Best Award
HASCO takes first place in the category Mouldmaking and Design
The innovative HASCO Streamrunner Multicolour made a convincing impression in the readers’ vote and finished in first place in the category “Mouldmaking and Design“. At the victory ceremony, Executive Vice President Florian Larisch and Product Manager Sebastian Hohenauer (HASCO hot runner) were particularly delighted to win the Product of the Year, and proudly accepted the award.
Streamrunner Multicolour
With the additively manufactured HASCO Streamrunner, a new age has begun in the world of hot runner technology. Developed with state-of-the-art technologies, this product creates new possibilities for mouldmakers and injection moulders.
Design freedom in new dimensions
The Streamrunner is an additively manufactured hot runner with maximum design freedom. With this technology the flow channels can be optimally designed in rheological terms by completely avoiding sharp edges and areas with poor throughflow properties. This gentle passage of the melt leads to considerably lower shear rates and consequently to better quality of the injection-moulded parts. Colour changes can also be carried out faster through the flow-optimised design because the material can be guided via large deflection radii.
Multi-component injection moulding at a new level
Through the free three-dimensional design of the runners, completely new possibilities are also created in multi-component injection moulding. Different plastic components or colours can be spread over a very small space and the runners can be intertwined. This allows product designers to overcome existing restrictions in the design of plastic mouldings and to utilise new design options.
Through the use of the Streamrunner, injection-moulded parts can be produced cost-effectively. The compact design requires smaller mould sizes and thus smaller injection moulding machines for production. In addition, the low mass of the manifold block reduces energy consumption, thus achieving an additional cost saving.
HASCO keeps a close watch on the rapid developments being made in the field of additive manufacturing and constantly updates the manufacture of the Streamrunner to take the latest innovations into account.
