Date Nov. 12, 1992.A handling device for an injection molding machine of plastic parts, removes the molded plastic parts from between a pair of platens. The handling device includes a rigid gripper arm which is pivotable about an axis extending parallel to a longitudinal direction of the machine. The handling device is supported directly on a machine frame which also carries the die platens. A space between the platens is left free of conventional longitudinal bars so that the rigid gripper arm can freely pivot into and out of the space between the die platens. Advantageously, the gripper arm is straight in a preferred embodiment of the invention and the simple pivotable movement of the arm is capable of moving the arm into a broad work area between platens for removing plastic parts from the platens.
