Testimonials
We tried for three months to balance a mold, and were feeling the pressure from our customer. BTI designed a MeltFlipper runner system that immediately caused all eight cavities to fill evenly, which quickly eased the strain on our customer relationship.
MeltFlipper technology certainly helped us design for success, and has made the mold and part approval process flow much easier.
After inserting the MeltFlipper technology in the mold, we immediately saw a tremendous improvement in balance, air traps, and core shift. The parts went from having a 0.014" core shift to only a 0.002" shift.
Since we installed the MeltFlipper seven months ago, we have run our tool with absolutely no problems with the mating assemblies. People who run multiple cavitation tooling will appreciate this feat.
After installing the MeltFlipper our runner system for a 16-cavity mold that had trouble holding ISO conical dimensions, we are now able to consistently run parts in spec.
It's been a pleasure working with BTI. They have given me a new understanding of plastic flow behaviors. We are retrofitting tools we have in the shop, as well as standardizing the MeltFlipper technology on all tools with eight or more cavities.
Some of our customers, after seeing the benefit of using MeltFlipper technology with MIE molds, have expressed an interest in licensing the technology for their internal molds as well.
The MeltFlipper technology is one of the most significant developments in injection molding in a long time. I am recommending it to all my clients who use multi-cavity molds.
Because we now have cavities filling at the same time with uniform material, we have a larger process window, which improves productivity and quality…the MeltFlipper technology is a faster, better engineered way to balance our tools.
Without any additional work, the MeltFlipper technology reduced our filling imbalance to less than 25% of our original imbalance.
I was skeptical at first, but when you understand how the MeltFlipper technology works, it makes a lot of sense.
I recommend that for high-tolerance parts, my clients either limit themselves to four cavities, or use technologies like the MeltFlipper technology.
BTI's level of responsiveness to our needs equals that of our best suppliers. For anyone working with multi-cavity molds, I don't see where it doesn't make sense to utilize the MeltFlipper technology.
Before using the MeltFlipper technology, we were lucky to get four usable parts out of an eight cavity mold. We tried changing process, press size, press type - nothing worked. Now all cavities fill evenly, and an eight cavity mold makes eight good parts
When we sampled our first MeltFlipper mold, the process technicians, tool makers, and engineers wanted to bet me their paychecks that the MeltFlipper technology wouldn't fix our imbalances. I wish I would have taken them up on it.
We utilized BTI’s MeltFlipper® technology in a 4-cavity gear mold, and the end result was a 50% improvement in the gear’s concentricity. As a result of the improvements, we now specify MeltFlipper technologies for all our precision gear molds!!!
I have had several issues within the past weeks which I have been able to more effectively troubleshoot because of what I learned in your training seminar.
Beaumont has much to offer the industry, so please exercise discretion, and don't let my competition know about your training seminars.

Omni Mold needed to build a 48-cavity hot-to-cold runner system to produce a tight tolerance medical device molded component. The high cavitations and the complexity of the mold prompted Omni Mold's engineers to contact Beaumont Technologies, Inc.
