    Dr. Heinz-Jürgen Prokop, Chairman of the VDW, on the occasion of the online annual press conference on February 22, 2021: "China, the world's largest market with machine tool consumption of over 18 billion euros, will lose ground in 2020 for the third time in a row, but at a comparatively moderate rate of only 7 percent. However, with a share of just over one-third, the Middle Kingdom remains the top market and is three times larger than the USA in second place, which lost 23 percent."

    Compared to conventional hot runners, melt in the Ultrashot Injection System experiences fewer high-pressure injection cycles, thus preserving the original resin properties.

    Hot Runners

    New injection system to increase overall part design freedom

    The nozzle design developed by an Austrian-based mold builder abandons the usual round opening for a wide slit to allow for up to 25% faster cycle times, lower shear and injection pressure.

    Hot Runners

    Combining Injection Moulding and Extrusion Technology

    The Flat Die Unit (FDU) passes melt through a long slit instead of a circular hole like a conventional nozzle. The result is said to be faster injection of more melt through a thinner gate opening, with lower shear and injection pressure, lower melt temperature and up to 25% faster cycle time in several projects.
