Altanium Temperature Controllers Designed to provide the industry’s most consistent part quality Benefits • 2 to 254 zones of control • Simple and intuitive operation • Interchangeable cards and interfaces across the entire product line • Active Reasoning Technology (ART) • Automated mold diagnostics • Large, intuitive, full color touchscreen • Multi-mold set-up storage • USB support for importing and exporting data • Password enabled security • Multi-language support Accurate temperature control is essential in maintaining and optimizing the injection molding process and has a direct impact on processing window, part quality, gate vestige and part properties. The temperature controller plays a crucial role in ensuring part-to-part and shot-to-shot consistency. Having a high level of control not only helps produce better quality parts, but also helps drive down part costs, improve productivity and streamline operations. Recognized throughout the industry for their accuracy and ease of use, Husky’s family of Altanium™ temperature controllers provide two to 254 zones of control for maximum flexibility and configurability. Precise temperature control is achieved through the use of Active Reasoning Technology (ART). Large full color touchscreens with intuitive interfaces enable uncomplicated configuration and monitoring. Easy to use, sophisticated diagnostic routines allow tooling issues to be identified and corrected with minimal downtime.

Husky's Altanium product line achieves optimal control through the application of Active Reasoning Technology (ART), a combination of software and hardware architecture that is unique in the industry. Intelligent temperature control Requiring no intervention by the user, ART is able to generate a para meter set to precisely fit each zone's unique thermal response characteristics. Once the optimal control algorithm has been calculated, ART utilizes a modulation method that delivers a rapid, uniform flow of power to the heaters, minimizing deviations in temperature. Using a technique known as...

Our new Altanium Delta3 minimizes the layers of navigation required by other controllers on the market by ensuring any screen is not more than one touch of a button away. Altanium Temperature Controllers 3

Key Features Automated mold diagnostics As a standard, Altanium includes highly accurate mold diagnostics and troubleshooting features that perform automated tests on individual or multiple zones. Once the analysis is complete, the results can be viewed in a comprehensive format that precisely locates faults so they can be quickly repaired. Altanium is also capable of rewiring crossed wired zones and can compare parameters against a baseline to determine if preventative maintenance should be performed. Test for: • Voltage delivery to each heater (X Card only) • Thermal response and correct...

Simplicity of architecture • Interchangeable card design—Reduces maintenance costs • Single board integrity—Reduces mechanical connections, increasing reliability • Board level diagnostics—Reduces downtime due to excessive troubleshooting • Integrated power supply, microprocessor, thermocouple and communications on a single card—Lowers cost of ownership due to less spares to stock • Distributed control design—Ensures the shortest response time, resulting in the most accurate and repeatable tempera- Phase Angle or Zero Cross Altanium provides the ability to switch between Phase Angle and...
