Title: M&R Tri Lock
Post by: Ragz13 on October 19, 2026, 11:03:58 AM

Hope y`all can help me out here.
I`ve been using the M&R Tri Lock for years with no problems. Put the Tri lock pallet on, line up the job, no problem. Lately though, the designs are crooked on the pallet. Films are straight on the carrier sheet. The bracket on the tri lock is tight and appears to be straight. It`s a crapshoot when we put it on. We have to move it left or right, lock it down and hope we have it right. If not, loosen it up and try again.

I`m not sure what changed to cause this. Any suggestions, or has anyone else had this issue?

Could the pin bar on the exposure unit someone move a little bit or is it taped/glued on good.  Or the tri-loc on the expo unit.
 I remember one time when we were using duct tape to fasten the unit on the expo unit that the duct tape gave it some play when we were constantly pushing on it in one direction.   We also had one of the pins come off on time and that caused a negative reaction as well on everything lining up smoothly.
