Moulds:

Balanced gate system:
Gate point: Diameter 0,4 to 0,6 mm (0,016-0,024 in.), max. 1,0 mm (0,039 in.)
Gate types: Pin gate, submarine gate, film gate
Venting: 0,01 – 0,02 mm (0,0004-0,001 in.) vent channels
Mould surface: eroded
Ejectors: large-area ejectors


Please always note
:

• Soft materials may be compressed, resulting in overfilling.
• The excellent flow characteristics of  THERMOLAST KŪ compounds may cause obstruction of vents and therefore air entrapment.
