The D-M-E Cool One is a set of standardized, pre-engineered components that can be incorporated into a hot runner mold to suit a specific application. The design of the Cool One places special emphasis on temperature control throughout the system. Standard Cool One components fall into two categories: Distributor System and Probes.
With the Cool One Distributor System, plastics are injected through the D-M-E Heated Nozzle Locator. The system consists of bores, gun-drilled into the distributor block. A smaller diameter distributor tube is inserted in each bore and centered with end caps. Material flowing in the bore, around the central tube, is kept molten by a thermocouple cartridge heater in the tube. Heating the material "from the inside out" is highly efficient as it allows heater loads to be considerably less than systems which heat from the outside in.
With Cool One Probes, molten material flows through the distributor system to intersect with the probes centered in the probe bores. The heated probes keep the material molten and flowing to the gates. D-M-E Auto Fixed probes are offered in three styles: finless with integral heaters, and finned or finless with replaceable heaters.
