Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides technical specifications and application details for the Mould Connect system, designed for use with multi-zone hot runner systems and mould systems. It highlights the system's ability to simplify wiring, enhance reliability, and reduce downtime.
Specifications:
  • Compact wiring terminal for multi-zone hot runner systems.
  • Available in configurations of 24 or 48 thermocouples per box.
  • Single bus cable connection to the controller.
  • Expandable with additional boxes on both sides.
  • Compatible with cavity pressure sensors and step motors.
  • Designed for use with all controllers, specifically the R7000 series.
Design:
  • Rugged, heat-resistant, and waterproof metal casing.
  • Mounted on a metal bracket with shock absorbers, typically on top of the hot runner or mould system.
  • Removable casing plates on both front sides for easy linking with other boxes.
  • Cable inlets on both sides with split units for smaller cables.
Functionality:
  • Thermocouples: 24 or 48 sensors per box, connected to a signal processing unit.
  • Cavity pressure measurement: 18 pressure sensors per box, using standard piezoelectric sensors.
  • Valve gate control: 14 step motors per box, with or without encoder.
Applications:
  • Designed for multi-channel wiring terminals, reducing wiring effort and simplifying operations.
  • Signals from connected sensors are digitized and transmitted via a single cable to the controller.
  • Data processing is simplified, reducing downtime for mould changers.
Environmental Conditions:
  • Leak tightness: IP63 if cable entrances are mounted correctly.
  • Operating temperature: Maximum 55°C, provided by the standard mounting bracket.
Additional Information:
  • Mains voltage: 24V DC for signal processing, 48V DC for step motors.
  • Thermocouple input: FeCuNi type, 0-600°C, other types on request.
  • Mould connection bus: CAN Open and EtherCAT® protocols.
  • Dimensions: 250 x 135 x 135 mm (WxDxH).
  • Weight: Depending on the version, e.g., Mould Connect with 48 channels weighs approximately 234 kg.

NOLDEN Mould Connect-1

• Compact wiring terminal for multizone hotrunner systems • Only 1 bus cable to the controller • Can be extended on both sides with other boxes • Mould cavity pressure sensors and step motors can also be connected • Use with all controllers NOLDEN NR7000. injection moulding press ARBURG under developmen Application : Multichannel wiring terminal especially designed for use with multizone hotrunners and mould systems. Reduces dramatically the wiring effort, simplifies operation and enhances the reliability. The signals of all connected sensors are digitalized directly on the mould and are then transmitted via just 1 cable directly to the controller or injection press. Finally, data processing is simplified and downtime for mould changeovers is shortened. Just connect the plug to the controller, the mould is then automatically recognized and all relevant mould data are loaded. Design : Rugged, heat resistant and waterproof metal casing. Mounted on a metal bracket with heatproof shock absorbers, usually on top of the hotrunner or mould system. Both front sides with removable closing plates, so, other MOULD CONNECT boxes can be joined. Cable inlets on both sides with “Pflitsch” system, split joints for smaller cables such as thermocouples, so individual cables can easily be exchanged later on in case of a defect element without dismantling the whole box. Central component mounting rack in the middle of the box, easy access from the top after removal of the upper cover plate. Function : Thermocouples 24 or 48 thermocouples per box. 24 sensors are connected to 1 signal processing unit with quick release terminals, 1 or 2 units per box. Signals are then amplified, digitalized and transmitted via one bus cable to the controller. Mould cavity pressure measurement 1-8 pressure sensors per box, standard piezoelectrical sensores can be used. Per sensor 1 pressure transducer, signals are then transmitted via a digital bus coupler to the central mould connecting cable. Valve gate control 1-4 step motors per box, as well with and without encoder. Signals and energies for electronics and step motors are being transmitted via the central mould connecting NOLDEN REGELSYSTEME GMBH Tel.: 0049-2225-70951-00 E-Mail: [email protected] Werner-von-Siemens-Strasse 18 Fax: 0049-2225-70951-99 Internet: www.nolden-regler.de All rights reserved / Revision : 09/2018

NOLDEN Mould Connect-2

NCDLDENMould wiring box MOULD CONNECT cable. Servo drives under development, depending on the size of the drive, those must be connected directly to the controller at present. Depending on the application, also other sensors or smaller actuators, e.g. for core pullers or pneumatical valve gates, can be integrated into the box. Mould data The mould designator is coded by the controller and written into the memory of the box, from where it can be read out at any time. Upon connection of the mould cable plug, this is done automatically, the controller then reads all relevant mould data and suggest...
