Select the nozzle
According to your machine nozzle, select the type of flange you will use to connect the mould.
For a conical nozzle, it is a flat 6mm flange with a bevel to recieve the nozzle. With slots to stay aligned with the screw heads. It is not fixed to the mold, only pressed with the jack between the mold and the nozzle.
For a screw nozzle, you have to weld the pipe connector to the flange and fix the flange to the mold with the closing screws.
Feel free to addapt the design to your needs or propose a better solution :)

If you choosed to make the mold with logos, add the engraved sheet to the mould.
This example is a metal sheet engraved by acid metal etching. A process commonly used in the printing industry.
Cut and file the sheet to it's final size and embed it inside the hole.
