Watch mould curtains in action - Now we have made available a short video along with a simple case study to help you decide. Click here for the video  (2MB open is in a new pop-up window) IPS Mould Shields™ stop your parts from scattering randomly within the mould open space by keeping them within the desired “drop zone”.
Mould Shields crystal clear plastic curtain allows you to observe your moulding area, and monitor your parts production in progress. With an in-service life expectancy of 3 million cycles Mould Shields have a rapid payback based on scrap reduction and increased good production output. As the mould opens and closes the Mould Shield correspondingly unwinds and recoils itself with each press cycle. Since Mould Shields are easily attached and removed as necessary, they can be quickly moved from press to press to meet changing production demands.
If a standard size or multiple stacked shield won’t meet your needs, we will make you a shield to any size you want. For vertical presses, where you might need to enclose 3 sides of your mould, we have special kits to meet your application.
