Method for producing a plastics hollow object

摘要

In a process for moulding a plastic product with radial chambers inside axially closed walls a compression mould (1) is partially filled with powdered or granular plastic, an inner core (6) is located in the mould cavity behind the plastic and after heating the plastic is compressed. The core(6) is subsequently removed to reveal hollow chambers in the moulding. Also claimed are: (i) a mould having an inner core (6) comprising one or more parts which are destroyed after pressing or alternatively where the inner core is a reusable split core; and (ii) the use of the process for moulding closed rotary pump impellers.
