Abstract

A multiple-slide die-casting machine for casting pieces has a frame. A table is operatively mounted to the frame. A slide guiding mechanism is secured to the table and has slides. Each slide has a die section. The slides are actuatable in a close/open action such that the die sections mate to form a die cavity. An injection unit is mounted to the frame and is adapted to be connected to a molten medium supply. The injection unit has a nozzle and is adapted to inject molten medium from the supply into the die cavity through the nozzle for casting a piece. A relative displacement configuration is provided between the table and the injection unit such that the die sections on the table are disengageable from with the nozzle for injection of a cast product from the die cavity.
