Description
APSX-PIM Standard Aluminum Mold Specification & Ordering
- Mold Description:
- Material: 6061 Aluminum
- Manufacturing: CNC Machined (Spyder CNC)
- Dimensions: 4.8″ (W) x 6.0″ (H) x 2.0″ (D)
- Status: Supplied with alignment pins, bushings, mounting bolts, and claws pre-installed.
- Requirement: Cavities require customer machining.
- Mounting Hardware:
- Left Side: Four (4) shoulder bolts (included).
- Right Side: Claws (included).
- Note: Multiple mold orders receive only one set of claws.
- Installation & Alignment:
- Orientation: Mount the mold so its upper side is flush with Block 4’s upper side.
- Shoulder Bolt Purpose: Intentionally longer to create a small gap between the mold and nozzle plate when unclamped.
- Cooling Benefit: This gap minimizes heat transfer, keeping the mold cooler. Full contact with the nozzle plate only occurs when fully clamped.
- Alignment Check Procedure:
- Install the mold using the shoulder bolts (left) and claws (right).
- Use the machine’s manual control buttons to initiate clamping.
- HALT the machine as soon as the mold halves begin to mate.
- Pin/Bushing Note: Pins and bushings are a tight fit. Do not press by hand; rely on the machine’s clamping force for final seating.
- Additional Features:
- Temperature Sensor Port: Thread size M3 (located on the mold side).
