MGE C - plate mag c lamp

Dramatic shortening of set up time for ejector plate！

！
It can instantly detach or attach the die ejector plate by magnetizing the machine ejector plate. Mounting and
dismounting a ejector cylinder, rod and plate is not required and it shortens the set up time considerably.

In case of manual tightening connection rod …

①Ejector rod is screwed on plate, ②Die is fixed on platen and ③Ejector rod is mounted
on cylinder from the back side in a conventional method. It wastes time to change a die.

Displacement detection system（standard） PAT.

Displacement or lifting of die can be detected by the electromagnetic coils built into the magnet core near the center
of clamp plates.（When the ejector plate moves, these electromagnetic coils detect an induction current signal.）
