| Feature | Water MTC | Oil MTC |
|--------|-----------|---------|
| Temperature range | RT to 180°C | RT to 350°C |
| Heat transfer | High | Medium |
| Heating/cooling speed | Fast | Slower |
| Operating cost | Low | Higher |
| Maintenance | Low | Higher |

P = (m x c x ΔT) / (860 x t) x η
m = mold mass (kg)
c = specific heat = 0.46 kJ/kg·K
ΔT = temperature rise (°C)
t = heat-up time (h)
η = safety factor = 1.2-1.5
| Mold Type | Mold Weight | Heater Power | Type |
|----------|------------|-------------|------|
| Small injection | <200kg | 6-9kW | Water |
| Medium injection | 200-500kg | 9-12kW | Water |
| Large injection | 500-1000kg | 12-18kW | Water |
| Die casting | Any | 12-36kW | Oil |
| Rubber | Any | 6-18kW | Oil |
