New Product to be Introduced at NPE 2006
Gammaflux – McCormick Place South, Booth No. 2932

Sterling, VA (January 16, 2006) . . . Gammaflux L.P., the world’s leading supplier of hot runner temperature control systems, has introduced mold identification capabilities to its high-end line of TTC hot runner temperature control systems. This new product feature will be displayed for the first time at NPE in Chicago, June 19-23, 2006.

With this new feature, up to 63 different injection molds can be connected to a single TTC hot runner controller, and the controller can automatically identify the operating parameters for each individual mold. All operating data for each mold is stored in the controller, and a menu shows operators exactly how each tool needs to be controlled.

This new feature is available on Gammaflux TTC controllers with a PC-based operator panel (touchscreen interface). Using an Ethernet connection, the TTC connects with a digital input mold reading module. The recipe can be identified with either a mold key or a cable that attaches to the mold. Mold ID software is loaded into the TTC to operate this new function. Existing TTC controllers in the field can be easily retrofitted to accept Mold ID.

The Gammaflux TTC family of hot runner temperature control systems provides state-of-the-art performance for molding applications up to 640 zones. Designed for worldwide operation, the TTC family features true global input power flexibility. Fast startup, multiple language conversion options, universally accepted icons, and security options all contribute to the systems’ ease of use.

Gammaflux Triangulated Control Technology® provides fast startup and tight, accurate temperature control, which leads to improved molding performance and better quality parts on even the most challenging applications.

Advanced, user-friendly Gammaflux software comes standard on the TTC controllers and includes Gammavision® (SPC data/graphing), Mold Doctor® (advanced troubleshooting), Mold Monitor (material protection, heater resistance monitoring that predicts heater failure, and heater wattage monitoring that predicts leaks) and Field Calibrator.
