On a few occasions we used a fork truck to set molds but I think it is much more dangerous and increases the chance for Mold/Molder/Set-up Tech damage, I was never comfortable watching Molds swaying like wind chimes... Overhead cranes are much safer.
Marke crane is the way to go. I’ve had to set a few molds with a forklift and not only is it harder to align the mold with the locking ring, but it also leaves you very little room to work. It’s just a dangerous technique altogether. Luckily we have cranes but sometimes people are stupid and end up breaking them
@@yaboyreege7158 I'm well aware you torque the bolts to 85 pds. Atleast in my shop. My comment was because of the one guy calling a breaker bar a "tube on a ratchet"
The safety violations in this video would get anyone fired at my plant. ..
I guess as long as the mold closes and locks up, the mold protections are all set.
This is the PERFECT example of how NOT to set a mold.
100 % agree. This makes me appreciate my company a lot more. We have proper hoists and far more efficient procedures. I change 4-6 molds per day.

So what can you use instead of the fork truck to set the mold? considering mold's weight?

That Mould should not be able to open while the door is open -- the safetys have been disabled
The dude doesn't even know what a Thermolator does. "Heats the material red hot"? That's not the thermolator brother.
How about when a mold hose would blow? kill the water to the manifolds, stop molder and get to the thermolators shut down before someone get burned!
Yea seriously lol the thermometers cool down water to the mold, they don’t heat the material lol
Thermolators heat or cool the water to a set temp. All our lines were chilled water unless it needed to be hot.
Better take this video down before OSHA sees it
I set 5-8 molds like this in a 12 hour shift, hate working under a load but work is scarce in Utah and OSHA doesn't really exist here
Senza parole
Super old mold and machine
wait, is he putting clamps on the sides? its top and bottom.
Using a fork truck to install a mould is a sign of a crap company the guys using a tube on a ratchet which always makes me want to smack the person
tanveer khan don’t be such a bitch
It's being a bitch which keeps workers safe
A tube on a ratchet..? A breaker bar... why wouldn't he
Greg G you’re supposed to torque the clamp bolts down with an actual torque ratchet. Not use a breaker bar and guess how tight they are

by the way the small clap it facing the wrong way it case if,the molds falls at least the clamps will stay in put
Man, ur using to much torque on theese bolts, youre only damage the threads! No need of leverage there!
Danger
good video and for the folk the give bad comments you must not know what your doing or you would not watch the video
No, no need to torque the bolt like that!
Been doin like this for 35 years....my factory is in great progress......NOT......
Tgough, like theese zip ties. No ware on the cooling lines, at least rhats good.
Where’s the torque wrench?lol
Right, we were required to Torque the Mold Platen bolts too!
He would rather stress the threads.
Where is his safety glasses not wearing any ppe at all
So, actually how much time that he need to do Change Over Mold?
terlalu ribet beresiko, masa set up moulding pakai alat bantu forklift,,, ga efektif Bos
This is easy job for me
Sir ye compan kaha hai
What's the average time it takes to do a mold change
on this with easy water , bout 45 min if the platen holes are not messed up and u don't have to hunt for clamps
This small of a mold 30 minutes.
As I’ve had a few bosses of mine say ever mold change should be 9 mins or less. 🤣😂
Where is his safety glasses at, and don't use a pipe on a ratchet, plus we aren't allowed to dress like that at work.
Hell no. Cintas had our money. It was mandatory to wear a uni.. And better than havin my wife jack up our washer.
