Multi-slide Die Making

Fourslide die or Multi-slide tooling, in the most time, also be called as a multislide, multi-slide, or four-way die,is an efficient method of performing multiple bends, particularly on small, assembly parts. Multiple operations can be accomplished using timed cams moving dies in succession, each working with specific tooling to create specific geometry and often eliminating the need for secondary operations. Multi-slide or fourslide, is a metalworking machine tool used in the high-volume manufacture of small stamped components from bar or wire stock. The press is most simply described as a horizontal stamping press that uses cams to control tools. The machine is used for progressive or transfer stamping operations.
