Conducta Plunger
Conducta Plunger is produced using high-strength Cu-Be alloy.
The plunger is fixed to its holder using a special bayonet locking design.
Inner channels are specifically designed to achieve optimum cooling during the injection process.
Conducta Plunger is available in 2 versions depending on the casting process and application:
Conducta B: Solid plunger with bayonet fitting
Conducta B-R: Ring plunger with bayonet fitting and a replaceable frontal ring
HTS DIFFERENCE
Advantages over conventional plunger
Assembly allows minor misalignment
Compared to a conventional lock system between plunger and holder, the coupling is done using a special bayonet system. This one provides a small functional play between both the holder and plunger, compensating for small misalignments.
Cycle time reduction
Compared with a conventionally made plunger, the cooling arrangement is optimized, resulting in more efficient and homogenous cooling and solidification of the biscuit.
Assembly and removal of the ring are straightforward and can be done directly on the machine, avoiding any waste of time.
Longer lifetime
The assembly of the Conducta plunger with its holder has been specially designed: the holder itself rests against the inner surface of the plunger absorbing the total injection pressure and avoiding cracks and fatigue.
