HFT GmbH & Co. KG

The success of HFT, a company founded in 2007 for customized hot runner technology in Lorsch, is based on decades of experience of its employees. In the field of hot runner and plastics, the company offers practical know-how. It also supports speedy order processing and provides sound advice on all aspects of plastic injection molding. With this know-how, the family-run company has established itself as a partner to medium-sized companies over the past 13 years. This is also reflected in many long-term relationships with customers.

The heart of technology in plastic injection molding

The matched hot runner, always designed rheologically, is the heart of the hot mold side in plastic injection molding. HFT's experts also adjust it in such a way that the dimensions of the nozzle side required for perfect installation are maintained in accordance with design specifications. Special solutions in hot runner technology are also a specialty of the company. The specialists produce individual hot runners. The experts adapt these precisely to the existing mold, to the machinery and to the user's existing control system. Challenges in the form of complicated component geometries can be transformed by the experienced designers at HFT into economical, process-reliable solutions. The high-quality production and measurement of the systems is carried out entirely in-house. In addition, the experienced specialists also rework and optimize defective or problematic hot runner systems from all suppliers.

Very robust hot runner technology

All hot runners from HFT are extremely robust by design. They therefore ensure a very long system service life. Furthermore, the systems are designed in such a way that users can quickly carry out start-up times as well as color changes in plastic injection molding. In their design, the hot runner experts also place great emphasis on easy handling and good accessibility. This applies not only to clean and clear cable routing. Maintenance time and extremely infrequent replacement due to wear are consequently reduced to a minimum. The process-safe thermal interaction between hot runner technology, control system and nozzle group are a guarantee for the shortest possible cycle time. The specialists at HFT also achieve this with a very economical use of materials. The aim is always to ensure the optimum injection molding quality of the component with maximum cost-effectiveness.
