    What makes our Straight sliding shoe system different?

    The motion of the straight sliding shoe is different from that of the traditional sliding shoe (as shown in the figure)


    HELL Straight Sliding Spindle Sliding Shoe


    When a new sliding shoe is just used, the contact surface between the sliding shoe and the cylinder is small. After a period of time, the sliding shoe diamond will form a curved surface.


    When it is necessary to adjust the sliding shoe, the traditional sliding shoe system rotates, the arc surface cannot be completely matched with the cylinder, resulting in scratches to the cylinder copper surface.


    However, the arc of straight sliding shoe system can always keep in line with the cylinder when rotating, and will not scratch the copper cylinder, which can not only save time of changing stylus but also extend the life of straight sliding shoe (as shown in the figure).
