Well-suited for large automotive, stack, three-plate and stripper- plate molds, the bar locks are available in 4 stan- dard widths and lengths ranging to 16". According to the company, bar locks allow alignment to take place before tall cores engage at mold close, unlike leader pins, which do not provide the same precision to accurately align the mold halves and prevent damage to cores and shutoffs. Z-Series bar locks are said to provide long-term precision registration of plates and, for durability and wear resistance, feature propri- etary treatment, engagement ramp geometry and particle rings on the guiding surfaces. Progressive Components / 847-487-1000 / procomps.com Low-Profle, High-Temp Sensors Available for Side-Action Systems PFA Inc. has added low-profile proxim- ity (solid-state) and high-temperature (single-pole, double-throw) sensor options for its Kor-Lok side-action sys- tems, enabling cores to be preloaded on molds operating near 400°F (205°C) with confirmation of core locking and pull position. Kor-Lok side-action systems (also referred to as core pull systems or locking cylinders) are configurable components used for complex injection molding applications. By expanding the sensor offering, locking cylinder viability can be extended to higher temperatures and more demanding applications, the company says. PFA also has added online 3D CAD configuration and installation videos to coincide with the release of the new sensors.
