How To Choose The Heat Transfer Oil For The Injection Molding Mold Temperature Controller?

Injection molding dedicated mould temperature controller machines are auxiliary temperature control devices applied in the production and molding process of injection molding machines. They can heat the injection molds to the production process temperature and maintain the temperature of the injection molds stably at the required value for a long time. According to the different heating and heat transfer media, they can be divided into Water mould temperature controller machines and oil mould temperature controller machines.

Hengde Company, a leading enterprise in the field of industrial temperature control equipment, has rich experience in the research, development, and production of mould temperature controller machines. Our mould temperature controllers are widely recognized for their high quality and excellent performance. When it comes to the oil mould temperature controller machines dedicated to injection molding, how should one select the appropriate heat transfer oil?

Hengde Company recommends that when purchasing heat transfer oil for injection molding dedicated mould temperature controller machines, you can consider the following key aspects:

1. Temperature Range

Different mould temperature controller machines have different temperature requirements. Therefore, it is necessary to choose heat transfer oil that can meet these temperature needs. Generally speaking, the higher the temperature of the mould temperature controller machine, the lower the viscosity of the heat transfer oil; conversely, the lower the temperature of the mould temperature controller machine, the higher the viscosity. Thus, when selecting heat transfer oil, it is essential to ensure that its viscosity matches the temperature of the mould temperature controller machine.

2. Performance of Heat Transfer Oil

The key performance indicators of heat transfer oil include high-temperature resistance, viscosity, flash point, carbon residue, acid value, and moisture content, etc. Ensure that the selected heat transfer oil can withstand the operating temperature of the mould temperature controller machine and has a long service life. High quality heat transfer oil should have a high thermal conductivity coefficient, good thermal stability, and a long service life. These properties can ensure that the heat transfer oil is not easily decomposed or oxidized at high temperatures, thereby extending the service life of the mould temperature controller machine.

3. Environmental Performance of Heat Transfer Oil

Nowadays, more and more enterprises pay attention to environmental protection. Therefore, it is also necessary to choose environmentally friendly heat transfer oil. Environmentally friendly heat transfer oil is friendly to the environment, does not produce harmful substances, and is in line with the current trend of green environmental protection.

4. Price of Heat Transfer Oil

The prices of heat transfer oils of different brands and models vary. Generally speaking, high quality heat transfer oil is more expensive. Therefore, when selecting heat transfer oil, on the premise of ensuring performance and environmental performance, try to choose heat transfer oil with a reasonable price. At the same time, choose brands with a good reputation to ensure that their quality and performance meet relevant industry standards and certification requirements.

In conclusion, when selecting heat transfer oil for injection molding dedicated mould temperature controller machines, multiple factors such as the temperature range, performance, environmental performance, and price should be comprehensively considered to select the most suitable heat transfer oil. Hengde Company is committed to providing customers with professional solutions and high-quality mould temperature controllers. Additionally, pay attention to choosing a regular heat transfer oil supplier to ensure that the purchased heat transfer oil is of reliable quality and reasonable price. For example, ESSO 50, Mobil 603, and Mobil 605 are all good choices. Oils cannot be mixed, as this will create sludge and cause blockage. Please replace the circulating oil regularly. If the unit is used at temperatures above 150°C for extended periods, check the oil every three to six months and replace it based on the actual situation. When replacing the circulating oil, be sure to prevent water or foreign objects from entering the tank.
