Mold Side Shields

Excellent for both extremely short cycle times & very high speeds of travel

EMI’s high quality Mold Side Shields mount on each side of the molding machine, opening and closing smoothly, along with the mold. The screen prevents parts from dispersing. Parts are directed downward onto a conveyor or into boxes, rather than scattering around the mold.
