Claim:
A coinjection nozzle for delivering molding material to a mold gate, the coinjection nozzle comprising: a first material melt passage for receiving a first material melt stream from a first material melt source, a second material melt passage for receiving a second material melt stream from a second material source, and an outer layer melt passage fluidly connected to the first material melt passage via a lateral tunnel channel, whereby a portion of the first material melt stream received by the first material melt passage is directed to the outer layer melt passage via the lateral tunnel channel, and wherein the tunnel channel crosses the second material melt stream, and wherein the first material melt stream from the first material melt passage, the second material melt stream from the second material melt passage, and the first material melt stream from the outer layer melt passage combine prior to entering a mold gate.
