With a diameter ranging from Ø3.0 to Ø3.5 mm, the new Eyegate HRS end ring from Oerlikon HRS Flow ensures a minimal footprint, enabling precise injection point positioning even in complex geometries and hard-to-reach gate locations. A specially designed pin guide system guarantees permanent pin-gate alignment, significantly extending the end ring’s lifespan. Suitable for applications up to 20 g, Eyegate HRS is available for both Sp and Tp nozzle series.

Mould makers can now benefit from a more efficient manufacturing process, as the gate is already integrated into the end ring. This unique geometry simplifies gate area machining, reducing the time required for mouldmaking.

Another key advantage of Eyegate HRS is its ease of maintenance. When the gate becomes worn, the end ring can be replaced without re-machining the cavity insert, significantly reducing maintenance and production downtime costs. This translates to enhanced productivity and operational efficiency.

Designed for industries such as beauty and personal care, beverages, home products and medical applications, the Eyegate HRS is compatible with a wide range of materials, including: PC, PMMA, PP, PE, ABS, MABS, ASA, SMMA, SAN, thermoplastic elastomers and most of sustainable resins.

The streamlined inner profile of the tip enhances colour change performance by enabling continuous material flow without stagnation points. This ensures more efficient production processes, particularly in applications where frequent color changes are required.
