HOT RUNNER TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM
Temperature control is critically important to the overall injection molding process, especially when using hot runner systems.It affects all molding variables — flow, pressure, time and of course temperature. Unlike modular controls where zones are looked at individually, Adroit’s “Integrated” Hot Runner Temperature Controls manage all zones as a complete system. Customers benefit with improved reliability, energy savings and ease of use Adroit offers integrated control with energy management, sensor protection and a continuous tuning control algorithm. We surround these innovative technologies with an easy-to-use control interface, a modular cabinet design and all of the advanced features you would expect from a high-end controller, including recipe storage, automatic startup, zone slaving, diagnostics, I/O Communications and much more. Benefits include
Process Consistency
- Precise and repeatable temperature control with constant tuning PID Technology
- More forgiving of material and environmental variations
Reduced Downtime
- Predict heater failure
- Detect leakage
- Protect thermocouples and control modules
Tooling Protection
- Automatically “bake out” moisture, sequentially “even-soak” by group and “soft-soak”to prevent cold shooting Energy Efficiency
- All zones are managed as a system .This reduces peak demand electrical consumption.
- Max Power limits power consumption to meet availability.
Ease of Use
- Auto diagnostics provide real-time t/c, heater, temp, amp and power condition by zone
- Quick access to modular components
Customization
- Add mobile racks, transformers, remote display kit, special cable systems, etc.
