A method for molding composite items, constituted by beads of sintered expanded resin and by inserts, comprising the steps of: using a movable half-mold (2) and first and second half-molds (3,4) which can perform a translational motion at right angles to the direction of motion of the movable half-mold (2); performing the molding operation by means of one of the translatable half-molds (3,4) mated with the movable half-mold (2), translating the translatable half-mold (3,4) from a position for accessing the half-mold to a molding position, simultaneously accessing the other one of the translatable half-molds (3,4) when the other one of the translatable half-molds (3,4) is located at the region for access to the translatable half-mold. <IMAGE> |
