F.I.T.S. This PCS line includes molding components and replacement plates for mold building. The portfolio offers mini hot sprue bushings, components for guided ejection, tubular dowels for precise alignment with support plates — also called ear plates — and pry slots, including return pins. According to PCS, F.I.T.S. inserts are especially suited for prototyping and short-run applications.
What’s new? New additions to the F.I.T.S. line, which PCS has expanded over the years. New units and functions include: dual-function stripper bolts, which serve as stoppers, limiting ejector plate movement to prevent damage and ensure reliable, safe performance; leader pins for stability; a reusable F.I.T.S. U frame; T-style Insert assemblies and replacement plates for the 10/12 and 10/14 series; more A-Plate and B-Plate thickness options for laminated style inserts in the 10/12 and 10/14 series; and sleeve ejector plate sets for the 08/10, 84/90, 10/12 and 10/14 series.
Benefits Flexibility and versatility. Overall, PCS says the F.I.T.S. line offers flexibility and efficiency for quick-turnaround projects.
