Hot runner systems involve hot halves/manifolds, nozzles, gates and temperature controllers whose design and maintenance are critical for optimal cycle time, final part quality, long mold life and minimal maintenance. During the workshop, Steve Johnson, MoldTrax’s president at the time, spelled it out.

An early workshop showing a line of belt-driven machine tools and workers for the watchmaking industry. Around 1800, Moutier had the Jura Mountains’ smallest area of productive farm- and pastureland, and the growing Swiss watchmaking industry soon was providing farmers with a source of income beyond the soil itself.

Further efficiency savings were achievable by reducing tube lengths and diameters, which decreases dead volumes and cycle times. training courses for change managers and practical workshops for employees. The objective is to benefit from bionics as a source of inspiration and to realise these in industrial automation.

Eagle’s acceleration reduces cycle times on every part and allows the full power of the laser to be used on thinner material. Whether you’re a small-scale workshop or a large manufacturing facility, we’ve got a machine to fit your needs. Slag can be collected with raisable drawers or by Tecoi’s Vibratec® system.

Developed as part of the Toyota Production System, value stream mapping is the creation of a diagram that shows all the actions required for raw materials to be sourced, processed, assembled and finally shipped to customers. What is value stream mapping? Process boxes: Each major process step or workstation is depicted as a process box.
