Deep-drawing tool

A compression molding device for shaping a work piece, comprising

• at least one mold (3) with a work piece associated surface area for generating at least a part of the geometry of the work piece,
• a punch (2) with a work piece associated surface area for generating at least a part of the geometry of the work piece,
• wherein at least one of the mold (3) and the punch (2) are comprised of at least first and second parts, the first part (3.1) being a mold template forming the shape of the work piece and the second part (3.2) being the mold template receiving base body,
• wherein an intermediate layer (6) is provided between the mold template (3.1) and the base body (3.2), wherein said intermediate layer (6) is a measuring strip with at least one sensor and/or an elastic intermediate layer.

A compression molding device (1) for shaping a work piece, comprising:

• a mold (3) having a work piece associated surface area for generating at least a part of the work piece geometry,
• a punch (2) having a work piece associated surface area corresponding to at least a part of the work piece geometry,
• wherein at least one of the mold (3) and the punch (2) optionally include a pressure measuring means (5) below the surface for measuring a localized pressure in the area of the work piece associated surface (3.3) area, and
• wherein at least one of the mold (3) and the punch (2) has embedded in the mold at least one actuator (4) below the work piece associated surface area (3.3).
