BRIGHTSENSE: SMART WAY OF FLOW MONITORING Digitalize & Manage What We Do? ✓ Digital monitoring ✓ Exact readings ➢ MEASURE ✓ Flow ✓ Pressure ✓ Temperature ✓ Simple overwiew ✓ Increase productivity ✓ Reduce cycle Time ➢ IMPROVE ✓ Reduce scrap ✓ Quicker mould changes ✓ Energy savings ✓ Alarm output ✓ Data logging ➢ PROCESS ✓ History tracking ✓ Industry 4.0 ready ✓ Full documentation Digital Revolution for Mold Temperature Management 2

BRIGHTSENSE: SMART WAY OF FLOW MONITORING Digitalize & Manage What is Brightsense? Temperature Flow Pressure • The Brightsense system uses a very compact Sensor that is capable of reading both Flow and Temperature. Mold Output • The sensor works on the vortex principle. • The sensors are integrated directly in Mold Input the aluminium manifold, and can easily be exchanged.

BRIGHTSENSE: SMART WAY OF FLOW MONITORING Digitalize & Manage Why Brightsense??? Laminar flow??? Turbulent flow monitoring??? ✓ To get the best heat removal from the mould the coolant should have turbulent flow ✓ This then gives the shortest moulding cycle time. 𝑤 flow rate 𝑤×𝑚 Re = 𝑚 channel diamater 𝜘 𝜘 kinematic viscosity Digital Revolution for Mold Temperature Management 5

BRIGHTSENSE: SMART WAY OF FLOW MONITORING Digitalize & Manage Why Brightsense??? Scale is a mineral build up on the walls of the cooling channels 90 80 • Reduced channel daimater, lower heat % Additional Energy Required transfer capasity! 70 • Scale Build Ups are Worse in Systems 60 Over 50 ° C 50 3mm of scale more energy ! 40 requires up to 38% 30 20 10 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Thickness (mm) Digital Revolution for Mold Temperature Management 6
