Premium steel for large molds
Stavax Supreme is a premium tool steel developed for larger plastic molds that demand high corrosion resistance, and where the requirements for surface finish are extra high. Stavax Supreme is a Pressure Electro-Slag Remelted (PESR) tool steel, a very pure material with a minimum of inclusions. Purity is a requirement to be able to achieve the desired surface finish; it also contributes to better toughness. Compared to AISI 420, Stavax Supreme delivers superior hardenability, corrosion resistance, polishability and wear resistance.

D-M-E VectorForm Lifter Systems
New D-M-E VectorForm lifter systems — a Takao Injection Mold Engineering innovation — take lifter systems to the next level. Capable of 30 and greater angles, VectorForm enables half the stroke for the same undercut. VectorForm lifters can be ganged to lift a large lifter core, although a single system can lift multiple lifter cores.

Pneumatic slide gate
Lorenz Series E slide gates offer a positive blade lock between blade and cylinder rod, coupled with a lightweight aluminum body. The pneumatic-actuated slide gates are suitable for vacuum or low pressure conveying systems. Series E gates are available with tube and pipe stubs for compression couplings, or with a stud bolt flanged tube connection for light duty applications. Other standard features include internal magnetic piston and cushioned air cylinder.

Salina Vortex 2-way and 3-way Flex Tube Diverter
The Salina Vortex Flex Tube Diverter is ideal for medium to low abrasive products such as plastic pellets and resins. The valve is bi-directional and offers a positive material and air seal when handling dry materials in vacuum or pressure conveying systems. Cross contamination of materials is eliminated as the sliding port design literally shifts the conveying line from one port to the other. Salina Vortex applies their valves base on 25 years of proven application experience.
