FAQs - Early Ejector Return Assemblies

What are the design guidelines and major considerations for Early Ejector Return Assemblies (Item # ER-101)?

1. A minimum of four units per mold are recommended. Two units per mold mounted on the centerline of the mold are a must.
2. Use of guided ejection in the ejector assembly.
3. Use only in a horizontal press.
4. If used in an unbalanced mold, uneven loading could occur. This could cause problems for ER-101 units.
5. Occasional lubrication with a lithium-type grease.
6. Timing is critical: All units to be timed within +/-.005 of one another.
7. No preload of unit.
