ABSTRACT:
An in-mold system and method for handling molded articles. An in-mold lid handling system provides a slide that is operable to translate laterally across a molding face of an injection mold to perform a first operation on, or to retrieve a plurality of molded articles from, a column of molding cavities and to thereafter retreat to an outboard position for a second operation, or to transfer the molded articles to drop chutes. The driving means for the slide include a first and a second transmission attached to the ends thereof. The transmissions operate on the same basic principle wherein at least one belt contained therein is configured along a path defined by a plurality of guides, the path including a plurality of segments defined between the guides, and the at least one belt being operable along the path between two positions, wherein the slide is attached to various suitably arranged path segments and is thereby driven between the inboard and the outboard positions respectively.
