ATT Alternating Temperature Technology

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses Alternating Temperature Technology (ATT) for variotherm liquid-operated temperature control in injection and injection compression molds. This technology aims to improve the quality and efficiency of molded parts by using near-surface cooling channels.
Key Specifications: ATT involves heating the cavity wall above the glass transition temperature before injection and cooling it post-injection until the part is ready for demolding. The system uses Lasercusing to create contour-aligned heating/cooling channels.
Benefits:
  • Cost Efficiency: ATT reduces cycle times and homogenizes cooling time across the mold.
  • Strength and Structure: It ensures homogenous glass-fiber orientation, reduces warpage, and improves dimensional stability.
  • Surface Quality: ATT enhances optical properties and surface finishes, avoiding flow marks and silver streaks.
  • Process Reliability: It reduces injection pressure and clamping force, prolonging holding pressure.
Technical Details: The system operates with two separate circuits containing thermal fluids at different temperatures. Water is recommended for temperatures up to 200°C, while oil is used for up to 300°C. Lasercusing allows for the precise arrangement of heating/cooling channels.
Partnership: The ATT system is a joint product by SINGLE Temperiertechnik and Sauer Product. SINGLE designs and supplies the temperature systems, while Sauer focuses on mold inserts.
Company Profiles:
  • SINGLE Temperiertechnik: Specializes in high-performance temperature control systems, serving various industries including plastics, chemical, and food production.
  • Sauer Product: Offers comprehensive services from product conception to finished parts, with expertise in automotive applications and mold engineering.

ATT Alternating Temperature Technology-2

Alternating Temperature Technology: Variotherm mold temperature control Alternating Temperature Technology (ATT) is a complete system for particularly efficient variotherm liquid-operated temperature control of injection and injection compression molds by means of a near-surface arrangement of heating/cooling channels. ATT combines a customized alternating temperature system with specially designed and manufactured cavity inserts and mold components. Variotherm mold temperature control involves heating the cavity wall prior to injection of the melt to a temperature that exceeds the glass transition...

ATT Alternating Temperature Technology-3

STWS Alternating Temperature System SINGLE STWS alternating temperature system operates with two separate circuits that contain thermal fluid with a different temperature. The required temperatures of each circuit can be adjusted to suit the process. Both SWTS circuits contain the same fluid. Water is recommended for temperatures of up to 200° C, while oil is suitable for very rare applications that operate with temperatures of up to 300° C. The system is equipped with an external valve station for switching the two circuits from bypass mode to mold temperature control mode. Signals for the switch-over...
