KOSMEK QUICK MOLD CHANGE SYSTEMS

HC/HB/HE ADVANTAGES OF AIR CLAMP SYSTEM

•	Power source is general compressed air.
•	The air type clamp system eliminates the possibility of contamination around the clamp due to oil leakage or dripping.
•	Piping work is easy because the circuit consists of air lines.
•	Fire hazard by use/or storage of hydraulic oil is eliminated.
•	Excellent for electric machines, no hydraulic unit is required.
•	Maintenance is easy as there is no oil mess.
•	This system is interchangeable with our hydraulic type clamp(GWA type)as the mounting bolt pitch is identical.
•	Endurance at high temperature is improved because the working pressure of this system is lower than that of the hydraulic type.
•	Overall system costs are less than hydraulic systems.

Basic Structure of H Series

Components for H Series

VERTICAL MOLD CHANGE SYSTEM

Vertical mold change system is a method for changing a mold using a crane over a molding machine and for securely fastening the mold by a powered clamp. T groove type (HC and HE), fixing type(HC) or a clamp can be selected depending on the conditions of the mold and the molding machine.

HORIZONTAL MOLD CHANGE SYSTEM

Horizontal mold change system is a method for changing molds from the operation side or the non operation side using a mold changing carriage or a changing stand. Most suitable construction can be selected based on the frequency of the mold change or the plant layout.

VERTICAL INJECTION MOLDING MACHINE

Air type clean clamp (H Series) is most suitable for vertical injection molding machines. Especially in case of a turn table type machine, the lower molding face always passes under the upper clamp in each shot due to the mechanism of the injection molding machine. At this time, even a slight amount of hydraulic oil dripping from clamps or hydraulic piping results in not only contamination of molds but mass production of defective molded parts. The air type clamp contains no hydraulic oil, thus eliminating the chance of contamination.


•	Check the condition of the molding machine and the molds prior to changing them and suspend them by a crane till completing the changing work. If not suspended by a crane, the mold may drop to cause personal injury.
•	When working on a mold while still in the machine, suspend the mold by crane or fasten it with bolts and turn the machine power supply OFF. Failure to do so may result in mold dropping and then personal injury.
•	When production is completed, close the mold in the machine or remove it from the machine. Failure to do so may result in the mold dropping and then personal injury.
•	Do not remove the mold support block or stop block from the stationary or movable platens. The removal may result in mold dropping and then personal injury. Note) When the fixed side is equipped with a location ring, install the dropping preventive block only on the movable side.
•	When changing a mold, do not enter under the mold nor put a hand or foot under it. The mold may drop to cause personal injury.
•	Only use the specified molds. Failure to do so may result in insufficient locking of a mold, mold dropping and then personal injury.
•	Only operate the system at the specified pressure. Failure to do so may result in mold falling or dropping and then personal injury. Malfunction of the clamp may also result.
