A device for forming injection moulded plastic articles comprises a partible mould ( 5, 7 ) having an inner mould tool ( 5 ) and two outer mould tools ( 7 ). The device further comprises a rotatable hub (4) which supports the inner mould tool ( 5 ). The inner mould tool ( 5 ) is arranged to be moved by the hub ( 4 ) in an essentially circular movement into and out of a mould cavity enclosed by the outer mould tools ( 7 ). Means ( 9 ) for opening and closing the outer mould tools ( 7 ) are arranged to move the outer mould tools ( 7 ) in a first, radial direction (R) and a second, perpendicular direction (P), moving the outer mould tools ( 7 ) so that their central axes (C) coincide throughout the movement. A method of opening and closing a partible mould in an injection moulding device is also disclosed.
