Magnetic platens display actual holding force.


Intelligent Magnetic Clamping (IMAG) is a new system for monitoring the holding force of magnetic platens. Supplied by Staubli Corp., Duncan, S.C., it goes beyond Staubli's previous system, which monitors the magnetic flux generated by selected poles distributed across the platen A long, thin cylinder in a typewriter or printer that guides the paper through it and serves as a backstop for the printing mechanism to bang into. It is typically made of a hard rubber or rubber-like material. See carriage and typewriter. . With IMAG, every magnetic pole magnetic pole, the two nearly opposite ends of the planet where the earth's magnetic intensity is the greatest, as the north and south magnetic poles. For the magnetic north, it is the direction from any point on the earth's surface linking the horizontal component  in the quick-clamping system has its own sensor to measure the flux generated by the magnet and absorbed by the mold. While the previous system displayed the percentage of maximum magnetic flux attained, IMAG shows a predicted percentage of maximum holding force on the hand-held control pendant pendant

The IMAG system has data-logging capability and will shut down the press if any part of the mold moves 0.0001 in. from the magnetic platen. IMAG also provides a checklist of safety procedures for mold changes and will not allow the changeover (programming) changeover - The time when a new system has been tested successfully and replaces the old system.  to proceed until those steps are carried out.
