HB-Therm - Model Vario-5 -Switching Unit for Variothermal Temperature Control
Special challenges in injection molding processing can no longer be mastered with conventional temperature control. The solution is variothermal temperature control: high temperature during injection, cold temperature in the cooling phase. Together with two Thermo-5 temperature control units, the Vario-5 switching unit forms a variothermal system based on the fluid-fluid process. It alternately connects the hot and the cold device with the same temperature control circuit. With a suitable arrangement of the temperature control channels, existing tools can also be used. The Vario-5 is characterized by simple and quiet operation. It supports the user in determining the optimum setting.
Together with two temperature control units, the Vario-5 forms a variothermal system according to the fluid-fluid technique. Alternatingly, it links either the hot or the cold unit to the same circuit. It is quite possible to use existing moulds if the temperature control channels are suitably arranged. Vario-5 provides easy and quiet operation. It supports the user in determining the optimum settings.
