When orders change often, the real loss is not only the change itself. It is the waiting time in front of the machine while the next mold is still being moved into position.
Erack gives the mold area a direct crane-assisted storage method, so the next tool can be reached and lifted without relying on a crowded forklift schedule.
Main pain points
Injection molding plants often lose hours to changeovers because the next mold is still waiting in storage or the forklift is already tied up somewhere else. That leaves the machine idle and the schedule under pressure.
- Forklift queues slow down mold changes
- Machine downtime grows during order switching
- Workers wait for handling equipment before lifting
- OEE drops because the press is not producing
Core value
Erack works as quick mold change equipment by keeping the mold close to the machine and letting the top lifting device do the main work. That shortens the path from storage to press and removes unnecessary forklift dependence.
For production teams, that means less waiting and more time with the machine actually running.
