THERMONOM 2G – The Most Flexible Hot-Runner Controller

With the THERMONOM 2G, we offer you an innovative solution for the precise control of hot runners.

The THERMONOM 2G is available in various models designed specifically for different numbers of channels:
Base model: For applications with 6 or 12 channels | Mid-range models: For 18 or 24, 30 or 36, and 42 or 48 channels | Largest model: 54 or 60 channels

Regardless of the number of channels, you’ll receive a compact and powerful device that guarantees the highest precision and reliability.

Compact, powerful and ready to go right away!

Flexibly scalable, No compromises!

Flexible, modular, and perfectly tailored to your needs

Do you need more than 60 channels? No problem! Thanks to the Coupling Function Multiple THERMONOMES can be connected together to form a single control unit. This allows for up to 192 channels — ideal for large and complex applications.

All versions of the THERMONOM are fully compatible with one another, regardless of size or generation. You can even seamlessly integrate the first-generation THERMONOM with the new THERMONOM 2G
This makes integration into existing systems simple and cost-effective.

Easy maintenance in a snap

Thanks to the independently replaceable control electronics modules, maintenance and repair are a breeze.
Simply unplug the old module and plug in the new one—quick and easy.

The 6-channel module is available as a replacement part for easy replacement.

  • Quick Maintenance & Minimized Downtime
    If a defect occurs and a replacement is necessary, the controller electronics can be easily removed and replaced—without time-consuming repairs or long downtimes.

  • Easy to use with no special knowledgerequired
    Replacing the controller electronics requires no complicated procedures or special tools. This saves time and money during operation.

  • Durability & Sustainability
    Instead of disposing of entire units, individual modules can be selectively replaced or repaired. This conserves resources and reduces maintenance costs.

*The triac and fuse are installed directly on the module as individual replacement parts and can be replaced quickly and easily as needed.
