Globeius Inc., the North American distributor for Mouldpro ApS products, has introduced a Power Sliding Clamp, designed to allow for faster mold changes. 

The clamps can accommodate a range of different mold backplate sizes and thicknesses. Four clamp sizes are available including:

  • SC-100 (3,500-lb clamp force)
  • SC-200 (4,400-lb clamp force)
  • SC-250 (5,500-lb clamp force)
  • SC-300 (12,100-lb clamp force)

These clamps can be used in threaded platens or t-slot platens, Globeius says. They are designed to slide by virtue of an integral t-slot, which enables it to be fixed in the optimal position for clamping. An adjustable bolt prepares for different clamp heights. Suitable for Quick Mold Changes (QMC), these clamps feature a nickel-plated finish for optimized corrosion and wear resistance.
