THE BEST SOLUTION FOR QUICK MOLD & DIE CHANGE

MBS

ELECTRO-PERMANENT MAGNETIC QUICK DIE CLAMPING SYSTEM FOR STAMPING PRESSES

» FAST

» EASY TO USE

» SAFE

» FLEXIBLE

Uniform Clamping with Up to 12T/SQ Ft of Force

The MBS technology is not affected by electrical breakdowns; the die will stay in position even without power supply with the same strength indefinitely. This uniform clamping force allows repeatability and constant quality of the stamping process by eliminating any flexing of die shoe.

Parallel Clamping TOO!

MBS does not magnetize the entire die; the magnetic flux penetrates the die only 20mm
deep. The die face and part cannot become magnetized, allowing for scrap removal and
proper die operation without interference. In a few seconds with the simple press of a
button, it is possible to clamp or unclamp the die in complete safety. Even during a
power failure, the system remains operative with constant clamping force.

 Force reading technology makes clamping dies on parallels safe and easy

No Die Modifications

MBS is suitable for die plates, die shoes, QDC plates, or parallels of any size with no modifications.
Die standardization is not required resulting in savings in engineering time and overall cost.

Flexible

Locating devices are easy to add, scrap holes can be used, and bolster extensions can be added.
Dies on parallels can be held with the special parallel pole design. T-slots in the lower can be
added to enable a wide variety of die lifter configurations, and entire bolsters can be replaced.

User Friendly

One operator with no tools can safely clamp a die with an exact known force in seconds, time and time again.

Completely Customizable

» Reference pins with hardened bushings can be added to speed up die locating

» Lower magnet can be equipped with scrap hole

» Entire bolster can be replaced to save shut height on smaller presses

» T-slots can be added to facilitate die lifter installation

» Magnet thickness standard 47mm with special thickness range of 35-228mm upon special request

“Safety First” System

» Electro-permanent system does not lose holding force if a loss of power occurs.

» Prox Switch interlock

» BDC interlock

» Die set mode interlock

» Press enable interlock

» CSS ground fault circuit test protocol,

» Force reading interlock all work together to insure safe operation.

NEW! Force Reading Controller

Force reading system measures the real force accurately and allows die identification for up to 10,000 separate dies.
