EZ-SLIDER Slide Unit
Molding features in the side of a plastic parts has historically been a designer challenge. Traditional methods typically deployed to achieve features include one of the following: slide units, hydraulic cylinders or lifters. All these methods require complex angular machining, multiple components and/or the use of hydraulics to achieve the feature. They also require a positive stop to hold injection pressure however EZ SLIDER is capable of holding mold injection pressure up to 15,000 lbs. EZ SLIDER is a simplified self-contained unit designed to aid in molding undercuts and other part features. The unit utilizes the open and closing action of the plates to action a hydraulic plunger which intern moves the exten- sion rod forward to create the part feature and once the mold opens the rod retreats allowing for part ejection. EZ SLIDER replaces and reduces machining required for slide units and lifters. No need for complex angular machining set ups or multiple components assemblies! Simply machine in a pocket and drop in the EZ SLIDER.
Features & Benefits

EZ SLIDER angled units are available and come in standard 5° increments of deceleration up to 35°. Undercuts can be relieved where traditional slides or lifters cannot be utilized giving molders more design and manufacturing flexibility. Eliminating the need for costly mechanical or hydraulic drivers. Replaces expensive hydraulic cylinders, external limit switches, mounting plates. Eliminates the manufacture time and materials for additional components.
