Apparatus and method for ejecting molded products

摘要

During operation of a molding apparatus that combines a cavity part (10) having a plurality of cavity sections (13) and a core part (12) having a plurality of cores (23) to define a plurality of mold cavities (36) therebetween, when the cavity part and the core part are first separated from one another following formation of products (38) in the mold cavities, force is applied to the products in order to retain the products in the cavity part. When the cavity part and the core part are further separated from one another the products are moved from the cavity part to the core part; and the products are ejected from the core part when the cavity part and the core part are further separated from one another. Alternatively, the products are ejected from the cavity part.
