1. Classic Symptoms of Slider Sticking
When your mold shows these signs, XP Mold recommends immediate inspection:
Asymmetric flash (severe burrs on one side)
Abnormal noises (metallic screeching during operation)
Ejection misalignment (off-center ejector marks)
Hydraulic pressure fluctuations (gauge needle jumps violently)

2. XP Mold's Rapid Diagnosis Method
Step 1: Listen
Normal sound: Smooth "whooshing" slide
Abnormal sounds:
✓ "Clunking" → Wear on angle pins
✓ "Squeaking" → Lubrication failure
Step 2: Manual Test
Manually push the slider after shutdown
XP Rule of Thumb:
Resistance >5kg → Lubrication issue
Jerky movement → Guide rail deformation
Step 3: Visual Check
Key areas:
✓ Metal powder on slider base (wear sign)
✓ Bluish angle pins (overheating evidence)
3. XP Mold Custom Solutions
