MoldTrax MTWEB, the newest version of Amerimold 2021 exhibitor MoldTrax’s documentation tracking system, is said to be the only mold maintenance program created specifically for efficient tracking of the performance, maintenance efficiency and repair costs of injection, rubber, blow and die cast, stamping, cutting and forming dies. The system also enables users to standardize their terms throughout the system for easier, more accurate data entry for use in reports for mold performance and maintenance efficiency calculations.
In addition to allowing visibility in multiple locations and in five languages via the corporate version, MoldTrax MTWEB system has several new features:
- Users can automatically convert raw data into clear and concise pie charts and graphs for easier recognition of high-cost or high-frequency issues by simply entering a date range.
- A “cycle count” field can be populated manually or electronically for “live” updates from a shop’s ERP.
- A PM “Alert” report shows approaching PM cycle points (green, yellow or red).
- An expanded Hot Runner section includes more fields for maintaining manifolds and related components.
- A Mold Performance report presents maintenance and repair costs (tooling and labor) by cycles, defects and run hours.
- A “Link” field in the Tooling Inventory section rapidly connects to the component supplier page for easy ordering.
- A “Check-Sheet” enables users to list components of a mold or part that require periodic inspection.
- A “Tool Risk and Condition Indicator” (TRACI) calculation based on age of mold, total cycles, steel type, resin type and molders location is possible.
Overall, according to MoldTrax, the system allows molders and repair shops to move to a proactive maintenance 4.0 culture and away from costly firefighting practices by using data to create mold and maintenance goals. Specific targeting of high-frequency issues also helps slow or stop production.
