EXCELLENT TWO-PLATEN TECHNOLOGY THE POWERFUL GUIDEX AND GEARX TEAM ENSURES FAST LOCKING AND EXCELLENT PART QUALITY The hydromechanical two-platen clamping unit in the GX machine sets new standards in terms of quality and productivity. With the ingenious GuideX guide shoe, forces are ideally absorbed and the service life of the molds is increased. The innovative GearX locking device functions immediately and reliably. their precise ease of movement. The movements are optimal in terms of energy usage and the sensitive mold area protection can achieve its full effect. Fast locking thanks to GearX...

Together with GearX and GuideX, the hydromechanical two-platen clamping unit ensures maximum part quality and productivity. Clamping force - quick and energy-efficient with the "BluePower“ optimized clamping block The clamping force is built up through four pressure pads behind the permanent mold fixing platen. The refined contact surfaces and seals in the pressure pads are specially designed for high permanent operation as a result of their material pairing. One of the impressive features of the new energy-efficient clamping block is its speed in building up and reducing clamping force. Stable,...

EXCELLENT TWO-PLATEN TECHNOLOGY FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF GUIDEX AND GEARX Open clamping unit Thanks to the intelligent GuideX guide shoe, absolute platen parallelism is attained even with extremely heavy molds. Clamping movement In conjunction with the linear guides, GuideX produces almost friction-less mold movements. The roller guide impresses through its precision and ease of movement. Locking Thanks to GearX, the machine is locked quickly and reliably. When they interact with one another, the new GuideX and GearX technologies produce an extremely energy-efficient clamping principle, precise...

The GearX and GuideX product innovations ensure fast locking and high part quality with minimum energy consumption.
