METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR POST MOLD COOLING OF PLASTIC PIECES.

摘要

Method and apparatus for cooling molded plastic pieces preferably includes a take out structure/step (13) configured to hold the plurality of plastic parts oriented such that closed ends thereof are disposed toward an inside of the take out structure (13) and open ends thereof are disposed toward an outside of the take out structure. A movement structure/step is configured to cause relative movement between the take out structure (13) and at least one of a first cooling station and a second cooling station. The first cooling station (20) includes a first cooling structure/step configured to provide a cooling fluid to an inside of the plurality of plastic parts through the open ends thereof. The second cooling station (22) includes a second cooling structure/step configured to provide a cooling fluid to an inside of the plurality of plastic parts through the open ends thereof.
