functions of a gate.

Restricted gates are used in multi-cavity moulds where they perform the
following major functions :
1; provide a point between the part and the runner with low mechanical strength,
allowing easy separation.

2; provide a point in the runner system with a large surface-to-volume ratio which
will freeze rapidly when flow stops, sealing the cavity.

3; create a back pressure in the runner system to promote equal filling of all cavities
simultaneously.
