Microgel Syncro Frigel’s innovative TCU is digitally synchronized with the mold and provides cold water only during the cooling phase. The TCU uses this synchronization to find the best compromise between part quality and cycle time. Rather than circulating water through the mold continuously, for most of the cycle the water is at a low flow phase. When the cooling phase begins, the Microgel Syncro pumps the water at a high flow rate.
What’s new? The Microgel Syncro TCU.
Benefits Lower operating costs and a high ROI. Microgel Syncro decreases scrap and energy use, and can reduce cycle time by as much as 40 percent and boost production as much as 50 percent. Part quality is improved as mold filling is optimized. The system is easy to use, with real-time analysis of specific energy consumption, and it can save configurations for each mold, while an online wizard helps users find stored recipes. No modifications to the mold are required.
