The Mouldflo Flow Monitoring System - Advanced monitoring system for injection moulding machines

surveillanceofproduction7814

Surveillance of production

The Mouldflo Flow Monitoring System gives you the knowledge you need to improve your production value, optimise your energy efficiency and protect your moulds.

The advanced monitoring solution for injection moulding machines monitors temperature, pressure and flow in the cooling circuits, using high-quality intelligent manifolds, mounted directly on the machine.

By quickly identifying and alerting you about cooling complications, you are always three steps ahead of any issues in your production.

Make data-driven decisions

The Mouldflo System monitors temperature, pressure and flow in the cooling circuits within the mould.

This gives you vital information about how your production is performing as well as the knowledge you need to improve your production value, optimise your energy efficiency and protect your moulds.

The system is easy to install and it is compatible with almost any type of injection moulding machine.

 

Automated quality assurance
By using the system's alarm functionality, you will be automatically alerted, whenever an issue arises and when parameters differ from your preferred machine settings. This makes the system work as a watchdog of various common cooling circuit problems, such as:

  • Lack of water flow from the mould heater
  • Blocked waterways
  • Scale or rust build up
  • Incorrect piping
agileandcustomizedsolution7817

Agile and customised solution

 

The monitoring system is very agile and can be adjusted and expanded over time, as your production grows or changes.

Multiple manifolds can be electronically 'daisy-chained' together to accommodate the necessary number of cooling channels.

The system will automatically identify new manifolds and display them on the screen.

The intelligent manifolds comes in a variety of sizes and installations. This means, that we can provide you with a solution tailored specifically for your requirements.​

 

 

 

wecancalibrateyourmanifoldforyou9010

Do you need to calibrate your manifold before use? 

- Don’t worry, you can have us calibrate your manifold for you. 

When you purchase a new manifold, you can have us perform and certify the validation of the manifold for you. Or you can purchase our calibration unit and do the validation yourself.  

We recommend that you calibrate your manifold at least once a year.

Varroc Lighting Systems
Mouldflo helps us start our production faster, making the time it takes to change a mould more efficient by nearly 10 minutes. It saves us important time and it has improved our work flow considerably.

T E Connectivity
Just having the flow monitoring has been a huge troubleshooting advantage, as we have been able to compare flow through the three different molds that we have been sampling. We immediately found that one of the new tools had a blocked circuit and were able to fix it right away.

aluminium6992

Aluminum Manifold

- RECOMMENDED FOR ALUMINIUM MOULDS

 

The aluminium manifold is extruded with integrated T-slots on two faces for flexible mounting. The manifold is robust and has a black anodised aluminium exterior to resist corrosion. The design is compact and integrated, meaning that the manifold consists of very few separate parts. 

It is available with 4, 8 or 12 ports with standard 50mm between each. It has two 1,5" flow inlets and outlets, which offers maximum flexibility when mounting and connecting to the water supply.

 

Suitable for narrow spaces

The Aluminium manifolds are also available in short pitch versions with 35mm between each cooling circuit port, resulting in a more compact design, that can fit into very small spaces.

 

Customise your manifold

​To match your specific requirements the aluminium manifold is available in several different versions. You can customise your own manifold with a variety of different specifications to choose from: 

  • Flow range (1-15 L/min or 2-40 L/min)
  • Number of ports (4, 8, 12)
  • Pitch length (Standard (50mm) or short pitch (35mm))
  • Thread standard (BSPP or NPT)

Stainless steel Manifold

– RECOMMENDED FOR STEEL MOULDS

 

The stainless steel manifold is constructed from AISI304 stainless steel with easily accessible holes on two faces for simple mounting. The compact and robust manifold resists corrosion, thanks to the property of stainless steel.

It is available with 4, 8 or 12 ports with 50mm between each. It has two 1" BSPP flow inlets and outlets, which offers maximum flexibility when mounting and connecting to the water supply.

Mouldflo offers the stainless steel manifold in regular or High Temperature version, which goes up to 120°C (default is 95°C).

 

Customise your manifold

​To match your specific requirements the stainless steel manifold is available in several different versions. You can customise your own manifold with a variety of different specifications to choose from: 

  • Flow range (1-20 L/min or 2-40 L/min)
  • Number of ports (4, 8, 12)
  • Standard or high temperature (120°C)
  • Port thread ( BSPP or NPT)
