<p>A die changer registration system of the present invention includes a die (300) having a holes (310) and beveled edges (330) and a die changer (202) having trigger levers (240), trigger clamps (250), and a die receiving surface including pins (230) into the die holes (310) extending therefrom. The die is registered on the die changer (202) by fitting the pins (230) into the die holes (310). Trigger levers (240) are used to register and release the die (300) from the die changer (202). Further, trigger clamps (205) are used to hold the die (300) within the die changer (202) using the beveled edges (330). In this manner, the die changer (202) can be used to automatically registers and changes dies without requiring 'make-ready' operations. (Figure 1).</p> |
