Hasco announces the expansion of its mold plate range to around 2,000 variants of undrilled P-plates and drilled K-plates, promoting standardization as well as increasing the flexibility requirements of modern moldmaking. Hascos says its plates offer an optimal combination of simplicity, precision and availability, achieving cost-effectiveness.
The company’s P- and K-plates are machined on all sides and can be combined for the development and production of injection molding tools. Each plate is created with precision and high surface quality, made from low-stress European quality steel. In addition to a high level of plane parallelism, the mold plates are said to be tailored to modern manufacturing techniques.
In addition to their modular design and their variety, K-standard parts are either designed to the nominal size for direct use or have an allowance for subsequent heat treatment.
Several thousand stress-relieved panels are permanently available from stock.
