The platen is the part of a machine that one half of a mold attaches to. The mold is normally created in two halves.

In plastic manufacturing injection molding, each mold half is bolted, clamped, attached to one platen. One platen is normally a fixed or non movable and the movable one slides on Tie Bars that go through the four corners of the platen.

What is a platen lathe?

A platen lathe is a type of lathe that features a flat, horizontal bed with a platen, which is a flat surface used for supporting the workpiece during machining. It is primarily designed for producing flat surfaces and can be used for various tasks such as shaping or milling. The platen lathe is particularly useful in manufacturing environments where precision and stability are required for machining operations.
