Fibre-moulding facility for producing moulded parts made of fibre material degradable in an environmentally friendly fashion

A method for forming molded parts, comprising:

• providing at least one first pulp as a liquid solution with an environmentally friendly, degradable fiber material in at least one first pulp reservoir;
• at least partially immersing a suction tool into the first pulp, wherein the suction tool is a multi-tool having a plurality of suction heads, each suction head having a three-dimensionally shaped suction side that is adapted to a contour of a molded part to be formed by the suction head;
• applying a negative pressure on the suction tool to suck fiber material from the first pulp onto the suction sides of the suction heads and form molded parts corresponding to the shapes of the suction sides;
• dispensing the molded parts from the suction tool;
• and
• applying one or more functional layers on surfaces of the molded parts.

A system for forming molded parts, comprising

• at least one first pulp reservoir containing at least one first pulp as a liquid solution with an environmentally friendly, degradable fiber material;
• a movement unit;
• a suction tool attached to the movement unit, wherein the suction tool is a multi-tool having a plurality of suction heads, each suction head having a three-dimensionally shaped suction side adapted to a contour of a molded part to be molded by the suction head, and wherein the suction side is configured to form the molded part during application of negative pressure in the suction head while the movement unit at least partially immerses the suction head in the first pulp;
• an application station, wherein the application station is configured to apply one or more functional layers on surfaces of the molded parts formed by the suction tool;
• an output unit configured to output the molded parts from the suction tool;
• and
• a control unit configured to control the movement unit, the suction tool, and the application station.
