PATEC's is the pioneer of Link Motion Drive technology which decreases the slide technology by up to 40% during the working portion of the stroke, so the material flows more effectively. At the same time, this allows the non-working portion of the stroke to increase in velocity, so as to maintain a high production rate.
The result is a better quality part at higher production rates. In addition, slower speed through the working stroke reduces tool impact, snap-through, noise and vibration, thereby increasing machine and tool life.
