Mould Latches

Vardhman Dies & Mould Tools manufacturing and exporting high quality Mould Latches worldwide.

We at Vardhman Dies and Mould Tools, have a huge range of standard Mould Latch Locks in ready stock with the Best quality/Grade Stainless Steel, Mould Latch Locks are used to control and float plates during the mould opening and closing sequence. We are instrumental in rendering an extensive variety of Latches for Molds. These molds are accessible utilizing the propelled machines and hardware, which make these very requesting and successful. Our items are accessible in three loads grouping i.e. light, medium and overwhelming. In addition, we are likewise offering administrations for the same to the significant clients according to their particular requirements.

  • Latches for Three Plate Mould Latch lock mechanism adapts to many mold base sizes and plate thicknesses.
  • The latch and cam plates separately attach to the mold to prevent over-stroking on the machine.
  • Correct alignment lock selection will reduce maintenance costs.
  • Reduce molding downtime and increase part quality over the mold’s entire life.

Type A Latch
Cycle time is often wasted waiting for the press knockout bar to function. With the application of our Type A Latch, as illustrated to the left, plate is moved in a secondary action of the mold opening without the aid of the press knock-out bar. this latch permits you to shorten the ejection stroke, improve cycle time and increase the number of parts per shift.

Type B Latch
In this application of our Type B Latch, the A-1 plate is floated away from the B plate in the first mold opening sequence. At a predetermined opening (you determine the distance) the A-1 plate is released from the C plate for the second mold opening. This application of the Type B Latch is particularly effective on Part A & B or three-plate top runner molds.

Type C Latch
In the Type C Latch application, the A plate moves from the best brace plate in the initially shape opening. Amid this segment of the cycle, the A and B plates are bolted. As the discharge bar passes the rocker, the A and B plates part in the second shape opening.

Type D Latch
For those form applications where a shorter press stroke is required, the D Type Latch is amazingly compelling. You can enact this Latch whenever after the shape starts to open, and force the ejector get together forward. This straightforward activity abbreviates process duration and expands part generation.

Type E Latch
Type E and Type A Cycle time is often wasted waiting for the press knockout bar to function. With the application of our Type A Latch, plate is moved in a secondary action of the mold opening without the aid of the press knock-out bar. this latch permits you to shorten the ejection stroke, improve cycle time and increase the number of parts per shift, This can be made of various material and sizes.

Type F Latch
Type F and Type B In this application of our Type B Latch, the A-1 plate is floated away from the B plate in the first mold opening sequence. At a predetermined opening (you determine the distance) the A-1 plate is released from the C plate for the second mold opening. This application of the Type B Latch is particularly effective on Part A & B or three-plate top runner molds

Mould Latches FAQ’s

A mould latch controls the sequence in which selected mould plates remain coupled, float or separate during opening and closing. It helps create the required first and second opening stages for runner release, part ejection or plate movement. We select the latch from the mould layout, plate sequence, opening distances, load, press stroke, material and mounting space.
The official pages state that the latch and cam plates attach separately to help prevent machine over-stroking. Separate mounting allows the cam or release element to trigger at a controlled opening distance while the latch keeps selected plates coupled. The exact positions must follow the mould section, required sequence and available plate thickness.
A mould latch coordinates a staged opening sequence by holding and then releasing selected plates. A mould parting lock usually provides controlled resistance or temporary locking at a parting line and may not perform the same multi-stage motion. The two products should be selected from the required plate sequence, release event and force rather than used interchangeably.
No. Guide pins provide the structural linear bearing path for the plates. A latch controls only the timing and separation sequence; it must not be used to carry the side load, weight or guidance of the plates. Both the guide system and the latch system must function correctly together in the mould.
They are commonly used in three-plate moulds, stack moulds, floating-core designs and tools where the runner system or parts require staged plate separation. The exact latch design must suit the intended operating frequency, stroke length, required plate gap, pull force and temperature.
Provide the mould plate assembly drawing, required opening sequence (first and second parting), required opening distances, plate mass, mould material, available mounting space, quantity per mould, operating temperature, preferred release method and expected cycle volume. Without this data, the correct load and stroke capabilities cannot be verified.
Yes. The official pages show two variations—Mould Latch Control and Mould Latch PL Series—and list different standard sizes. Some use external cams, while others may use internal friction or mechanical triggers. We require the exact series, mounting style, sequence profile and dimensions before confirming compatibility or an alternative.
No. Latches vary in required installation space, available pull force, release distance, speed rating and durability. A latch specified for a small, slow-running mould will fail if used on a heavy, fast-cycling multi-cavity tool. Selection must reflect the actual mass being moved and the required sequence control.
Different series usually provide different mounting footprint, load capacity, release mechanism or dimensional standards. A buyer cannot assume the two series are interchangeable. We ask the buyer to select the exact series from the catalogue or provide a drawing showing the available mould dimensions and stroke so the correct product is quoted.
It can be when replacing an identical series in an existing tool, provided the mounting-hole pattern and required travel match. When replacing a different brand or custom-made latch, the entire movement sequence, cam profile and mounting face must be evaluated. We recommend checking the assembly drawing before ordering replacements.
