Abstract
A method for producing an object made of a polymeric material, said polymeric material having a melting temperature (T), comprises the steps of: melting the polymeric material; after the step of melting, cooling the polymeric material below the melting temperature (T) in a cooling zone; severing a dose from a flow of polymeric material coming from the cooling zone by means of a severing element (); obtaining said object by shaping the dose between a male forming element and a female forming element () which move towards one another with a mutual movement speed, the dose having a temperature lower than said melting temperature (T). Between a start-of-forming configuration, in which the dose is in contact with both the male forming element and the female forming element (), and a start-of-deceleration configuration, in which the male forming element and the female forming element () begin to decelerate relative to one another, the mutual movement speed is greater than 10 mm/s.
