Mold handling

Whether you opt for a rail guided wagon or a freely movable solution like our battery driven carts or an air floating mold change car, every situation can be met with a customized solution.

Depending on the size of the molds, mold transfer methods range from manual to fully automated. Using our mold transfer systems, you molds are positioned with speed and precision. Even more flexibility is obtained when using mobile mold change carts.

EAS MOLD CHANGE CAR

A semi or fully automated system offers higher machine availability, increased operator security and lower production costs.

EAS mold change tables and cars are:

  • Safe
  • Durable
  • Service-friendly
  • modular
  • Straightforward installation

Instead of using different mold change tables for each machine, fully integrated mold change transportation systems can serve multiple machines on different locations of your facility. Free moving cars give maximum flexibility, especially when battery driven.

Maximize flexibility and productivity

For instance this freemoving mold change car, on its way to storage the mold after changeover at the injection molding machine.
This is a multi-wheeled mold change car with one-sided pushpull, remotely controlled for a maximum load of 50 Ton.

For maximum freedom of movement with heavy molds, we offer the strength of the air cushioned floating cart.

The right time to change is now

Mold change systems are used more and more in the plastic injection molding and related industries to greatly speed up the mold changeover process.
Imagine how much time is saved when the next mold is instantly available during changeovers. This exactly is the biggest advantage of a double mold change table. Valuable space is saved by holding two molds.
EAS’ mold change tables and cars are part of the industry’s most complete range of time and money saving Quick Mold Change (QMC) solutions – reducing the time it takes to change molds from hours or even days to virtually minutes. And they are yet another excellent case-in-point of how to achieve significant improvements in overall performance by replacing traditional mold change methods which no longer meet today’s business climate.

Single Minute Exchange of Die (SMED)

Single Minute Exchange of Die (SMED) is one of the many lean production methods for reducing waste in a manufacturing process. It provides a rapid and efficient way of converting a manufacturing process from running the current product to running the next
product. This rapid changeover is key to reducing production lot sizes and thereby improving flow. Using our mold transfer systems ensures safer set-ups, eliminates confusion and improves overall working conditions. Combining years of expertise with the drive to help you streamline your production, we offer you the most efficient mold changing system.

On this small car you can find : a manual safety latch, conveyor rails, deep space for forklifting and a foot brake. All installed to make operator handling easy and safe. In the beginning of 2016, EAS commissioned a project with this 10T mold change car on rails, combined with MOD2010 cylinders, an ejector coupler inside the movable side of the machine and a multicoupler solution fitted on the mold.
