Preform Moulds

Features and Benefits

Core lock type stack design

Modular cavity construction

Preform collar is placed inside the thread splits to minimize clamping force requirement and resulting stress on the mould and clamping unit


Modular cavity construction

Replaceable cavity lock ring; a wear part separated from cavity for inexpensive and easy replacement

No axial load on cavity allowing the use of lower steel section thickness and faster cooling


Precision machined and finished

Weight variation across cavities is minimal

Excellent concentricity between core and cavity for minimum wall thickness variation

Consistent dimensions across cavities

Flash-less parting lines

Good mould life due to perfect matching of components under load


Large gate diameter and generous venting

Permits short injection and hold times

Resin is exposed to less stress during injection


Gate thermally insulated from hot runner nozzle and aggressively cooled

Low crystallinity in the gate area of the preform


Cavity and core manufactured from highly conductive, tough and wear resistant steel

Fast and efficient cooling

Highly resistant to mechanical failure


Wet area maximised in gate, cavity, thread splits and core

Fast and efficient cooling


Cooling water channels in gate, cavity, thread splits and core, designed for turbulent flow at minimum flow rates

Ensures fast and efficient heat exchange between steel and water

Chilled water pump consumes less energy

Requires a smaller flow rate pump


Large channel diameter for chilled water transport in mould base

Low pressure drop in water distribution channels resulting in energy conservation

Less pressure demand on the pump


All stack components hardened to over 50 HRC

Highly wear resistant

Resistant to plastic deformation and changes in dimensions

Long service life


PVD coatings (optional)

Extremely wear resistant to protect surfaces from wear

Easier ejection with lower ejection forces


Mould base plates manufactured from pre-hardened corrosion resistance stainless steel

Highly rigid to withstand clamping forces without deformation

Provides adequate support to stack components

Extreme resistance to corrosion

Long service life


Ergonomic

Cores, core lock rings, thread splits, and cavity flanges can be changed with the mould in the machine, for quick and easy servicing

Quick coupling connectors for quick mould change

Only one chilled water inlet and outlet for each mould section, with distribution channels drilled into the mould base plates, for quick mould change and low probability of water leakages


Cavity Spacing as low as 40 mm x 100 mm for thread diameters of up to 25 mm and 45 mm x 100 for thread diameters up to 30 mm

Permits the use of higher number of cavities for any machine size for higher productivity


Standardization of components

Reduction in spares inventory for a group of moulds

Easy servicing


Support

Comprehensive training provided to customer’s technicians in mould and hot runner maintenance as well as PET processing

Professionally competent company technicians for mould commissioning, and training at the customer’s factory

Standard wear parts are kept in stock for immediate shipment


Thread splits manufactured from corrosion resistant steel

Customized to fit any appropriate hot runner

Customized to fit any injection moulding machine
