Mold Hotrunner Solutions Inc. introduces the new Rheo-Pro iVG, said to be the first internal valve gate on the market.
The compact design of Rheo-Pro iVG nozzles makes it possible to build “short stacks” or stack molds with a tip-to-tip length of only 285mm and a pitch or gate-to-gate distance of 63.5mm.
The new iVG back-to-back valve gate nozzle increases mold uptime and improves conventional manifold systems. Also, the valve-to-valve melt transfer through the mold-parting surface eliminates the traditional sprue bar.
The Rheo-Pro iVG is completely front-serviceable from the mold parting line. Every component, including nozzles, valve actuators and valve pins, can be accessed quickly by stripping the cavity plate onto the core side while the entire mold remains inside the machine.
