Safe cycle-time reduction for injection molding
COOL-END is an inline ultrasound-based system for detecting the physical end of cooling directly inside the mold during injection molding production.
The goal is to reduce conservative cooling times safely without increasing process risk, operator dependency or setup complexity.
Unlike optimization software or data-driven monitoring systems, COOL-END focuses on direct physical process validation in stable serial production environments. The system is designed to run passively in the background without requiring continuous operator interaction.
Current applications focus on technical injection molding parts, multi-shift production and OEM-integrated machine concepts. Typical use cases include: – safe cycle-time reduction – stabilization of conservative processes – reduction of unnecessary cooling reserves – reproducible process validation across serial production
The system is designed for industrial deployment: – retrofit capable – fail-safe operation – no machine intervention required – low operator complexity
We are looking for OEM partners and industrial production environments where measurable production impact and scalable deployment are relevant.
About Moldsonics
Moldsonics is an Austrian technology company specializing in ultrasonic sensor solutions for the plastics processing and injection molding industries. Founded in 2021 as a spin-off based on over a decade of research, the company develops hardware and software designed to provide real-time, high-precision measurement of physical state changes within the molding tool. By replacing assumptions with measurable data—such as flow front detection and cooling end-points—the technology allows manufacturers to optimize process stability, detect quality deviations, and monitor wear in production equipment.
These sensors provide manufacturers with actionable insights that help transition toward more transparent, digital, and climate-neutral production environments. By integrating directly into industrial processes, Moldsonics enables 24/7 monitoring and early anomaly detection, which helps reduce scrap rates and improve overall cycle reliability. The company collaborates with industry partners to implement its technology and has received multiple awards for its contributions to advancing manufacturing innovation and successfully transferring scientific research into industrial applications.
