Abstract
An actuator for an injection molding tool includes a housing, a plunger and a slide member. The housing includes an aperture extending therethrough and a first recess extending through an open end of the aperture. The plunger is slidably received in the aperture and is movable therein relative to the housing between first and second positions. The plunger may include a second recess formed therein that cooperates with the first recess to define a cavity when the plunger is in the first position. The slide member slidably engages the plunger for movement relative to the plunger between an extended position in which the slide member extends into the cavity and a retracted position in which the slide member is retracted out of the cavity.
