Die Lifter PDL-B
The die lifter is an auxiliary device installed into the U-slot of a press bed or stamping machine. By means of hydraulic or spring actuation, it slightly lifts the bottom of the die, reducing friction between the die and the press bed surface. This allows the die to be moved and replaced with ease. It is one of the most essential components in Quick Die Change (Q.D.C.) systems.

Main Functions
• Reduce Friction: The die bottom is lifted by rollers, allowing smooth movement.
• Save Time & Effort: Makes die handling, insertion, and removal much easier.
• Improve Efficiency: When combined with quick clamps and die arms, die changeover time is significantly shortened.
• Protect Dies & Equipment: Prevents damage to the die base or press table caused by forced pulling or dragging.

Structure Type
1) Ball Type: Lifts the die with steel balls, providing extremely low friction, ideal for moving heavy dies. Ensures smoother die transfer during pushing.
2) Width of lifter: 28 mm / 50 mm
3) Length of lifter: 200 ~ 2000 mm

Features
• Standard lifting stroke of approx. 3 mm, ensuring stable lifting without affecting positioning.
• Customizable according to die weight, dimensions, and press bed length.
• Simple construction, easy maintenance, and long service life.

Applications
• Quick die change for stamping dies.
• Die handling for plastic injection molding machines.
• Automotive parts stamping and metal forming production lines.
• Integrated with die clamps and die arms to form a complete Q.D.C. system.
