A device (1) and method for injection molding articles (25) with several plastic material components. The device (1) includes a fixed, first half mold (3), a second half-mold (6) that is movable relative to the first half-mold (3) for the purpose of opening and closing the device (1). The device also includes at least two further half-molds (10, 11), which are jointly movable relative to the first and second half-molds (3, 6), and which, in the closed position of the device (1), are situated between the first and the second half-molds (3, 6) such that cavities are formed in each of a first and a second parting plane (32, 33). The two further half-molds (10, 11), which are jointly movable, include a device (22), which in the case of an opened device (1) serves to transport the article (25) out of a first cavity (21.1) into a second cavity (21.2) so that the article (25) can be injection molded around with a further material component in the second cavity (21.2).
A device (1) for the injection molding of a multi-component-article (25) said multi-component-article comprising plural plastic material components, said device comprising a fixed, first half-mold (3) and a movable, second half-mold (6), said second half-mold being movable relative to the first half-mold to permit opening and closing of the device (1), said device further comprising at least two further half-molds (10, 11) arranged to be jointly movable relative to the first and the second half-molds (3, 6), the further half-molds (10, 11), when the device (1) is closed, mold are arranged between the first and second half-molds (3, 6) such that cavities are formed in each of a first and a second parting plane (32, 33), wherein each further half-mold comprises first and second cavities, said first and second cavities mating with cavities of the first and second mold halves forming said mold cavities, each further half-mold further comprising means to transport a first formed article out of its respective first cavity and into its respective second cavity such that the first formed article is capable of being injection molded with a further material component to form said multi-component article.
The device (1) according to 7, wherein the cross-heads (8), are displaceable independently of one another.
