Our Hottest Deals This Month

Hot runner cables supplied from the hot runner (or controller) supplier or even when manufactured ‘in-house’ are normally made by using flexible conduit. Making cables in this way is very flexible – especially when trying to accommodate different wiring standards but, it is quite labour intensive and uses more materials and therefore an expensive way of making cables.

It is relatively easy to find Multicore Power and Thermocouple Cables – but, if the company hot runner wiring standard calls for a combination ie power and thermocouple in the same connector then traditionally there would be no choice but, to use conduit. Manufactured exclusively for Mouldpro the Multiflex Cable has both power and thermocouple combined in the same cable.

By using the multicore cables from Mouldpro – this is a much simpler and quicker way to make cables – literally threading the multi-core cable through a cable gland into the connector hood. These cable harnesses are easier to route around the moulding machine as they are both smaller in diameter and more flexible. When using multicore thermocouple wire it is always important to use a stranded wire rather than a solid conductor – these are more flexible and last significantly longer. As mould cavitation has increased; the number of heated nozzles and control circuits has also increased meaning more cables and heavier cables and it is very common that over time the conduit starts to split / pull apart and expose the cable inside which as well as looking unsightly is obviously a potential hazard and can cause control issues due to damaged wires or bad connections.
