Single vs Double Sliding Table: How to Choose
The main difference is the handling arrangement. A single slide moves one lower mold between molding and handling positions. A double-slide arrangement alternates two lower mold stations at the clamping position. Compare the complete cycle and tooling requirements before choosing either layout.
| Selection point | Single slide | Double slide |
|---|---|---|
| Lower mold handling | One lower mold moves between two positions. | Two lower mold stations alternate at the clamp. |
| Tooling review | Check slide travel, mold support and access around the part or cable. | Also check compatibility of both lower molds with the upper tooling. |
| Cycle assessment | Account for molding, table movement and handling time. | Assess whether handling at one station can overlap molding at the other. |
| Cell planning | Verify loading access, ejection, insert retention, guarding, services and automation interfaces for the complete cell. | |
Does Double Slide Always Produce Twice as Many Parts?
No. Output depends on molding time, handling time, movement, cavities and additional operations. Use a timed trial with the proposed part and mold instead of applying a fixed multiplier.
How Do I Read the MH-45T Injection Tables?
Each table lists the catalog values for the named single- or double-slide model and screw options. Use the table for the selected configuration and confirm the actual molding requirements with your part and mold data.
When Should I Compare a Rotary Table?
Compare table geometry, mold stations, service routing and handling access with the rotary table machine. Use the vertical machine selection checklist to check the part, material and mold together.
