Features

1. Efficient cooling of the sprue bush reduces cycle time!

In molding with multiple gates or multiple cavities, the cooling of the sprue is slower than that of the product, which can become a bottleneck in the overall cycle time. 3D Sprue Bush focuses on this issue and improves the cooling performance of the sprue bush itself, making it possible to shorten the molding cycle. By cooling the sprue area reliably and evenly, high-cycle molding is achieved. This improves the operating efficiency of the molding machine and is expected to improve productivity.

Small time savings per cycle will add up to more time for overall production. This will also make it easier to secure time for mold maintenance.

2. Flexible design that can accommodate both 2-plate and 3-plate molds

3D water pipe sprue bushes are designed to be compatible with both 2-plate and 3-plate dies, and can be used widely regardless of the structure of the die. They can be installed in new designs as well as existing dies with relatively simple modifications, as installation can be completed simply by machining a groove for the pipe in the fixed side mounting plate. Even if there is an interfering object, the groove path can be freely designed, allowing for flexible response to on-site conditions.

Another attractive feature is that the barrier to implementation is low, and the system can improve cooling performance without interfering with the use of current molds.

3. Improved durability makes the sprue bushing last longer!

The 3D sprue bushing uses a new high-hardness material. This improves wear resistance during repeated use during molding, and enables stable performance to be maintained for a longer period of time. Compared to conventional products, it is expected that the frequency of replacement due to wear and damage will be reduced, which will also reduce the burden of mold maintenance and reduce running costs. This specification can be used with confidence in workplaces that aim to achieve both reliability and economy.

Applications

We have received many case studies from customers who have introduced this product, reporting that the improved cooling efficiency of the sprue section has reduced cycle times. Here are some examples.

Furthermore, by performing a cooling analysis before implementation, it is possible to check the cooling effect of the sprue bush in advance. This allows you to consider the solution after understanding the expected effect, allowing you to adopt it with greater peace of mind.

Although these are only reference values, it has been confirmed that Reduction in cycle time has contributed to increased productivity at actual molding sites. Such time reduction has a positive effect in many ways, including reducing part costs, suppressing additional investment in molds, and even saving electricity usage. The freed up time can also be used for mold maintenance, leading to long and stable operation.
