An injection molding mold including: a flow path through which a molten resin passes; a main body portion including an introduction portion configured to introduce the molten resin into the flow path and a supply portion configured to supply the molten resin from the flow path to a cavity mold; and a plug unit formed with a plug flow path which is a part of the flow path, the plug unit being attachable to the main body portion, in which a prevention portion configured to prevent a pressure loss from occurring when the molten resin passes through the flow path is formed at a portion of the plug flow path where a moving direction of the molten resin changes.

An injection molding apparatus having a valve pin plate coupling at least one valve pin to an actuator which, in operation, axially moves the valve pin plate between a closed position and an open position. The valve pin is coupled to the valve pin plate via a valve pin coupler. A biasing member is compressed against a support surface by the valve pin holder when the valve pin plate is in the closed position to create a supplementary coupling force coupling the valve pin to the valve pin holder.

An actuator system for an injection molding system includes a double acting pressurized fluid actuator having a piston drive movable in a cylinder space, a flow control valve for regulating a flow rate of pressurized fluid to and/or from the cylinder space, a flow sensor for detecting the flow rate of pressurized fluid to and/or from the cylinder space, and an electronic controller for controlling the flow control valve to regulate the flow rate of pressurized fluid to and/or from the cylinder space depending on the flow rate detected by the flow sensor.

In a method and an injection-molding nozzle for producing injection-molded parts from plastic with an injection mold, the plastic melt in the form of at least one ribbon-like strand of melt is injected through a nozzle slit into a cavity of the injection mold before the injection-molded part is demolded once the plastic melt has solidified. The plastic melt is exposed to heat in the region of the sprue during solidifying in the cavity and the sprue is torn off during demolding of the injection-molded part along the nozzle slit in the region of the sprue as a result of the temperature gradient between the solidified injection-molded part and the plastic melt.
