What Is Runner System Of Injection Molds

When molten plastic material leaves the barrel through the nozzle, it is guided toward the mold cavity, its final destination. Its flow path is called runner system, such as the sprue, runners. gates. The runner is in a simple direct route or goes through a series of turns that the flow molter material twists, and restrictions as it approaches the mold cavity. The molten plastic material flows into this cavity, takes the configuration of this chamber in the shape and size, and is cooled from a molten material to a solid workpiece of plastic material. There are many things along this pathway that can affect the ultimately workpiece performance. The runner system will be reviewed as to what they do and how they affect the molding process


There are many aspects to forming the molten material into its final solid workpiece that need to be considered to fabricate a final end use workpiece. The clamp of the molding machine, process of mold cooling, venting and shrinkage effects will be discussed. The clamp acts as the force to resist the pressures needed to inject the part through and form the workpiece. The mold cooli involves how to use a cooling medium properly to transfer this molten polymer into a solid polymer mass.The cooling strength of molding will affect the characteristics of workpiece such as crystallization, orientation of polymer or density. Venting unit affects the feature of workpiece of injection molded and the injection process. The mold shrinkage also changes the final workpiece.


Heya focuses on manufacturing all kinds of plastic moulds, like household molds, kitchenware molds, home appliance moulds, industry and agriculture molds, crate mould, chair moulds, injection pallet molds and so on, stool molds, table moulds and so on.
