- The mould release application on steel parts is necessary to take easier the produced parts out of the mould or form.
- The mould release material is for lubricate and not making the forms or moulds dirty. Also there should be no influence on the following production steps like laminating, coating etc. plus working easily with such application. The environmental aspects are also important.
