Publication number: 20030008030Abstract: A mold mounting plate for an injection molding machine for processing material, in particular plastic material, includes a main body having a plate-shaped central portion. Received in the main body are plural sleeves which define openings for support of column-like holding and/or guiding elements of the injection molding machine, and are secured to the central portion such as to establish a flexible bending/torsion joint. In this way, a transmission of moments onto the column-like holding and/or guiding elements as a result of a deformation of the mold mounting plate is minimized.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 25, 2002Publication date: January 9, 2003Applicant: MANNESMANN PLASTICS MACHINERY AG,Inventors: Klaus Becker, Guido Legewie
