Slide Guide Systems
Highly engineered slide guiding systems constructed of carefully selected materials and manufactured to exacting tolerances result in systems that minimize longitudinal and transverse movement.
This pre-loaded pass line slide guide system is an example of AIDA metalforming innovations that maximize accuracy and die life.
6 Point Flat Slide Guide System
The AIDA six point flat slide guides are found on the NC1 and NC2 Models. These guides are designed with extra length and surface area to provide the greatest possible resistance to slide tipping caused by off-center loading in the die.
Guide clearance is set and maintained using full-length shims both right to left and front to back. This requires less maintenance than other press manufacture's setting system, which uses small screws to control the clearance.
