Unit 10 Two Single-stage Die Carts on Rails (Figure 10-4) 1. The cart on the left carries the new die. It moves on rails, approaching the press from the side. The other cart, equipped with a push-pull unit, gets the old die out of the press. It then moves backward on its rails, which run straight to the press. 2. The cart with the new die now moves in front of the press, so that it stands exactly between the press and the cart holding the old die. 3. The push-pull unit on the second cart pushes the new tool into the press. 4. The cart that first brought the new die now takes the old die back to storage. Unit 10 Domino (Figure 10-5) 1. A domino system changes dies in several presses in a line simultaneously. First the die carts move in front of their respective presses, each one carrying the appropriate new die. In addition, one empty cart moves to the rear of the last press. 2. Carts and press bolsters are aligned. New dies are then pushed into their presses and, in turn, push old dies onto the carts on the rear of these presses, in a domino effect. How to Judge the Quick and the Die Change Equipment Choosing the right equipment that will be the most cost-effective depends on each application and what the goal is for changeover time. Because of the trend toward larger presses, demand has grown for very large, dual-position die carts. Quick die change starts with tool design and pressroom layout, and it is critical that the quick die change tooling coordinates with them. Unit 10 Quick Die Change Equipment Because of the trend toward larger presses, we have begun building extremely large and dual-position die carts (Figure 10-6). Rolling Bolsters Rolling bolsters are suitable when the press table is at ground level. The bolster is moved out of the press to allow easy and safe access to the die. The dies are either exchanged directly on the bolster, which is then pulled back into the press, or there is an exchange with a second bolster that has been prestaged with
