Abstract

A method for producing a part includes the steps of: positioning an insert in a mold via a gripping element, able to be actuated between an inactive configuration and an active configuration, of a gripping device comprising a shaping wall; shaping the insert in a reinforcing element against a surface; during positioning, maintaining a separation between the surface and the insert, and moving the shaping wall to apply the insert against the surface; and during the shaping, applying the shaping wall and the gripping element against the insert and the surface, the element being actuated in its inactive configuration before the application of the shaping wall.
