PFA Inc.’s Hydraulic Locking Cylinders are now available with low profile PNP style sensors designed to integrate with Switchmax mold connectivity solution. Connects can be orientated in any direction and moved to multiple sensor locations on the product. Combining integration and low profile sensors enables preload adjustments and more effective core positioning for perfect parts. Small PNP sensors provide tighter mold mounting, closer integration of core water lines and integration with other sensors for a single set and pull output for connection to the press via an integrated junction box. Side sensors on mold cylinders can be adapted with a field wireable connector for connection to the junction box that also provides LED indication for sensors, the company says.
