New SPI committee on magnetic mold clamps. (In Brief: Your Business).

The SPI Machinery, Molders, and Moldmakers Divisions are forming a joint committee to study development of a safety standard for magnetic mold clamps used on injection molding machines. The standard will address safety warning signs, safety requirements, an electrical interface for molding machines, and proper use of magnetic mold clamps. The first committee meeting is planned for April 10 in Columbus, Ohio, and will include molders, moldmakers, machine builders, and magnetic mold-clamp manufacturers.
