Abstract
A method for temperature control in a molding tool is described. The molding tool has a tool base body and at least one cavity. The method includes producing molded parts from a fiber-containing material where a temperature of the molding tool is controlled in operation between a standby temperature and a maximum production temperature of a production temperature range. The standby temperature is lower than a minimum production temperature. The molding tool is kept at a base state by heat input where a molding process is brought from the base state into a production temperature range by an additional heat input. The production temperature range lies between the minimum production temperature and the maximum production temperature. A molding process is started after reaching the minimum process temperature in the molding tool and the additional heat input into the molding tool is maintained only during the molding process.
