NPE- Chicago IL, USA- INCOE^® has developed a series of hot runner systems designed for the processing of commodity grade resins used in hi-cavitation molding. QUICK-FLO™ (QF) systems are now available in addition to INCOE^®’s successful line of DIRECT-FLO™ (DF) Gold hot runners which are ideal for technical part molding with up to 1000g shot weights per nozzle.
QF systems are used specifically for Caps/Closures, Medical Disposables, Pharmaceutical, and Packaging applications which demand maximum output, repeatable part quality and superior cosmetics. Nozzles are available
in three popular sizes with flow channel diameters of 3mm, 5mm and 8mm, and with shot ranges of 3g-375g. Gating options include Thermal Tip and Valve Gate with tips manufactured using highly conductive materials for optimal thermal response.
John Blundy, V.P. Business Development for INCOE^® stated, “QUICK-FLO™ system designs incorporate our proven and reliable hot runner technology along with added features necessary for the intended purpose and markets served. Newly developed nozzles use our proven twin heater technology for failsafe operation. The heater is profiled into the
QF nozzle body with a compact design suited for close pitch hi-cavitation molds, and the higher pressures commonly realized.”
For added processing value, QF systems that use Opti-Flo^® manifolds with the Beaumont Technologies Inc. patented* MelfFlipper^® technology, can provide improved cycle times and processing capability. QF systems are packaged in standard cavity layouts common to the hi-cavitation markets, and they are to be sold as complete injection halves. INCOE^®’s M Series of temperature controls are also available for added productivity and performance.
