Screw Run

Screw run is the portion of the molding cycle 
during which the machine begins to rotate the 
screw to build the next shot; it beings when 
recovery begins and ends when recovery ends 
(the next shot has been built).

5. 

Mold Closed/Clamped

The mold closed/clamped signal indicates when 
the mold is closed during a cycle. If the signal is 
on only when the mold is clamped, assign it as 
“mold closed/clamped”.  If the signal is on when 
the mold is closing, assign it as “mold closing”. 

6. 

Mold Opening

The mold opening signal indicates when the 
mold is opening during a cycle. If the signal is 
on when the mold is opening, assign it as “mold 
opening”.

7. 

Manual

The “manual” signal is assigned to indicate the 
machine’s current operational mode—machine 
in manual (mode). The signal must be on only 
when the machine is in manual mode, and must 
turn off when it is in auto or semi‑auto mode. 
This enables the operator to verify that the 
other sequence signals are correctly wired and 
assigned by cycling the different functions while 
in manual mode to verify that the corresponding 
sequence  signal  module  light  is  activated.                                                                                                                        

8. 

Shuttle Position

The shuttle position signal (for use with shuttle 
molding tables only) indicates to the 

eDART

 in 

which position the table is currently—Shuttle 
Position A, B, C, etc.
