FasTie® Quick Ejector Tie-In System quickly “ties-in” the mold ejector plate to the press ejection system in an injection molding press, dramatically reducing mold change time.
Description & Use
In an injection molding press, the FasTie® system quickly “ties-in” the mold ejector plate to the press ejection system, dramatically reducing mold change time. The greatest savings are realized in presses where spece is limited and the ejector system is difficult to tie in using solid knockout bars.
The FASTIE coupler may be permanently mounted to the press ejector plate. The Quick-connect locking mechanism in the coupler snaps mechanically onto the mold-mounted pull stud during mold installation.
To release the knockouts, apply shop air to the coupler. The coupler opens to release the pull 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 knockout locations, an air manifold is recommended to release all couplers simultaneously. The FasTie® Couplers and pull studs are available in 3 sizes to suite various press sizes: 1″, 1-3/8″ and 2″.
Features & Benefits
- FasTie® installs easily into existing tapped holes, no additional machining is required
- FasTie® reduces mold setting time by quickly uncoupling, and there are no loose parts to stow.
- FasTie® remains coupled during mold cycling for increased “tie in reliability and reduced wear.
- Speedbar adjustable knockout bar changes length quickly without tools
- Speedbar saved molder time and cost of machining individual knockout bars to fit different molds.

Accessories
Additional parts to aid installation and use
- SpeedBar Adjustable Length Knockout Bar changes length without tools + 1/2″ in increments of 0.006″. Air passes through the bar for air hook-up at the back of the press ejector plate.
- Fixed Length Knockout Bar provides an air passage to the back of the press ejector plate. Several lengths are stocked with one blank end for on-site finishing.
- Center Knockout Bar and Center Adapter provide an air passage in front of ythe press ejector plate for center knockout. Also use for multiple knockouts.
- Air Manifold splits single air supply into four circuits to aid air connection. Comes with 1/8″ diameter tubing and pneumatic connectors.
