The High Quality Mould Components Date Stamp is a versatile, precision-engineered solution for imprinting production dates, batch numbers, and traceability information onto plastic, metal, or rubber moulded parts. Designed for compatibility with all major mould types (injection, blow, compression), this date stamp features a modular design with replaceable date modules, allowing quick adjustments for daily, monthly, or yearly date changes. Constructed from high-carbon tool steel (SKD11, HRC 58–62) with a wear-resistant TiCN coating, it ensures clear, durable imprints even under the high pressures and temperatures of industrial moulding processes.
1. Multi-Format Date Modules: Includes interchangeable numeric and alphabetic inserts for MM/DD/YYYY, DD-MM-YYYY, or custom formats (e.g., "W25" for week 25). Each module is laser-engraved for precision and secured with a spring-loaded retainer for easy swapping.
2. Universal Mould Compatibility: Fits standard ejector pin holes (Ø5mm–Ø12mm) in mould cores or cavities, with shank lengths customizable from 20mm–150mm to accommodate thick mould plates. Compatible with hot runner and cold runner systems.
3. Extreme Wear Resistance: The SKD11 steel body with TiCN coating (thickness 2–3μm) resists abrasion from glass-filled polymers and high-speed ejection, lasting 50% longer than uncoated stamps in abrasive applications.
4. Temperature and Chemical Resistance: Operates seamlessly at mould temperatures up to 200°C (392°F) and is resistant to common mould release agents (silicone-based, water-based), ensuring consistent performance without degradation.
5. Easy Date Adjustment: A thumb screw on the mould exterior allows date changes without disassembling the mould, reducing downtime during batch transitions. Pre-set date modules are available for quick setup.
• Injection Moulding of Plastics: Marks PP, PE, ABS, and PC parts with production dates for recall management and warranty tracking.
• Blow Moulding of Bottles: Imprints batch numbers and expiration dates on PET beverage bottles and HDPE containers.
• Die Casting of Metals: Used in aluminum/zinc die casting to mark part numbers on automotive components and industrial hardware.
• Rubber Moulding: Ensures traceability on O-rings, gaskets, and seals by imprinting manufacturing dates and material codes.
Q: Can the date stamp be used on curved part surfaces?
A: Yes, the stamp tip can be customized to match the part’s curvature (radius ≥10mm), ensuring full contact and clear imprints on non-flat surfaces.
Q: What is the minimum character size available?
A: The smallest character height is 1mm, suitable for tiny components like watch casings or medical micro parts. Larger sizes (up to 5mm) are ideal for visibility on large parts.
Q: How do I align the date stamp for multi-cavity moulds?
A: Each stamp includes a positioning key to ensure uniform alignment across all cavities. A 3D printed template is provided for easy setup in complex mould layouts.
Q: Can the stamp be used with biodegradable or recycled plastics?
A: Yes, the TiCN coating is inert and does not react with bio-polymers or recycled materials, maintaining imprint quality and part safety.
Q: What is the warranty for wear and tear?
A: We offer a 1-year warranty on coating integrity and machining precision. Normal wear (e.g., character edge rounding) is not covered but can be addressed with insert replacement.
