PFA manufactures locking cylinders and core pull cylinders for molds and dies; quick mold change and quick die change systems for injection molding, die casting, and metal stamping; locking and braking actuators/cylinders for work cell and heavy industrial applications; and robotic end-effectors, grippers, and gripper pads for robtic applications. Both off the shelf and custom solutions are available to make your application a success.

KOR-LOK® Side-Action Systems and DIE-LOK™
Multi-slide Systems for pre-loading and true locking of moveable cores on injection molds and die cast dies, provide improved part quality, speed and performance over traditional cam pin and toggle methods.

SWITCHMAX® Connectivity Components and Electrical Cables
Integrate various "on mold" sensors (relay, mechanical, and proximity DC) into a single signal interface common on most injection molding machines. LED indication also assists operators. No more complex wiring — just plug and play.

Hydra-Jaws™ Quick Mold Change and Hydra-Latch™ Quick Knockout Systems
Provide consistent clamping and support rapid mold changes for a wide range of mold sizes in a single machine. Clamps move to fit the mold!

Quick Die Change Systems
Provide easily customized solutions for stamping die "quick change". Bolster extensions, die rails/lifters, check valve and locking clamps, and electronic 5,000 psi pump controllers are just a few of the options available.

Self-Locking and Braking Cylinders
Hold large loads many times that of standard cylinders, even with pressure removed, making them ideal for a wide variety of industrial applications, where large load capacity or loss of air scenarios demand greater performance and simplicity.

Robotic Automation End Effectors
Modular products allow the coupling of Grippers, Gripper Pads (GP), Compliance Devices (RCC) and Crash Protection (OPD) into a simple and integrated robotic end-effector solution.
