English

Subject field(s)
  • Plastics Manufacturing
  • Facilities and Equipment (Rubber)
DEF

An annular opening for introducing melt into a mold, used to make cylindrical parts.

CONT

In gating into hollow tubes, flow considerations can dictate an even injection flow pattern. A single gate is not sufficient. Four gates 90° from each other produce four flow lines down the side of the piece, which may be objectionable. To overcome this, a diaphragm gate is used. The inside of the hole is filled with plastic directly from the sprue and acts as a gate. It must be machined out later. A ring gate accomplishes the same thing from the outside.

OBS

ring gate: term standardized by ISO [International Organization for Standardization].
