HOT RUNNERS
Pronto Direct™
Pronto Direct hot runners are ready to order, affordable and an ideal solution for handling tight time-to-market windows. Quite simply, they deliver high performance without a high price.
Best of all, you can still custom-configure the solution, including the manifold and injection nozzle components of Pronto Direct hot runners, giving you outstanding flexibility and productivity. Enjoy higher Husky quality at a fraction of the cost—the very same quality hot runner and manifold performance that made Husky a top choice for the automotive, packaging and consumer electronics industries. They are also a smart choice for testing applications and developing key understandings about prototype molding before scaling up to more complex cavitation.
Why are Pronto Direct hot runners so affordable? They are engineered based on our ability to utilize internal automation tools. Decreasing our number of design steps does not impact quality, but it does ensure repeatability. Even better, their ease of configuration enables us to offer you reduced lead times and rapid shipping, worldwide.
You have many configuration options to choose from. And each one comes with our industry-leading Husky hot runner warranty. Quick to configure. Quick to deliver. That’s Pronto Direct. Start configuring yours today.
