  HRTC Improved Production Quality, Decreased Completion Time A hot runner system is a combination of heated components that are injected into the cavities of mold through plastic injected molds. A hot runner system can efficiently deliver liquid plastic to several mold cavities to create a plastic product. The heated plastic moves from the molding machine nozzle through internal channels called runners, and can be transferred directly into multiple cavities at the same time. The hot runner systems are increasing in popularity, as it never lets the plastic to solidify in the runners. This reduces the cycle time supporting faster processing. Another advantage of this system is a decrease in plastic waste, as the material does not harden until the mold is loaded. The lack of a sprue system considerably cuts down on the quantity of trimming needed to smooth the final product. Hot runners work through an added manifold, which is bolted to the mold assembly. These features are contribut...
