nnova, a German company with leading mold-cooling technology, and the Plastics Division of Bayer Corporation have formed a strategic alliance to provide new ways to reduce cost while improving overall part quality. Innova’s strengths include conformal cooling and bonding technology. Bayer  —a major supplier of advanced engineering resins—brings expertise in mold cooling system design, thermal imaging, advanced processing technologies, material/part performance testing and computer-aided engineering analysis. Customers can see a demonstration of and evaluate the technology at Bayer’s Technical Center in Pittsburgh.

NEWRULESFOROLDTOOLS ith today’s declining profit margins, the need to improve injection-molding productivity is greater than ever. In this process, mold cool time is the most important parameter for reducing cycle time. With conventional cooling system designs, it is often difficult to bring cooling channels close to the mold cavity surface. Technology from Bayer and Innova, however, now allows for the placement of the channels in close proximity to the
