Nozzle Heaters with clamp-band

Besides their own clamp-band designs Freek also manufactures original Rosemount clamp-bands that can be used as "Husky-replacement heaters" (see spare part cross-reference list). For example the two screw clamp band (FB) and the axial clamp band (FE). Freek has all the various industry standards for clamp-band nozzle heaters in Ø19,05 and Ø22,40 in their assortment, too. HotCoil minitubular heaters with clamp band are a highly demanded and very flexible clamping system, especially for heating larger nozzles and bushings with high power. The size-variable customizable clamp bands counteract the heating's thermal-related "lifting ambition" during heat-up and thus effectively prevent a possible critical overheating. For an even better protection all HotCoil heating elements can also be provided with an integrated thermocouple. As alternative to our standard clamping mechanism with welded clamping elements a space-saving lug clamping mechanism can be supplied.

The Freek heat transfer nozzle heater type especially addresses manufacturers and users who operated their hotrunner nozzles with cast-in heaters in the past and would like to stick to their engineering know-how without paying the high price of this former heater design. The standard material of our patent pending Freek heat transfer alternative is brass, with or without coating, basically with a slit. Characteristics of our HotMicroCoil nozzle heaters sheathed by a reflection tube are easy mounting and variable heat distribution. Because of its direct touch and toleranced fit, the heater allows a very good heat transmission to the nozzle. In all our HotMicroCoils with reflection tube the assembly of a thermocouple is possible and recommended for bigger diameters and power. Also most common nozzle heater solutions are HotMicrocoil heating elements with clamp bands with diverse locking mechanisms.

Besides its own systems Freek also manufactures original Rosemount-systems that can also be used as "Husky-replacement heater" (see spare part cross-reference list). For example the two screw clamp band (FB) and the axial clamp band (FE). Both systems can be supplied with MicroCoils in "Rosemount style" (Ø 1,4 mm) as well as MicroCoils in "Freek style" (1,3 x 2,3 mm).

The Freek heat transfer nozzle heating system especially addresses manufacturers and users who operated their hotrunner nozzles with cast-in heaters in the past and would like to stick to their engineering know-how without paying the high price of this former heater design. The standard material of our Freek heat transfer nozzle heater alternative is brass, with or without coating, preferably with a slit. The slit allows the assembly of an external bendable thermocouple and facilitates the disassembly, e.g. in case of a revision and can be coiled over. This is not possible at competitor's nozzle heater solutions. Freek's tight coiling at the heater's ends provides a maximum possible power concentration (patented).
