    The holes on the side of the platen there are a perfect mounting point for your bracket and it'll raise the lines a bit and allow better drape past the tie bar.

    Do you use blue tinted water to help spot dead heading or is that a treatment for your in house systems?

      It's ethylene glycol. The ethylene glycol prevents rust from forming inside the mold cooling piping and helps to keep the mold at a steady temperature during manufacturing use.

    Gibt es da noch keine Schnellverschlüsse?

    Bruh thats to much hassle for adapting a cooling system!
    You should ask for a few quick coupling systems with pneumatic purge to optimize your work and aim to have a SMED system in place.
    Tell your boss to not be a greedy AH.

      Bruh, you judged something based on one video, what if this machine will run only this mold till the end of times or at least a few months? Who needs smed when you don't change tools everyday? Besides if the boss was greedy he wouldn't have bought an Engel.
      Tho, I don't like how he put PVC pipes in the machine and unnecessarily at that, just a brass L piece would suffice.

      I just commented based on my day to day exprience.
      Even if you run that mold only on that specific machine you need SMED if your company compels yo to keep an OEE =>90%. and to achieve that level of OEE every second counts.
      I work for a T1 (automotive industry) and all that Lean stuff an methodologies are highly enforced.

      ​@@FlopparaptorPro Bruh, everything is a big if. I've worked in both, started my career as an setter in a big company with over 350 molds and 20 tool changes a day, we didn't chased every second, but thanks to great standardisation we changed tools in 15 - 30 minutes with great oee. Now I moved to a smaller company with maybe 50 tools (many of which are twins) an we make packaging in huge quantities, over half of the machines never had a tool change (other than twin tool) an we make maybe 1 tool change a week, why would my boss invest tens if hundreds thousand euro in standardisation to save almost nothing? Yea it would be awesome to have magnetic platens or pneumatic ejector couplings like i had in previous job, but I'd rather look once a month for a bolt or special hydraulic coupling that fits on that tool rather than work in continuous grind like i did in my first job.

      SMED is good in specific cases, but if you have 300h or 500h or 5000h production runs it doesnt make that much difference.. The most time consuming part of the tool change is cleaning hoppers and granulators and material change in machine when you have to go from 200°C to 300°C or from 380°C to 180°C..

      I wouldnt make all that work for a cold water system and in the process loosing flow control in different circuits. I prefer manifolds for hot water only. Machine standard should be at least 90°C water capacity.
