MCSe® – Hot runner controller

Precise control with simple operation

  • Precise and fast control
    Intelligent control algorithms with expert knowledge and over 30 years of experience in injection molding guarantee optimum control behavior.
  • Comprehensive process monitoring
    Various monitoring functions control the control behavior and the process parameters and signal corresponding deviations.
  • Simple operation
    Two displays per zone and function-oriented membrane keys ensure easy and safe operation.

Hot runner controller Economic – MCSe®

The MCSe hot runner controllers adopt the field-proven technology of thousands of MCS series hot runner controllers in a more compact design, for a reduced number of control loops. The performance spectrum of the MCS hot runner controllers is based on years of close cooperation with the plastics processing industry. Increased attention has been paid to ensuring that user-friendly operation is also taken into account when meeting all the demands placed on a modern hot runner controller. MCSe units are available for 2 to max. 12 control loops in one housing.
