Husky Technologies announced the launch of a second-generation control algorithm for its line of Altanium mold controllers. The Advanced Reasoning Technology (ART 2.0) software delivers greater speed, accuracy, precision, and repeatability compared to today’s existing temperature control systems.

ART 2.0 incorporates advanced auto-tuning and heat-up strategies which deliver higher out-of-the-box performance. It consistently delivers high accuracy and control precision, significantly reducing variability in the molding process shot-after-shot and mold-after-mold. Test results show that ART 2.0 delivers up to 42% faster heat-up times with 30% less energy use.

“We’ve elevated our controller technology to a new level,” said Aurelien Bastien, Husky’s President of Hot Runners, Controllers & Medical. “The all-new tuning and control solution enhances performance while increasing productivity and significantly impacting a molder’s bottom line.”
