Plate Control

Component Options for Plate Sequence Control

Overview

Progressive offers a variety of component options for molds with multiple moving plates.

The most recent addition to our plate sequencing product line is the Ejector Accelerator. Designed to be compact but provide robust strength, the Ejector Accelerator creates a second-stage ejection at critical points in a mold with only a single set of ejector plates to knock parts from lifter heads or bump parts off undercuts.
