Abstract
A method is provided for manufacturing a multi-component plastic molded part and a tool system. The method comprises a first injection molding step for molding at least one preform, and a second injection molding step for molding at least one second component onto the preform. The first and second injection molding steps are performed with an injection molding machine comprising a first outer half-mold and at least one second outer half-mold positioned on opposite sides of a rotatable carrier-block. The carrier-block has at least four side faces each comprising an inner half-mold. The preform in the first injection molding step the second component in the second injection molding step are simultaneously injection molded. The injection molding machine is opened by moving the first and second outer half-mold spaced apart from the rotatable carrier-block. The preform is carried out of the first injection molding step, the plastic molded part is carried out of the second injection molding step by rotating the carrier-block. The preform is cooled while carried by the inner-half mold on the carrier-block by means of a cooling medium. The plastic molded part is removed from the inner-half mold on the carrier-block by means of a handling means.
