locking cylinders - KOR-LOK™ from PFA

Alignment Coupler
The hardened Alignment Coupler threads into the back of your core slide to allow a "T" slot interface for rapid removal / installation of your KOR-LOK™ Side-Action System.

Alignment Screw
The hardened Alignment Screw is utilized to transfer force and not minor misalignment between the KOR-LOK™ Side-Action System and the core slide system. A "T" slot interface ensures a rapid removal / installation.

Piston Rod
The hardened Piston Rod takes the load on-plane to minimize wear. The engineering process involved in making the Piston Rod ensures extreme load capacity and long life!

Mounting Flange
Mounting Flanges are threaded to match the corresponding KOR-LOK™ unit. All you have to do is drill the holes for the bolts and bolt it on!

Jam Nut
The Jam nut locks your KOR-LOK™ Side-Action System in place once you have established the perfect position.

Sensors
New Relay-style Sensors register both locking action and retract position for positive control of your operation.

Locking Segments
The hardened Locking Segments force the rod forward against extreme loads to ensure flash-free parts.

Locking Slides
The hardened Locking Slide has a tapered internal diameter which increases the output force by forcing the segments into the rod groove as the Locking Slide drives into the locked position.

Threaded Nose
Threaded nose allows for precise positioning and ease of adjustment so you can fine tune your KOR-LOK™ System to produce perfect parts!

Multi Port Configuration
Multi-Port configuration means you have the convenience of 5 SAE ports to choose from (2 set and 3 pull ports). All ports are included and SAE ensure the best possible seal avialable.

Move your cursor over the image parts below to get a detailed description.

KOR-LOK™ Side-Action System provide large pre-loads and thermal compensation to core slides by use of a dual action locking intensifier at end of stroke. The threaded housing supports the intensifier and integral cylinder mechanism and transfers the load between the mold base and core slide as follows:

SET

The rod is extended using extend pressure. As the slide contacts the stop at end of stroke, the locking segments are forced into the rod groove by hydraulic pressure on the locking slide. As the segments are "squeezed," the rod and slide are compressed forward against the stop under very high forces, removing flex and thermal size variations. Final locking slide movement activates the set sensor.

PULL

Retract pressure forces the locking slide clear of the segments, allowing them to disengage as the rod and slide are pulled. When fully retracted, the rear pull sensor is activated.

See animations page to see how it works.
