You're familiar with this from real-world experience

Changes to the mold or the plasticizing unit are not noticed until scrap is produced

Cooling times are set during the sampling process and are not altered later for safety reasons

Fluctuations in material supply are having an impact, but their causes cannot be clearly identified

Processes are run "on the safe side" rather than based on a clear state

Decisions are based on experience, not on a measurable physical event

The process is underway, but the actual physical state remains invisible.

Our Approach:FACT VS. ASSUMPTION

In mass production, many processes can be run stably—even without knowing the actual physical conditions.

This is exactly where Moldsonics comes in:
We replace assumptions with measurable conditions.

Instead of using time, experience, or safety factors as a reference, we measure actual physical state changes where they occur—in the mold and in the plasticizing unit.

A clearly defined state is more reliable than any assumption.

Why customers choose Moldsonics

We do not measure signal waveforms—but rather clearly identifiable changes in physical state.

Ensure cooling time – without safety surcharges

We measure the physical endpoint of the cooling process directly within the mold—in a reproducible, cyclical manner, and independent of any assumptions.

Understanding filling behavior – cyclical and comparable

We detect defined start and end points of the flow process within the cavity and clearly highlight any deviations between cycles.

Detect wear early—before quality suffers

We monitor gradual changes in conditions in the plasticizing unit 24/7 during full-scale production—before they affect process stability or quality.

Determine the heating time and degree of cross-linking experimentally

We visualize the temporal progression and the endpoint of the network based on actual changes in physical states.

Developed and tested in collaboration withindustry and research partners.

Flow front detection in injection molding: Patented direct measurement

The flow front is one of the most critical—and at the same time least transparent—phases in the injection molding process. The switchover point is often defined indirectly based on pressure curves or empirical values. To avoid short shots or flash, settings are chosen conservatively. The...
