Mold Clamping Machine FAQ 1:
What is the typical maintenance schedule for mold clamping machines?
Regular maintenance should include daily lubrication of moving parts, weekly inspection of hydraulic oil levels and quality, monthly checking of electrical connections and safety devices, and annual replacement of hydraulic oil and filters. The exact schedule may vary depending on usage intensity and manufacturer recommendations.

Mold Clamping Machine FAQ 2:
How do I select the right clamping force for my application?
The required clamping force depends on the projected area of the part being molded and the injection pressure. A general rule is to multiply the projected area (in square inches) by the injection pressure (typically 2-4 tons per square inch for plastics). Add a 10-20% safety margin. For complex parts or materials with high flow resistance, higher clamping forces may be needed.

Mold Clamping Machine FAQ 3:
What are the advantages of servo-driven mold clamping machines over hydraulic ones?
Servo-driven mold clamping machines offer several benefits including higher energy efficiency (up to 60% energy savings), faster response times, more precise position control, cleaner operation (no hydraulic oil leaks), and reduced noise levels. They typically have lower maintenance requirements and can provide more consistent clamping force throughout the production cycle.
Installation Requirements:
- Stable, level foundation capable of supporting machine weight
- Proper electrical supply matching machine specifications
- Adequate ventilation and cooling
- Sufficient working space around the machine
- Proper compressed air supply if equipped with pneumatic components
