Contending that it carries the world’s widest range of mold counting and monitoring products, Progressive Components (Wauconda, Illinois) has recently expanded the line to include CounterViews, along with new accessories.
As an industry exclusive, the CounterView cycle counter is now available in both left- and right-hand orientations to allow mounting on either mold half, enabling easy viewing while the mold is in the press.
Progressive has also added a High Temp CounterView, which offers the same functionality as the standard cycle counter with the added benefit of performing in higher temperature tools operating at a maximum of 375°F (190°C).
For added heat protection, Progressive has introduced the Retrofit Bracket, which insulates its CVe Monitor or CounterView in high-heat applications. With a maximum operating temperature of 410°F (210°C), the bracket installs within an existing pocket without modification to the mold's cavity or core half.
CAD geometry for Progressive’s line of cycle counting products is available from the company’s CADalog, a free parts library with downloads offered in multiple formats including SolidWorks, NX, VISI, STEP, Parasolid, ACIS and IGES.
