EZ-Stack DME designed this ball-screw centering device for use in stack molds. It can be custom-made to users’ applications.
What’s new? The EZ-Stack, which DME says is an industry first.
Benefits More reliable plate control, even on the largest of tools. The EZ-Stack provides precise movement and reduces friction, allowing the smooth opening and closing of stack molds. The easy-to-install, modular device fulfills the need for speed and reliability. It’s also robust, with all moving parts contained within the bellows, protecting plastic parts from contamination and making the device appropriate for clean-room use. Maintenance on the EZ-Stack is simple and can be done without wrenches.
