New Advanced feature for the FLEXflow Controller: from the simulation analysis to the molded part.

The operator thus obtains ideal settings that perfectly match the simulation software, minimizing set-up times during the try out. The result is a real benefit in terms of cost, time and high-quality part performance.

The new application has been developed to easily allow the direct upload of the ideal receipt from the simulation software to the controller through a simple memory stick. All the nozzle opening and closing data sequenced during the injection phase are quickly available to give the operator all necessary settings. The software detects and automatically sets the total number and names of the nozzles, including the open and close trigger types and values, the opening/closing profiles and, if necessary, the warning alarms detected during the import procedure.

Proven to deliver precision, control and reliability, the new FLEXflow Control Unit Software ensures performance without compromise: maximum reliability of the process, optimization of machine and mold set-up time, simplification of the operator’s work, no useless waste of plastics material, 100% compliance to customer needs and FLEXflow benefits that can be realized immediately.

This new version can be implemented in all existing FLEXflow control units currently using the last hardware version released in 2017 without any technical effort from the customer side. The update can be easily done also through remote control.  Every already existing recipe will be automatically translated into the new profile and will be totally compatible with the previous one without any adjustments.
