VECTORFORM LIFTER SYSTEMS Overview
VECTORFORM LIFTER SYSTEMS Overview
VectorForm Lifter System Features & Benefits
Moves freely at angles up to 30°. For angles greater than 30° please contact DME Technical Service for design guidance.
Standard
VectorForm Lifter Advantages • 30˚+ Angle – Half the stroke for the same undercut • Simple plate machining • Easy installation • May be ganged –– Multiple systems may be “ganged” to lift a large lifter core –– A single system can lift multiple lifter cores • Accelerate or decelerate the motion of the lifter core relative to the ejector plate • Cooling may be added • Design flexibility is improved
Plate machining is significantly simplified as no diagonal hole machining is required in order to install the VectorForm Lifter System. Maximum lifter angle is greatly improved with the VectorForm Lifter System. Lifter cores may be installed at any given angle up to 30°. The robust design and construction of the VectorForm Lifter System ensures that it is secure at any given ejector stroke regardless of angle used.

Maximizes allowable undercut space.
The lifter core assembly may be secured to the Slide Base in a variety of ways, maximizing design flexibility. VectorForm Lifter System components are engineered for the common injection molding environment. No special coatings are necessary.

VectorForm Slide Bases VectorForm Lifter Systems offer three types of slide bases to meet the needs of your applications.
Standard Slide Base (SB)
•
The Standard Slide Base (SB) is the most flexible and the most economical slide base. The Standard Slide Base can be custom machined by the mold builder to meet specialized application requirements. The Standard Slide Base is also the most robust slide base with respect to loads and forces.
Joint Slide Base (JB)
• The Joint Slide Base (JB) permits the lifter core assembly to be retained with a single pin. • The Universal Slide Base (UB) is similar to the Joint Slide Base, although the single pin is replaced by a universal joint which offers greater flexibility than the Joint Slide Base (JB) while still requiring only one screw to retain the lifter core assembly.
Angled Slide Base installation may be used to accelerate or decelerate the action of the VectorForm Lifter System. In this example, the VectorForm Lifter System movement is decelerated relative to the movement of the ejector plate.
