A hot runner assembly for a molding system, the molding system having a mold and having a stationary platen and a movable platen, the hot runner assembly comprising:
- a hot runner having a drop being connectable to a gate of the mold defining a mold cavity, the mold and the hot runner being orientable relative to each other so as to connect the drop in a selected location relative to the mold cavity;
- and
- a rotatable ring mounted to the stationary platen and fixedly mounted to the hot runner, the rotatable ring being configured to accommodate rotatable adjustable mounting of the hot runner relative to the stationary platen.
A molding system, comprising:
- an extruder having a machine nozzle;
- a stationery platen;
- a movable platen being configured to mountably accommodate a mold at least in part, the mold being operatively connectable with the machine nozzle of the extruder;
- and
- a hot runner assembly, including:
- a hot runner having a drop being connectable to a gate of the mold defining a mold cavity, the mold and the hot runner being orientable relative to each other so as to connect the drop in a selected location relative to the mold cavity;
- and
- a rotatable ring mounted to the stationary platen and fixedly mounted to the hot runner, the rotatable ring being configured to accommodate rotatable adjustable mounting of the hot runner relative to the stationary platen.
