The centering surface on the cylindrical head permits a secure, clear mounting position in the mold. The ejector pins enable precise centering of individu- ally contoured ejector or core pins. The company says that with a suitable design for the counterbore, the head geometry can also fulfill the function of a standard DIN ejector pin if that is necessary. Hasco says that the simple mounting geometry of the ejector pins enable perfect repeat accuracy of their installation, offering a precise and positive fit. They thus ensure clear-cut positioning. The surface area of the ejector head can be used in full, guaranteeing maximum stability. Hasco supplies the new ejector pins in hardened, hot-working steel. The pins can be further processed to suit individual requirements, including through additional heat treatment such as nitriding or from an additional coating. All sizes are available from stock.

Advancements also include a tablet feature that enables presses to be assigned to a tablet, providing machine operators a portable and simpli- fied interface to enter rejects and downtime codes. Additionally, CVe Live now has an exceptions dashboard for manufacturing cells, which shows content that is intended to be displayed on a large TV or monitor and keeps track of any exceptions that occur on the machines that are assigned to the dashboard. The data transfer option provides for any data that CVe Live collects to be manually or automatically output to an Excel or JSON file, simplifying the transfer of data to existing systems. AST Technology, a subsidiary of Progressive Components, develops and supports CVe Live. AST Technology designed the product to integrate with a company's existing systems. CVe Live is configurable to automatically export any of the data collected or information that is entered by users.
