April 2005 – Patented, interchangeable wear surfaces on D-M-E Company's new IN2™ INnovative INterlocks reduce maintenance costs for plastic molders and moldmakers alike. Interchangeable inserts eliminate the need to replace the entire side interlock set during maintenance, resulting in significant and ongoing cost savings.
The new IN2â„¢ design features relatively inexpensive wear inserts of graphitic steel that are easily replaced when a mold is maintained. The inserts are held in place with a precision interference-fit design that retains them when the interlocks are installed on the mold.
Also an industry first is the material combination that has been optimized through extensive testing for this application – through-hard graphitic steel against through-hard high speed tool-steel. There are no coatings, which had been shown to peel away under severe testing conditions.
IN2 INnovative INterlocks provide accurate alignment of mold halves, are easily installed and are available in three standard sizes.
