Axxicon and Moldsonics present unique solution for flow velocity measurement in injection molding

by | Feb, 2025

Axxicon and Moldsonics have jointly developed a new flow velocity measurement system for injection molding. MoldFront flow velocity measurement enables non-contact and reliable monitoring of the material flow during the injection molding process. Thanks to continuous real-time data acquisition, deviations can be detected at an early stage and corrected in a targeted manner.

Thomas Mitterlehner, CEO of Moldsonics, and Niels Bons, Business Development Manager at Axxicon, finalize their collaboration to combine AIM Quick Change technology with Moldsonics' non-contact flow velocity measurement. 

Easier control for the operator

The new solution significantly simplifies the monitoring and control of the manufacturing process for tensile test specimens. Operators benefit from an intuitive speed display, as the MoldFront sensor system precisely records the flow speed without calibration and displays it in real time. This reduces incorrect settings and improves the reproducibility of production results.

Advantages of MoldFront flow velocity measurement in injection molding

  • Greater precision in the production of tensile test specimens and therefore more accurate material data.
  • No risk of contaminationas the sensor does not come into contact with the material.
  • Fewer customer complaints due to highly accurate material data
  • ISO-compliant tensile test specimenswithout sensor markings that could influence the test result.
  • Simple installation and seamless integration into existing injection molding systems.

Axxicon and Moldsonics focus on innovative solutions to improve quality and efficiency in injection molding and material testing. This cooperation makes it possible to become even more precise in the production of test specimens and thus ensure highly accurate material data.
