NPE2018: Valve gate technology

Italian hot runner specialist HRSflow is set to hold 4 FLEXflow live moulding demonstrations in cooperation with its project partners that include materials suppliers, mould makers and injection moulding machine manufacturers. The presentations of hot runner solutions tailored to the injection moulding of complex, large-format parts with demanding quality requirements are set to highlight the advantages of HRSflow valve gate solutions.
