Key advantages of SMI multi couplings

Fits on small machines and molds

The compact layout, low-profile locking mechanism, and small mounting footprint are perfect for applications where space is limited.

Easy to use

The intuitive and ergonomic design ensures anyone can operate the system without special training, skills, or tools, making work easier, safer, and efficient for all employees.

Eliminates mold set-up mistakes

Mechanically designed to prevent any cross-connection of water circuits, eliminating set-up scrap and machine downtime for errors.

Increases production time

All circuits are connected and disconnected simultaneously, in a single action at a single location, significantly reducing downtime during mold changes.

Brings standardization

Connections and disconnections across all machines and molds become identical, reducing variability in the mold change and molding processes, creating a foundation for Lean Manufacturing.

Provides the opportunity to contribute to a sustainable development programme

With Stäubli, you can rely on the overall performance of your long-term investments and no workplace pollution.
