There are three methods to produce injection molded parts with external undercuts, recesses or side holes that prevent the part’s direct removal from the mold cavity, they are sliders, lifters and manual inserts.
Sliders and lifters are used for higher volumes production, because they are automatic and efficient. Manual inserts are usually used for prototype/low volume molding, it costs less during the tool building, though they add a labor cost to each part when injection molding.
In this video, we would like to share how slider works in the injection molding process, hope you enjoy it!
