SMARTLOCK® Slide Retainer &
Limit SwitchSMARTFLOW® SMARTLOCK® slide retainer and limit switch is designed for injection molders to provide switching plus slide retaining in one unique package. The SMARTLOCK® locking function prevents premature slide movement during molded part ejection while the SPDT switch is simultaneously actuated. The SMARTLOCK® slide retainer and limit switch has been tested for reliability over 10 million cycles without failure. Two or more switches may be used for larger molds, or molds with multiple slides. Increased safety and prevention of mold damage result when the SMARTLOCK® slide retainer and limit switch is installed in a mold. A capture screw holds the plunger in place.
Mode of Operation Installed in the slide, the plunger moves into a recess in the locking plate of the switch assembly, which is installed in the mold plate. The switch actuator, located in the bottom of the recess, closes the normally open switch contacts when the plunger is seated in the locking plate recess. When the break away force is applied to the slide, the lock is released, and the switch returns to its normal state. Download information in Adobe Acrobat
