MOD/WOD wedge clamp

Mold clamping system

MOD/WOD wedge clamp

Mold clamping system

Discover our best-in-class clamping products: safe, durable and cost-effective. The MOD/WOD cylinders are self-locking thanks to the 5° angle at the plunger end and do not require constant pressure to stay locked.

MOD WEDGE CLAMP SYSTEM

These hydraulic clamps are specially designed for machines with the EUROMAP drilling pattern. The MOD series is equipped with metric mounting patterns and BSP oil fittings.

For fast and efficient tool changes, the MOD double acting hydraulic die clamp series can be fully integrated with machine controls. The clamp is released hydraulically and can be positioned very precisely by means of proximity sensors. In order to use these single acting hydraulic die clamps, the back plate on the tool side of the machine must be standardized. Centering rings are not necessary.

Key Features

  • self-locking, double-acting hydraulic clamp;
  • for machines with EUROMAP drilling pattern;
  • equipped with inductive sensors indicating the clamped and unclamped position;
  • thousands of cylinders installed;
  • large variety of tension available;

The WOD series is the MOD equivalent for the US market.

MOD WEDGE CLAMP SYSTEM

The WOD series of English units of measurement is specially designed for American SPI standardized machines. These hydraulic clamping systems also have self-locking plungers, with mounting patterns with imperial units of measure and SAE oil connections.

Usage

These self-locking double acting hydraulic clamps are installed on thousands of injection molding machines, blow molding machines, mold holders and die cutting machines.

The cylinders are self-locking due to the 5 degree angle at the plunger end and require no pressure to stay locked.

The MOD system can be clamped to flat back plates and can be equipped with two inductive sensors that indicate the clamped and unclamped position.
