Zusammenfassung:A processing turret including a processing element to process an article, a cam, a cam support and a slide assembly. The slide assembly moves the article and/or the processing element in the processing turret. The slide assembly includes a slide block, a rail and an adaptor. The slide block comprises rolling elements and is configured so that during a stroke of the slide assembly, a force imparted onto the slide assembly by the stroke is centered on the rolling elements. The assembly is configured to provide approximately a 4.0 inch stroke or more to move the article and/or processing element. The ends of at least one of the adaptor and rail remain rigid during the stroke operation.
