Description & Use
In an injection molding
press, the FASTIE system
quickly tiesin the mold
ejector plate to the
press ejection system,
dramatically reducing
mold change time. The
greatest time savings
are realized in presses
where space is limited
and the ejector system
is difficult to tie in
using solid knock-out
bars.
The FASTIE coupler is
permanently mounted to
the press ejector plate.
The quick-connect
locking mechanism in the
coupler snaps
mechanically onto the
mold-mounted stud during
mold installation.
To release the ejectors,
apply shop air to the
coupler. T h e coupler
opens to release the
stud, disconnecting the
press and tooling
ejector plates. The
coupler remains in the
open position, ready for
a new mold to be set.
For multiple ejector
locations, an air
manifold is recommended
to release all couplers
simultaneously. See
inside catalog pages for
installation examples.
Two FASTIE sizes are
available: 1-inch model
for presses 500 tons and
under and 2-inch model
for presses larger than
500 tons.

Accessories
The FASTIE system
features additional
parts to aid
installation and use.
These accessories can be
used in combination to
accommodate your
specific press and mold
applications. Different
thread sizes are
available to suit most
presses and molds.
