The tool halves of a combined forming and stamping tool, hold and stamp out a vessel, by the deep-drawing of plastic sheet. The result for example, is a plastic cup. In operation, they are cooled by an internal flow of water. The halves are held at the same temperature, or alternatively, the difference is intentional. During a stoppage, or rest; perhaps a breakdown, the cooling water supply is shut off, and the contained cooling water in both halves (8, 9), is circulated between them. Other regimes of heating/cooling are feasible. A system to carry out the procedure is also claimed.
