Mold-Masters Hot Runners and Control
Systems
Mold-Masters Summit-Series Hot Runner, A Premium Hot Runner
for Premium and Clean Room Applications
The Summit-Series is Mold-Masters’ premium hot runner line. The
Summit-Series hot runner nozzle has four times less thermal
variation from set point, compared to the typical thermal variation
seen in a nozzle with a heater band. The Summit-Series hot runner
is built completely from stainless steel, which makes it ideal for
molding shear and temperature-sensitive resins like PC, POM and
PBT. The nozzle profile positively affects balance and is
especially effective for medical market molding where precision is
paramount and has seen significant adoption in premium packaging
and complex automotive applications. The Summit-Series can also be
ordered with new servo-controlled valve-gate actuators, which allow
for individual speed, time and position control of each valve pin
in the mold. The Summit-Series is clean room-ready and is the
perfect hot runner solution for any molder looking to reduce risk
and optimize molding process parameters with minimized variance and
strong, repeatable results.
Mold-Masters Fusion G2 Series Hot Runner Rev’s up Automotive
Molding Operations
Milacron’s Mold-Masters product brand has developed new enhanced
features in the Fusion G2 Series for automotive and large-part
molding. An extended nozzle length range provides more flexibility
while the compound nozzle can be used to avoid interferences with
cavity cooling lines, and position nozzles in very tight pockets.
Fusion G2 is now available with valve pin open speed control and
position monitoring that enables improved surface finishes at the
gate of the part. Options for extra-extended gate seals are now
also available on the entire Fusion G2 product line. Brand new
additions to the Fusion G2 product line that will be on display
will include high performance water-cooled gate inserts plus some
additional new gating methods designed specifically for certain
resins.
NEW Mold-Masters DURA+ Automotive Lens and Lighting Hot
Runner – The Clear Choice
Mold-Masters NEW DURA+ hot runner for lighting applications
utilizes features in the Master-Series and Dura product range. The
developments focus on part quality and flexibility for customers.
The new smarter angled manifold designs make installations easier
and reduce the cost on mold machining. New gating styles and new
valve pins with superior flow profile allow for perfect gate
quality and the new heater path at main manifolds offer less zones
to control without jeopardizing the thermal balancing. The new
valve pin position sensors fine tune the injection process and dual
thermocouples on nozzles to avoid production fails and the proven
Fusion G2 actuators that bring repeatability on gate closing,
cooling water jackets.
Mold-Masters E-Multi Secondary Injection Unit – Precise,
Versatile Thermoplastic Multi-Shot Molding Solution
Mold-Masters all-electric E-Multi converts existing injection
molding machine equipment to enable multi-shot and multi-material
molding, expanding operations potential. The proven E-Multi
platform is fully compatible with any IMM and the ideal solution
for precision molding applications in any industry. The E-Multi has
over 2,000 standard possible configurations available ensuring the
E-Multi is perfectly sized to applications exact requirements.
NEW – E-Multi is now available with LSR capabilities.
Mold-Masters TempMaster Control Solutions: Accurate,
Responsive and Intuitive
The Mold-Masters TempMaster control system lineup features the
industry’s leading Adaptive Process System (APS) software and
algorithms. This APS is at the core of each and every TempMaster
controller. Today’s demanding molding applications require a hot
runner controller that you can rely on for precision control, ease
of use and day-to-day reliability. Equipment size is also an
important issue when trying to maximize shop floor utilization.
With this in mind, Mold-Masters has designed the M-Series range of
controllers including the fully integrated iM2, the powerhouse M2,
and the economical MT series. TempMaster controllers are available
in 2 to 560 zone configurations. All controllers are user-friendly,
plug-and-play units allowing for quick start-ups.

Milacron’s Mold-Masters hot runner product brand will showcase
their leading closure hot runner, SPRINT which has launched NEW
Color Change Tips. The new tips are engineered to far exceed the
performance of similar competitive systems. The new SPRINT color
change tip improves color change by up to 47% (vs. a standard gate
tip). These new gating tips are available immediately as a standard
package for all SPRINT systems and are compatible with the current
tip as replacements. Mold-Masters SPRINT closure hot runners are
engineered for speed. SPRINT is available in hot and valve gate
solutions engineered for lightning-fast cycles, color changes,

industry worldwide. The DME product brand proudly celebrates its
75th Anniversary. DME is a market-leading mold technologies
provider and continues to provide the industry’s broadest range of
products and solutions for mold designers, mold makers and
processors.
DME TruCoolTM – A Revolutionary Conformal
Cooling Solution
TruCool is the new DME line of products designed to help mold
makers and molders with their mold cooling. DME’s Conformal Cooling
solutions utilize a cutting edge, direct metal laser melting 3D
printing process to produce highly complex cavities, cores, and
components with conformal cooling channels. The process achieves
shapes, paths, and channel geometries impossible to obtain with
conventional tooling. DME’s TruCool Conformal Cooling solution
places cooling channels at the optimal distance from the mold
surface, consistently following the geometric shape of any mold
insert for any customer part, allowing the mold to maintain a
targeted, consistent temperature that allows for complete thermal
control, allowing for the total injection molding cycle time to be
reduced by up to 60%. This technology also allows for conformal
venting solutions for those hard to reach areas of trapped gases,
when requested by the molder.
TIRAD High Precision Large Mold Bases
TIRAD product lines feature Large Mold Bases with plate lengths
up to 1.5 X 2.3 m, increasing the capacity to handle larger, more
diverse product molds. The mold bases are manufactured on the
fastest, most powerful machines within their class, and use
machining centers that process data faster and more accurately. The
premier equipment used to make large mold bases significantly
reduces manual polishing and additional rework due to increased
consistency in high quality finishes. TIRAD offers high precision
climate room production capabilities of plates for plastics
injection molds, especially for multi-cavity systems in accuracy
+/- 0.005 mm / 1000 mm. TIRAD’s high precision mold bases are
principally utilized for medical, pharmaceutical, technical, food,
beverage and packaging solutions.
