Scope
To describe how to maintain the tool to 32 Cavity Quasar Chassis
The process flow described in this instruction:
 Level A – Daily Maintenance
 Level B – General Maintenance ~ 100,000+ cycles
 Level C* – Major Maintenance ~ 250,000+ cycles
* For Major Maintenance, it involves the same procedures as General maintenance, level B with additional steps
stated below:
 All cooling channels should be cleaned and checked.

 Please make sure all the “O” rings are changed during major maintenance or when the compression of
the “O” ring has been compromised due to insert changing.
 The recommended life of springs is 300,000 shots which required changing all the springs during the
major maintenance.
 All wearing components are required replacement during the major maintenance.
+The number of shot cycle for periodic maintenance is the best estimates from the mold maker. Molders should
redefine the necessary interval for the different level of maintenance to be carried out based on the actual
performance of the mold and the product requirements, but it should not exceed the recommended intervals.
Please note that the dismantling instruction during each process is referable since it is the reverse process while
doing assembly.
Applies to
This document applies to employees involved in the process of maintaining the tools.
