Cycle counters Hasco's new mechanical mold cycle counters are used to track the number of mold strokes during injection molding. The A5731 cycle counter is designed for use in the moving half of the mold; the A5732 model is used in the fixed half. Each device has a seven-digit mechanical counting mechanism that cannot be reset. They can be used in ambient temperatures up to 248 degrees Fahrenheit and are offered in six lengths and a variety of mounting options.
What's new? The cycle counters, which join several other models in Hasco's product lineup.
Benefits Simple monitoring of mold cycles to support mold-maintenance programs. Also, the compact devices are easy to mount, are maintenance-free and do not require a power supply.
