Why Choose Pulse Hot Runner Controllers?

There has been a trend over the last decade to integrate hot runner temperature controls into injection molding machines. While this may seem like a good idea, molders are sacrificing a lot of value that comes with a specialized hot runner temperature control like our Fast Heat Pulse controller. Our temperature controller is also a valuable tool for other applications such as extrusion, compression molding and any application with simplicity, precise control and work-cell integration are important.

*How Active Thermocouple Protection Works

A positive temperature coefficient (PTC) device allows the amount of current generated during the normal operation of a thermocouple to flow through but shuts down when the current flowing through becomes too high. Unlike conventional fuses, the PTC resets itself when the current drops to a normal level.  The time it takes to trip the device (time-to-trip) depends on the current and falls rapidly as the current increases.
