Any clamping system that applies tonnage at the platen corners must contend with deflection. It’s how you manage it that matters the most.
The HPM FREEDOM Series platen design manages those clamping forces by allowing the platen to absorb them under tight control, while the mold mounting surface exhibits zero deflection, remaining absolutely square. This proprietary design is used on both the stationary and the moving platens to eliminate flash and reduce mold wear. Our unique patented platen carriage provides parallel platen alignment. When combined with HPM’s FREEDOM Series platen feature, you’re assured of superior molding and longer mold life. |
