We support EFI’s hot runner controller and connectivity solutions by identifying the right applications, advising on system specification, and ensuring seamless communication between UK customers and EFI’s engineering team. From initial enquiry through to installation and ongoing support, we help ensure that customers benefit from reliable, high-performance temperature control and cable systems, backed by responsive, on-the-ground expertise in the UK market
Electronics For Industry (EFI), based in Norwich, is a specialist in hot runner temperature control systems and associated connectivity solutions for the plastics processing industry. Through our partnership, SG Moulding Solutions brings EFI’s proven expertise directly to UK moulders looking to improve process consistency, reduce scrap, and protect critical tooling assets.
EFI designs and manufactures multi-zone hot runner controllers tailored to the needs of injection moulders and toolmakers. These systems are engineered for accuracy, reliability, and ease of use in demanding production environments.
Key features include:
EFI systems help eliminate common hot runner issues such as temperature imbalance, stringing, gate freeze, and material degradation, all of which directly impact product quality and cycle time.
Beyond controllers, EFI is particularly strong in the supply and specification of high-quality hot runner connectivity solutions, an often overlooked but critical part of system reliability.
Their offering includes:
Correct cable and conduit specification is essential to avoid signal loss, temperature inaccuracies, and premature component failure—all of which can lead to costly downtime or tooling damage.
Why This Matters for Moulders
Hot runner systems are only as reliable as their control and connectivity infrastructure. EFI’s integrated approach ensures:
For high-output packaging applications, where even small variations can lead to significant waste, this level of control is critical.
SG Moulding Solutions works with EFI to:
By combining EFI’s specialist engineering with SG Moulding Solutions’ industry focus, we deliver complete hot runner control solutions—from cabinet to connector—helping processors achieve greater efficiency, reliability, and product quality.
Electronics For Industry (EFI) supplies a wide range of multi-zone hot runner temperature controllers, from compact units for small tools through to large, high-zone systems for complex, multi-cavity packaging moulds. Each system is configurable to suit specific tooling and production requirements.
Yes. SG Moulding Solutions works closely with both the customer and EFI to ensure the correct controller size, zone configuration, and cable setup are selected. This ensures optimal performance, reliability, and ease of integration with your existing equipment.
Absolutely.
