As a manufacturer of custom material handing vehicles, RICO\u2019s engineering team often helps companies working with large press dies and molds, protecting their equipment with high quality and trusted quick die change trucks.<\/p>\n<p>All of RICO\u2019s quick-change die cart vehicles are tailor made to fit an end-user&#8217;s specific operation and application requirements.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JL_lECc5Sm4\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Load Capabilities<\/h2>\n<p>Dies are a significant investment. If a die is damaged from an ill-suited lift truck, not only is production stalled, but now the die must be repaired or replaced, which can be very expensive. Outfitting your operation with die lift trucks made for your unique load specifications is an important customization.<\/p>\n<p>A custom die cart must be built to securely hold, lift and move dies from racking to both staging and the press.<\/p>\n<p>No matter the die size or change over frequency, RICO can build an efficient solution with the right load capacity for every system.<\/p>\n<h2>Additional Tiers<\/h2>\n<p>Die change handlers are designed to minimize downtime. RICO\u2019s engineers can <a href=\"\/products-industry\/steel-stamping\/tier-die-handler-6k\/\">build die carts with multiple tiers<\/a> to make the die change even faster. Two-tier systems can allow for the movement of multiple dies at once, saving unnecessary trips back to staging or storage areas.<\/p>\n<h2>Safety Features<\/h2>\n<p>All RICO trucks are built with the safety of both the load, but more importantly, operators and nearby pedestrians in mind.<\/p>\n<p>Often, when manufacturers don\u2019t have the proper equipment necessary for die transportation, they resort to using traditional forklifts, putting the die and operator in a potentially dangerous situation. A custom designed quick-change die truck not only maximizes production but makes the job safer for all involved.<\/p>\n<p>Additional safety measures provide the right level of safety and protection for the cargo, the operator and those working nearby. These safety features include a visual laser alignment system, a brake override button and die retention pins.<\/p>\n<p>Do you need the right vehicle to take your quick die change system to the next level? <a href=\"\/contact-us\/\">Contact RICO<\/a> to learn more about how our quick die change carts can maximize efficiency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quick die change (QDC) systems are an essential lean manufacturing practice that can increase press uptime, lower costs per part, and help boost the return on investment for many manufacturers.
