Synventive molding solutions jbj have added a remarkable clever feature to their designed aluminium cast heater which is a hinge. This heater has the following benefits compared to the ordinary band heaters: the hinge makes it extremely easy to install or remove the heater, even in combination with other heaters positioned above or below the hinged heater on the same nozzle. The aluminium ensures constant contact with the nozzle tube providing the flow channel with an evenly distributed heat, resulting in a consistent melting temperature. As a result of used aluminium, extra protection can be given to the heater which ensures no local overheating makes a increase in lifetime.
