Immersion Heatersfor the Plastics Industry

The temperature of mold surfaces,with which molten plastic comes into contact, changes as the room temperature changes. In many locations this temperature can vary as much as 30 degrees; summer to winter months experiencing even greater differences. Mold control units provide consistent mold temperatures, regardless of the season. Processors can increase set point as ambient temperatures change, resulting in improved part quality and cycle times. Watlow has an extensive offering of heaters for mold control systems.Watlow presents an easy-to-use,cross-reference for process heaters in the plastics industry.
