Hasco now offers the round locating unit Z083 for the precise, offset-free centering of injection molding tools and mold inserts. The unit also locks to prevent transversal forces in the mold.
The one-sided DLC-coated locating unit is mounted in the mold via the center axis in order to compensate for differing heat expansion in the two mold halves. Hasco says it can also be screwed on either from the mold parting surface or from the back and is easy to carry out through the circular geometry. A two-sided thread in the fixing bore holes simplifies dismantling for maintenance.
Offered over a range of dimensions (10-42 mm), a uniform clearance of 0.002-0.012 mm is ensured across all sizes.
