The Quick Die Change System caters for a variety of different Die Lifters which allow for simple and quick movement of dies on a press bed. Forwell supplies two different types of Die Lifters according to the press tonnage, die weight and the die positioning accuracy required. There is a choice between a Spring-Loaded Die Lifter, better suited for light to medium duty pressing operations and a Hydraulic Die Lifter more often used for medium to heavy duty pressing.

• Quick and easy die changing
• Very high clamping pressure
• High opening and closing speeds
• Easy insertion and removal
• Safer Operations
• Increased productivity

Die Clamp Introduction

All Forwell Quick Mold Change Systems use high quality Die Clamps for very secure clamping, quick mold changing and safer operations. These clamps can fasten Molds whether they are changed vertically or horizontally.

There are also a range of different Die Clamps available to suit your injection molding or mold casting requirements. The TY type Die Clamps are machined to fit into the T-slot of the bolster for extra secure positioning. The flange-mount model Die Clamps can be bolted onto the bolster and the automatic slider model Die Clamps makes remote automatic operation possible.

Bolster extensions or Die Arms make it very easy and simple to pull out or push a die in. It also allows for a forklift or crane to remove and load dies easily. Die stoppers at the end of each Die Arm will prevent the die from rolling off but at the same time provide easy die loading onto the bolster extensions.

The Die Arms are equipped with hardened rollers to allow for a long service life and accurate die loading. The Die Arms can be selected according to carrying capacity, and are available in three different types: RC detachable type, RD drop-down type and RE/RF folding type.

• Very secure and stable clamping
• Pressure can easily be adjusted using an air pressure adjusting valve. Should air pressure become dangerously high, the air pressure will automatically shut off
• Prolonged hydraulic air pressure allows for energy efficient and convenient automated operations
• Hydraulic air pump ensures die clamping even during power cuts or when system pressure drops

• Simplifies Operations
• Easy to use
• Multi Language Interface
• Many automatic functions
• Easy status monitoring

Control Panel Introduction

The easy to use control panel offers a simple interface to monitor and control operations of the Quick Mold Change System. The upper half of the screen displays automatic functions while the lower half can be used for operator-controlled functions. This makes this machine easy to control yet still have the functionality needed of a Quick Mold Change System.
