Oerlikon HRSflow offers a variety of hot runner technology, one of which MMT has covered a few times – a servo-driven valve gate system with controls that monitor the valve pin position and speed during the injection process (FLEXflow). But, instead of reviewing that technology, Robert and I talked about newer systems that address sustainability, specifically systems for part weights from 0.2 to 60 grams for the medical and packaging markets and nozzles for consumer products.
We also discuss other challenges the moldmaking and plastics industries are facing with recycled plastics and how Oerlikon HRSflow is solving those challenges.
