Abstract
A manifold for a multiple injection unit injection molding machine that allows the machine to be used when a standard conventional mold is attached to a platen. The manifold includes a first inlet port that is in communication with one nozzle of the machine and a second inlet port that is in communication with another nozzle of the machine. Each inlet port communicates with an inlet passage and the two inlet passages join an exit passageway at a junction. The exit passageway is in communication with an exit port to transfer fluid to a mold cavity. The manifold has a valve located at the junction to control the flow of material through the exit passageway.
