Husky Hot Runners has introduced its redesigned UltraFlow mixing tip, which delivers the industry's fastest color changes and is ideal for applications that require frequent color changes, such as closures. Husky offers the only system that truly mixes the melt just before it enters the cavity. The patented technology has been dramatically improved to allow a wider range of applications to be processed. UltraFlow advantages
UltraFlow tips effectively deliver the most thermally homogenous melt to the cavity. Benefits include: Color change — significant time, resin and cost savings for applications that require frequent color changes.
Molecular/filler orientation — more uniform stress concentrations in parts when compared to traditional tips.
Dimensional stability — molded parts are less susceptible to warpage, as the uniform molecular structure enables parts to shrink evenly.
Part aesthetics — eliminates visible flow lines in parts and ensures even colorant dispersal because of the mixing action of UltraFlow.
The standard UltraFlow design can handle up to 26,000 psi and is available with a high-pressure option that can handle up to 35,000 psi. "We believe Husky has the best hot runner system for closures on the market and UltraFlow is a technology that helps achieve the fastest color changes for closures producers," Martin Baumann, Business Development and Marketing Manager for Husky Hot Runners, said.
