Fixes the slide securely in the end position
Slides make it
possible to produce injection mouldings with demanding geometries and complex
undercuts. It must be possible to position them reliably and precisely.
The slides also have to be maintained securely in the end
position when the mould is open. This frequently constitutes a particular
challenge precisely in the case of heavy or vertically operating slides.
The new HASCO slide retainer Z1898/… provides the optimum
solution here. A frictional and positive locking
connection permits secure slide positioning and ensures reliable
locking. Undesired slide movements are thus prevented and damage to the mould
and cavity avoided.
The DLC-coated functional elements form a
particularly low-friction system that gets by without lubrication and is thus
also suitable for use in clean room and medical technology
applications. The good heat resistance of the elements also permits their
application in high-temperature moulds at up to 180°C. Retention forces of
30 to 100 N are guaranteed, depending on the element size.
The compact design and the catch permit optimum use
in the smallest of installation spaces as well as the user-friendly mounting
and removal of the slide retainer from the machine directly from the parting
plane.
