Revolutionizing Injection Molding: OM Galaxy's New Patented Manifold

The Patent Office, Government of India, has awarded Patent No. 590105 to OM Galaxy Limited, a leader in high-precision mold manufacturing and engineering, for its "Split-Type Hot Runner Manifold for Plastic Injection Molds." This technological advancement is poised to establish new productivity standards within the international plastics and injection molding sectors.

Through its specialized subsidiary, Infuse HRS Pvt. Ltd., OM Galaxy sought to resolve persistent operational challenges inherent in conventional hot runner manifold systems. Standard manifolds used for polymers such as UPVC often experience material buildup and degradation, leading to significant maintenance requirements and extended production stoppages. To address the demand for a more efficient, maintenance-friendly solution, OM Galaxy Limited developed this split-type manifold system, designed to streamline serviceability while maintaining high performance levels.

Issued on May 22, 2026, the patent serves as a strong endorsement of local engineering prowess aligned with the "Make in India" initiative. Engineered to tackle intricate manufacturing hurdles, the Split-Type Hot Runner Manifold marks a major evolution in system design. It effectively cuts cleaning time for PVC / CPVC manifolds by 90% following extended production runs. Furthermore, the manifold is capable of venting gases that typically contaminate PVC / CPVC materials.

Central to this development is the EZ-CLEAN SYSTEM, which is engineered to substantially boost maintenance and cleaning efficiency. In contrast to traditional setups that frequently necessitate drilling, intricate disassembly, or heavy maintenance, this manifold allows operators to clear solidified resin with minimal effort. This approach drastically cuts down on maintenance labor and machine downtime, facilitating quicker turnarounds during production shifts.

With industries placing a greater premium on productivity, minimized downtime, and sustainable manufacturing, advancements like the Split-Type Hot Runner Manifold System mark a vital progression in enhancing molding efficiency and process reliability. This technology reinforces OM Galaxy’s standing as an innovation-driven engineering firm dedicated to advancing the future of precision tooling and plastics production.
