Abstract
A hot-runner system (100), including (but not limited to): a mold insert (132) defining a mold gate (134); and a diamond-based component connected with the mold insert (132), the diamond-based component connected surrounding the mold gate (134).
Claims10
A method (800) of manufacturing a hot-runner system (100), the method (800) comprising:
- manufacturing (802) a hot-runner component (102);
- and
- affixing (804) a solid diamond-based material to the hot-runner component (102),
- wherein the solid diamond-based material exists in a solid state prior to being affixed to the hot-runner component (102).
1 more element
A hot-runner system (100), comprising:
- a mold insert (132) defining a mold gate (134);
- and
- a diamond-based component connected with the mold insert (132), the diamond-based component connected surrounding the mold gate (134).
A hot-runner system (100), comprising:
- a first hot-runner component (500);
- a second hot-runner component (502) being movable relative to the first hot-runner component (500);
- and
- a diamond-based component being located between the first hot-runner component (500) and the second hot-runner component (502), the diamond-based component reducing wear and friction between the first hot-runner component (500) and the second hot-runner component (502).
1 more element
A hot-runner system (100), comprising:
- a manifold assembly (999);
- a manifold thermal-management device (998) being coupled to the manifold assembly (999);
- and
- a diamond-based component (997) being positioned between the manifold assembly (999) and the manifold thermal-management device (998).
