Abstract
A mould drum, a system for moulding comprising a mould drum, a method for moulding, and a method for manufacturing a mould drum such that the mould drum includes a mould tube defining an outer circumferential surface with groups of multiple recessed mould cavities. The mould tube has a first mould tube head end. The mould drum includes a driven flange structure arranged against the first mould tube head end, which is adapted to be driven by a mould drum drive member to rotate the mould tube about a drum rotation axis. The driven flange structure is provided with a tooth profile, and the mould tube is provided with a meshing tooth profile, both tooth profiles meshing with each other and thereby being able to transfer torque from the driven flange structure to the mould tube.
