ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a method of manufacturing integral melt conveying nozzle probes for injection molding. The generic term nozzle probe is used herein to include both nozzles through which the melt flows centrally and probes which it flows along the outside of. The method includes forming a stainless steel outer member to receive an electrical heater member therein with a longitudinal space therein. A long thin thermocouple sleeve having a closed forward end is located in the space, which is then sealed against leakage by applying a nickel brazing paste to the joints and brazing them in a vacuum furnace. Copper is then cast into the space in a vacuum furnace to provide a metallurgical bond between the highly conductive copper and the heating element, the thermocouple sleeve and the other parts of the nozzle probe. After casting, a long thin drill is inserted into the sleeve to drill through the closed forward end and a predetermined distance into the copper. The use of the sleeve avoids the problem of the drill wondering slightly off line and ruining the whole unit. A thermocouple can be removably inserted into the bore with its head precisely located in the highly conductive material adjacent the forward end of the nozzle probe to provide an accurate and reliable measurement of temperature in this critical area.
