Application

When does a mold rack make sense?

When your plant stores injection molds, dies or tooling that are changed often and handled with a crane.

Access from aboveThe tray comes out and the crane picks up the mold without maneuvering.
SafetyStops and latches that keep a tray from opening on its own.
OrderEach mold in an identified location.
Faster changeoversLess time searching for and moving tooling.
How it works

How it works

01

The tray extends on its rails until it reaches the stop.

02

The crane or hoist picks up the mold from above.

03

The tray returns to its place and locks with its latch.

Frequently asked questions

How are molds loaded?

With an overhead crane, hoist or forklift, depending on the design.

How much weight does each tray support?

It is designed for the molds you share with us, with its structural calculations.

Can a tray open on its own?

No. Each tray has a locking latch.

How many molds fit per level?

It depends on their dimensions. We define it in the design.
