A hot runner or hot manifold system is an assembly of a mold, heaters, controller and temperature-sensing components working together to manufacture the next plastic pen or automotive part.
First variations of hot runner systems started appearing in manufacturing in the mid-20th century but did not become standard in the industry until the 1980s, driven by the need for consistent quality and productivity improvements.
