Machine Nozzles

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides an in-depth analysis of Synventive Nozzles, highlighting their innovative heat pipe technology. This technology ensures optimal processing temperatures and minimizes downtime by eliminating the need for multiple heaters, resulting in uniform heat transfer, improved melt quality, and reduced process variability.
Specifications: Synventive Nozzles are designed to fit various injection molding machines, available in multiple lengths and thread sizes. Constructed from 4140 alloy steel, with stainless steel options for corrosive materials like PVC, these nozzles can withstand a maximum pressure of 40,000 PSI and temperatures up to 343°C (650°F).
Heat Pipe Technology: The heat pipe acts as a superconductor for heat transfer, utilizing evaporation and condensation within a capillary wick for efficient heat distribution. This allows many nozzles to operate without heaters, reducing downtime caused by electrical failures.
Nozzle Styles: The document details various nozzle styles, including Type AP, BIG, M, and F, each offering unique features such as mixing elements for color dispersion or filters for contaminant-free processing. Specifications for each type include bore diameter, length, and material.
Installation and Maintenance: Proper installation is crucial to prevent seizing or galling. The document outlines cleaning procedures for threads and the use of anti-seize compounds. It emphasizes the importance of using heaters with isolation end caps for effective heat transfer.
Special Considerations: Guidelines for processing materials like nylon and PVC are provided, stressing the need for temperature control and appropriate nozzle tips. Safety warnings are included to prevent nozzle damage and warranty voiding.
Accessories: Available accessories include band heaters, thermocouples, and removable tips made from steel or Beryllium Copper, with part numbers for ordering spare parts.
Start-Up Procedures: Before operation, ensure the nozzle reaches operating temperature. Nozzles under 250 mm require 15-20 minutes, while those between 250 mm and 533 mm need 20-40 minutes. Avoid using oxy-acetylene equipment on Synventive Nozzles.
Troubleshooting: Common issues often involve the nozzle tip. Ensure proper sealing and heat transfer by slightly mismatching the radii of the tip and bushing. If freezing occurs, consider increasing the tip orifice diameter or changing the tip material.
Ordering Information: To order, select the appropriate nozzle and tip, specifying material, thread dimensions, and heater band voltage. If the application differs from the selection guide, complete the application worksheet and return it to Synventive.
Key Recommendations: Ensure the nozzle tip is away from the mold during warm-up, avoid measuring actual tip temperature, use the largest possible orifice in the nozzle tip, match the rear opening of the removable tip with the bore diameter, and avoid unnecessary sprue breaks.

Improve Melt Quality... Reduce Downtime! > Heat pipe technology is your assurance that every Synventive Nozzle will automatically operate at the optimum processing temperature;never too hot, never too cold. Synventive Heat Pipe technology transfers heat at uniform temperature from machine barrel to nozzle tip, eliminating hot spotsӔ which cause process variables.Many Synventive Nozzles are completely heaterless. Others require a single band heater which is placed in a safe location at the back of the nozzle (machine end). The absence of multiple heaters and associated electrical hardware eliminates...

Heaterless. Special Processing ConsiderationsNylon > Recommended for use with all general purpose plastics being processed at 343 C [650 аF] and below.Synventive Nozzle threads directly into machine barrel. Nozzle will operate at the same temperature as the last zone on the barrel. Type AP, M and F are available as heaterless nozzles. Similar to conventional nozzles, Synventive Nozzles require special attention when processing nylon.Due to nylons very narrow temperature processing range, tip drooling or freezing are common processing problems. Consistent reliable processing of nylon can be easily...

PVC Nozzle Installation > Because of the temperature uniformity inherent in all Synventive Nozzles, they are the ideal choice for processing PVC, which is an extremely time/temperature sensitive material. All Synventive Nozzles for PVC are made from stainless steel to resist corrosion, and one heater band and thermocouple are recommended. Synventive offers specific processing guidelines for running PVC through a hot runner system.For a copy of these guidelines or more information on processing PVC, contact Synventive. As with conventional injection machine nozzles, good installation procedures...

Nozzle Filters Removal and Cleaning Installation > Recommended for use whenever a high quality filtered melt is desired, e.g., whenever processing with a hot runner system. Also, the use of filters is highly recommended whenever regrind is added to virgin resin and when mold cavity gates are very small.Synventive Nozzle filters offer a simple, effective, and low cost way of preventing tramp metal and other contaminants from clogging gates or entering the mold. The channel and groove configurations of the filter insert have been optimized for maximum flow at minimum pressure loss.These filters...

Start-Up > 2. If the Synventive Nozzle is threaded into a hot barrel, there will be a waiting time, depending on the length of the nozzle, until the operating temperature is reached (see installation procedure, page MN8). Nozzles under 250 mm (10 inches) long will generally take 15-20 minutes to reach operating temperature, nozzles 250 mm [10 inches] to 533 mm [21 inches] will take 20-40 minutes to reach operating temperature. DO NOT USE OXY-ACETYLENE EQUIPMENT ON SYNVENTIVE NOZZLES! > Sufficient soak time must be given to allow the Synventive Nozzle to reach operating temperature prior to operation.1....
