What to do if my EWIKON Control Unit controller indicates a broken thermocouple and no temperature value is displayed?
If your EWIKON Control Unit controller indicates a broken thermocouple and no temperature value is displayed, check the thermocouple at the nozzle, the thermocouple cable, and the controller.
Why are my EWIKON HPS III nozzles drooling?
If your EWIKON Control Unit nozzles are drooling, there might be several reasons. The temperature of the nozzles could be too high. Alternatively, consider increasing the machine nozzle bore to 8 - 10 mm or increasing decompression. It may also be that the gating point is too large.
How to fix if temperature of control zone exceeds set temperature in EWIKON HPS III Control Unit?
If the temperature of a control zone exceeds the set temperature in your EWIKON Control Unit, check if the thermocouple and power connections are allocated correctly. Heat up each zone separately to ensure correct allocation.
What to do if EWIKON HPS III nozzle does not heat up properly?
If your EWIKON Control Unit nozzle does not heat up properly, check the assembly geometry of the hot runner. Also, check the resistance of the concerned heating zone and the thermocouple.
What to do if there are burns on part in one cavity within a multi-cavity mould using EWIKON Control Unit?
If you observe burns on a part in one cavity within a multi-cavity mould using an EWIKON Control Unit, check the nozzle. Specifically, check and compare voltage values of all nozzles at a given current.
What to do if EWIKON Control Unit indicates broken thermocouple?
If your EWIKON Control Unit indicates a broken thermocouple and no temperature value is displayed, check the thermocouple at the nozzle, the thermocouple cable, and the controller.
How to fix hot runner leakage in EWIKON HPS III Control Unit?
In case of hot runner leakage in your EWIKON Control Unit, ensure there is sufficient preload. Also, verify that the fits used for sealing of the system are in good condition.
What does it mean if thermocouple indicates a temperature value too low in EWIKON Control Unit?
If the thermocouple indicates a temperature value that is too low on your EWIKON Control Unit, it could be due to a jammed thermocouple. The temperature displayed would be that of the position in the mold where it is jammed, typically between the mold and room temperature.
Why is there short decrease or increase in temperature (temperature fluctuations) in EWIKON HPS III?
If your EWIKON Control Unit shows short decreases or increases in temperature (temperature fluctuations), the power or thermo cables might not have proper contact, or there could be humidity in the heater.
Why does EWIKON HPS III thermocouple indicates wrong temperature value?
If the thermocouple indicates a wrong temperature value on your EWIKON Control Unit, it means that a wrong type of thermocouple is allocated in the controller.
