INSTALLATION
Sensors may be placed in the clamp plate
behind transfer pins, or in the ejector plate
behind ejector pins. Installation location—in the
clamp plate or ejector plate—depends upon
mold real estate and customer preference.
Transfer pins protect the sensor from damaging
shock loads that are applied when the ejector
plate moves forward and backward; the sensor’s
cable is also protected from pinching since
it is not necessary to disassemble the clamp
and backing plates during normal usage or
preventative maintenance.
Ejector pins provide a simple, straightforward
method of installation in which sensors may be
installed; ejector pin installation requires less
machining and less equipment to achieve.
