of 1/10 of a second or 1/10 of 1% of the screw travel, Orycon contends. The unit is now available with direct manual controls for individual zones, making it ideal for bench testing molds as well as easing setups at the press. Pressure is adjustable up to 2,000 psi.
