Hasco America Inc. offers innovative plug inserts and cables to enable fast and space-saving wiring of power/signal plugs to the mold. With an extended product range, the company’s hot runner offers even more possibilities to make applications more efficient and less expensive.

For applications in which the premium cable as per DIN 16765 with its special inserts, metal mesh shielding and robust silicone sheath is not necessary, Hasco offers the cable H1251/… with aluminium shielding and PVC covering. This not only offers outstanding protection against interference signals, but it is also very attractively priced. Available in four different wiring variants and lengths of 3 and 6 metres, it enables solutions for individual applications.

A plug that sets new standards in the wiring of injection molds is proving to be particularly user-friendly. The integrated fasteners do not need any tools to securely fix the strands. A mechanism in the plug holds the cable firmly and at the same time enables easier removal. As also necessary with previous wiring, cable lugs are required and the wiring time itself can be reduced by 75 % compared with the screwed variant.

In view of space problems in the mold area, the company offers a new plug, which not only has an impressive 12 control zones, but also maintains the maximum load ability of 16A per zone. This means that less space is needed for the plug connections in the mold and large, complex terminal boxes are outdated. The bulkhead housing is identical to the previous 6-zone plug inserts.

Finally, the company now offers a connecting cable to fit the new plug with the new compact plug layout and proven wiring. This means that the existing control technology can continue to be used without problem.
