Cavity Pressure Sensors
Cavity pressure sensors are designed to fit in varied situations and molding environments. - Button-style sensors measure pressure indirectly via force applied by ejector pins
- Flush-mount sensors come into contact with the plastic, directly measuring pressure in the mold
- Load Washer Style Sensors measure pressure indirectly via force applied by ejector sleeves and cores
Our Technical Support Staff can help you find the appropriate style and placement. Optimize Cavity Pressure ControlRJG's world class decoupled molding processes addresses the importance of cavity pressure, cavity pressure sensors, pressure sensor placement, proper installation, and utilizing cavity pressure data to guarantee molds are ready to go. With RJG's scientific molding solutions, molders leapfrog past their competitors by setting an advanced decoupled molding process in place, containing abnormal parts including short shots, and finding solutions to ensure quality on high volume, high degree of difficulty jobs. In addition, with RJG, molders are able to confidently launch new programs and optimize cavity pressure control. RJG helps its customers simplify validation cavity pressure protocols using systematic, decoupled scientific molding techniques. This provides greater quality and reduces costs by making sure that the right things are being validated, and that you're not over validating.
