Hot Runner Bushings

The Precision LV Hot Runner system is an exclusive large shot-size system with the ability to process engineering and glass-filled resins. Acceptable for crystalline and amorphous materials, this system utilizes gate diameter, gate area cooling and temperature control at the tip to optimize the part quality.The gate can be sunk into a round depression (referred to as a “recessed gate”) so that thevestige does not protrude above the part surface. The Precision LV is available with one head style and four gating options to suit a broad range of applications.

Gating Options for the Precision LV PLUS

Spreader Needle Collar Gate Tips – Spreader Needle Gate Insert Tips – Tips can process all types of resins, from commodity to engineering grades, while maintaining optimal performance with minimal vestige. Ideal for retrofitting into existing molds that may have larger gates. Available in standard and wear resistant alloys, these tips are capable of processing up to 4000 grams of low viscosity resin (see engineering charts on pages 5, 9, and 13). The Gate Insert tips can process all types of commodity and engineering grade resins whilemaintaining optimal performance, with a ring shaped minimal vestige on the part. Ideal forretrofitting into existing molds that may have larger gates, the tips are available in standard and wear resistant alloys. These tips are capable of processing up to 1900 grams of low viscosity resin (see engineering charts on pages 5, 9, and 13). The tips are also available in three different tip flats to suit specific application requirements. It is recommended to gate directly over the part. The Collar Gate tips replace the standard Pinpoint style in large volume applications. The improved design leaves no dead spots. These tips are capable of processing up to 1900 grams of low viscosity resin (see engineering charts on pages 5, 9, and 13). The Collar Gate tips are available in standard or wear resistant alloys, and three different tip flats to suit specific application requirements. Extra Stock Sprue Tips – Identical to the Sprue tip, except with extra stock steel at the tip that can be machined to meet customer specific requirements. Ideal for difficult access areas in the part, or for secondary runner applications. Available in standard and wear resistant alloys, these tips are capable of processing up to 4000 grams of low viscosity resin (see engineering charts on pages 5, 9, and 13).
