Skid MechFlex for the anti-corrosion of negatives
Mold designers now have more options to get make anti-corrosion of negatives with the new MechFlex. Among its main advantages is its compact design in order to use where other systems may not be used. In addition, it provides parallel displacement and maintains the position before the anti-corrosion and expulsion of the piece. It is simple, easy to install and removable machining from the line of partition. It has a cap of positioning to avoid the depression of the sled in the injection process.
The MechFlex range, which ensures a surface finish of the piece without steps, is a complement to the extensive range of solutions of desmolde negative, recently including the expansion of the line Flexicore and the exclusive UniLifter and VersaLifter. MechFlex is available in four variables installation and eight measures, starting with "a unique" 1.8 up to 12 mm thickness.
Dater Locking
Progressive offers a wide range of dater and inserts, to maintain compatibility and interchangeability with the most popular standards of the market. The new Locking series presents the same qualities that the popular S series, but offers more benefits. Thus, the range ensures a precise alignment of the arrow with the number, and is available in high and low relief and more measures than other brands from the competition. In addition, the end user is able to feel that the dater is 'click' on the right place, better than the visual alignment.
Other features:
-Insert stays aligned with outer shell 360º
-Easy adjustment and/or replacement front of the mold
-Made in stainless steel tempered, ideal for resistance to wear and corrosion
-Maximum temperature of 230 ° work
Mechanical eclipsable time DT
The mechanical eclipsable time DT is a system of mechanical colapsable anti-corrosion, which reduces the cycle time and complex approaches to racks and gear. The result: a type of mold without complexity.
The advantages in the installation and maintenance are great due to the characteristic patented quick connector that allows the extraction and the service of the unit of time while the mold is still on the machine. The compact design of the time DT saves space between cavities, so it offers the possibility to use a smaller injection machine or add more cavities. Addition using the mechanism of action of the opening of mold, eliminates the system of expulsion. The result is a more compact mould length, which is an advantage for moulds sandwich or stack and the adaptation of existing molds.
This time is available in four standard measures to coincide with the most common diameters of the industry. It is also possible to manufacture special and custom measures. The finish of the detail of the thread can be also provided to reduce time and cost in the construction of mold.
R & d in standard mould technicians
Innova components and Progressive develop common strategies for the development of standardized and new markets. The Alliance with Progressive gave a definitive to Innova boost in building "a project and an image of unique and constant improvements and innovation". The result is a not inconsiderable amount of patents both in the U.S. and in Europe and other countries.
