Next-Generation ALTANIUM®

ALTANIUM NEO6™ CONTROLLER

Altanium Neo6™ mold controllers from Husky have a proven reputation for value and precise temperature control. And now, you can configure a Neo6™ controller directly on our website. With our online configurator, you can design and spec the right mold controller for your needs. We’ll confirm your order, build your mold controller and ship it directly to you—saving time and money. The configurator also enables you to spec and order a performance-matched Husky Pronto Direct™ hot runner.

Altanium Delta6™ Controller

Optimized for 24- to 96-cavity applications, the Delta6™ supports up to 128 zones of hot runner temperature control, making it well suited for any molding market from automotive to medical. With its 15.6" full-color high-definition touchscreen interface, the Delta6™ offers single-touch simplicity to take advantage of several high-value features for maintaining productivity, troubleshooting issues in the mold and ensuring seamless, trouble-free startups. In addition to temperature control, the Delta6™ controller is also available with up to 16 circuits of hydraulic or pneumatic valve gate sequencing control or precision servo control for the UltraSync-ETM plate-actuated valve-gated hot runner system. If you want significant value and premium performance at an affordable price, the Delta6™ controller is the technology for your hot runner needs.

Altanium Matrix6™ Controllers

As the flagship Altanium^® operator interface, the Matrix6™ controller is truly a mold control solution like none other in the molding industry. From its 22" high-definition touchscreen and powerful Windows-based industrial computer, the Matrix6™ controller is all about performance. Optimized for high-cavitation molds (>96) with support for 2 to 254 zones of temperature control, it includes all the features and functionality of the Delta6™ operator interface, including 32 circuits of hydraulic or pneumatic valve gate sequencing control and more. In addition to UltraSync-E control, the Matrix6™ is also available with up to eight individual servo valve gate axes for the ultimate in valve stem motion control, and up to six axes of servo-controlled mold actuation.

Besides the number of supported control technologies, what truly differentiates the Matrix6™ mold temperature controller is that all this control is integrated into a single unit and combined on one screen, providing unprecedented access and ease of use. The Matrix6™ controller is the only controller you need for your entire mold.

Altanium^® Connectivity

The network connectivity of Altanium^® mold controllers enables greater efficiencies and faster decision making. They’re Industry 4.0- and IIoT-ready. They also offer remote support, interface with injection molding machines and devices on the floor, and exchange data with process control and manufacturing execution systems.

Our available OPC UA server and Europmap 82.2 machine interface can connect with your manufacturing plant’s process or production monitoring systems, enabling the user to read, write and collect data to improve overall equipment effectiveness. In addition, VNC (Virtual Network Computing) technology enables the machine to become the central point of control for the entire injection molding cell, reducing movement between different devices.

Altanium^® DataWave 2.0 Technology

Altanium^® DataWave 2.0 is a single-cable thermocouple technology for Altanium® Mold Controllers that eliminates conventional thermocouple cables.

This solution moves the analog to digital conversion of the thermocouple signal from the Altanium^® controller to a module that plugs into the thermocouple connectors on the hot runner electrical box. DataWave 2.0 processes the thermocouple signals at the mold and returns the temperature data to the controller through a small-diameter data cable. This technology simplifies cable management, reduces failure rates, and lowers costs.

Altanium^® Valve Gate Sequencer (VGS)

Vale gate control is critically important when molding multi-gated, colored or glass-filled parts due to their complex structural and surface finish requirements. The Altanium^® valve gate sequencer manages the fill sequence by precisely controlling when pneumatic or hydraulic valve gates open and close during each injection cycle. With control for up to 32 valve gates and a packing feature that allows a single valve gate to open and close as many as three times in a single cycle, the Altanium^® valve gate sequencer delivers unprecedented control over weld or knit line positioning. It also aids in mechanical balancing of family molds and helps reduce clamp tonnage requirements by utilizing a cascading fill technique.

Another high-value feature is an at-temperature function with soak timer, which protects gates and valve stems by preventing any actuation until the mold reaches optimum processing temperature and has soaked long enough to allow stems to move freely. Coupled with industry-leading temperature control technology, Altanium^® VGS helps you produce structurally rugged and visually appealing parts, cycle after cycle.

Altanium^® Servo Control

Electrically actuating mold movements using servo motors is the future, and Husky is leading the way. Our servo control ensures greater precision and control of movement to increase mold life, and is compatible with a variety of motor types, enabling easy repurposing for different molds. It is also cleaner and more energy-efficient than traditional methods of mold actuation. Additionally, its built-in data collection and event tracking features provide instant access to motion performance to prevent potential mold damage or compromised part quality. Husky provides engineering support to ensure your servo motor is right-sized for your application. You are also assured of global startup support, on-site or remotely, and training for smoother integration into your production process.
