Digital temperature interface for hot runner controllers
The TCBOX has 12 thermocouple measuring inputs and can be placed directly on the connection box of the injection mould. This eliminates the need for thermocouple cables from the hot runner to the control unit. The high-resolution temperature values of the control zones are sent to the hot-runner controller via a thin data cable. This allows maximum savings in terms of costs, space and handling. For example, the number of connecting cables between the hot runner mould and the hot runner controller can be reduced by up to 50%.
