PRONTO HOT RUNNERS SHIP IN TWO WEEKS
22 October 2006 - Husky Injection Molding Systems

Husky Hot Runners has introduced two-week shipments for its PRONTO line of hot runners. It is the only quick delivery program of its kind to offer fully configurable, complete hot halves with plates and manifold systems in two weeks at a reduced cost.

Every PRONTO hot runner is optimized for its application and melt channels are sized for the specific part it is molding. Manufactured at the company's North American hot runner facility in Milton, Vt., the new PRONTO delivery times are available to customers in North America and Asia.

"Faster deliveries are key in helping our customers meet increasingly tighter project deadlines," Keith Carlton, Husky's Vice President of Hot Runners, said. "Thanks to a number of recent lean initiatives at our Milton facility, we've been able to streamline our manufacturing process. Our customers now have access to the fastest delivery times in the world."

PRONTO offers mold designers flexibility in terms of nozzle selection, length and gating option within a defined nozzle pitch range. PRONTO offers more than 120 plate sizes that match the majority of industry standard mold bases, and is available in 1, 2, 4 and 8 drop manifold configurations. Various nozzles sizes, Ultra 500, Ultra 750 and Ultra 1000, and a wide variety of thermal and valve gating options are available.

Customers can specify their PRONTO using the Hot Runner Design Center in Husky's online catalog. An order can then be placed by calling their regional Husky office or the Husky Hot Runners facility in Milton at 1-800-516-9590. Once an order is placed, customer drawings are available in three days.

"We've maintained the performance and quality of our successful PRONTO program, with the added benefit of two-week shipments," Carlton added. "Melt channels and cooling circuits are optimized for each application, and Husky's patented UltraSeal technology offers a three-year leakproof guarantee. PRONTO customers also have access to the top service and spare parts support in the industry."
