Rhytemper® FlexControl is an advanced multi-circuit temperature control system that precisely regulates the heat removal of each individual temperature zone within the injection mould. By continuously measuring both temperature and flow rate, the system ensures consistently high product quality and enables the shortest possible cycle times.
Rhytemper® FlexControl
Multi-circuit pulse temperature control in plastics processing
Installation example of a 24-circuit system at a customer site

Accessories
ONI RHYTEMPER Temperatur Control Units
The high-performance temperature control units from ONI Temperiertechnik RHYTEMPER® GmbH are ideal for use as stand-alone systems or, even more efficiently, in combination with an ONI temperature control installation.
ONI Rhytemper® Mold Drainage System
ONI temperature control systems come with perfectly matched accessories. Blow-out units are used for the effective emptying of cooling channels in injection molds before a mold change. This process reliably protects the cooling channels from corrosion during storage.
Filter unit
Perfectly matched accessories are available for ONI tempering systems. Filter units help prevent tool contamination and system malfunctions caused by dirt or metallic deposits from the cooling water network, ensuring reliable and sustainable operation.
