What is a Thermoregulator?
Water and Oil Type Mold Conditioners, Heat Regulators
The original term for the word thermoregulator, "thermal" and "regulator", is formed by the combination of the English words "thermal" and "regulator", and are machines that regulate heat, as the name suggests.
In applications where temperature needs to be adjusted very specifically, such as mold cooling and heating processes, thermoregulators are used as tools that provide the necessary precision. In the mold industry, high-quality products can only be obtained through this precision. Thermoregulators developed by MIT engineers are designed to gradually heat and cool with precision.
There are many different mold techniques, and thermoregulators are used as heat regulators in all of them. For example, in plastic injection machines, the required mold temperature is different during filling and after filling. In order for the high-temperature liquid not to freeze when filling the mold and not to deteriorate, the mold must also be at a high temperature, and after filling, the mold must be cold in order for the liquid to solidify and be ready to be removed from the mold in the most appropriate time. For this reason, in order to ensure thermal balance, MIT Thermoregulators (heat regulators) are frequently used in plastic injection machines.
In order to produce quality products with plastic mold injection, it is essential to use a high-quality thermoregulator. Liquid plastic needs to have a stable heat balance first in order to remain in liquid form, and then it needs to be rapidly cooled to solidify. Without using a thermoregulator, it is close to impossible to meet these two requirements. MIT branded thermoregulators achieve this optimization with resistors in the heating part and with cooling water connected from the chiller line in the cooling part. In cases where cooling water cannot be provided, complementary MIT branded complete cooling systems are installed. Thanks to this working principle, efficiency increases, energy consumption decreases, most importantly, time is saved, and production capacity increases.
