New hot runners improve tip heating.A new line of hot-runner nozzles is designed to improve heat transfer through the nozzle body and into the tip without heat losses to the mold. They come from Volastic Co. Ltd., a new supplier of hot runners, manifolds and temperature controllers based in Bangkok, Thailand. Its products are available in North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere. exclusively from PCS (1) (Personal Communications Services) Refers to wireless services that emerged after the U.S. government auctioned commercial licenses in 1994 and 1995. This radio spectrum in the 1. Co., Fraser, Mich. Volastic was founded by Bob Fill, the developer and original supplier of D-M-E's GateMate system. He later founded hot-runner supplier Mastip in New Zealand New Zealand (zē`lənd), island country (2005 est. pop. 4,035,000), 104,454 sq mi (270,534 sq km), in the S Pacific Ocean, over 1,000 mi (1,600 km) SE of Australia. The capital is Wellington; the largest city and leading port is Auckland. , which he sold in 2004. Fill says his new nozzle design features a carbide carbide, any one of a group of compounds that contain carbon and one other element that is either a metal, boron, or silicon. Generally, a carbide is prepared by heating a metal, metal oxide, or metal hydride with carbon or a carbon compound. tip encased en·case tr.v. en·cased, en·cas·ing, en·cas·es To enclose in or as if in a case. en·case  ment n. in a
thermally conductive metal. The metal forms an extension of the nozzle
shaft and draws heat from the heater through the shaft rather than
through the steel body. The nozzle in turn is heated by a heater with
separate thermocouple. Aimed principally at packaging and electronics
applications, the design is said to give accurate and lower molding
temperatures for sensitive materials. Tel: (586) 294-7780 *
