A method and an apparatus for the thermoforming of hollow objects from a sheet of thermoplastics material, which effects in one single operating cycle: - the production of a pressed object(s) by hot forming and cutting out of the object(s) between one half of a movable double female mould 6, 7 which is located in the forming area opposite a male die 3, - movement of the female half of the mould containing therewithin the thermoformed object(s) towards a corresponding discharge area alternately to one side or the other of the forming area, - picking up the object(s) via pick up heads 26, 27 from the female half of the mould and transferring each object to receiving formers 37 of a corresponding shape, which formers move sequentially stepwise, - sequential movement of the formers to one or more workstations at the same time as the female mould moves back to place its other half opposite the male die in order to produce a subsequently formed object, and - performing at least one further operation on all the objects carried by the formers at the same time as the next formed object(s) is produced eg filling or stacking. <IMAGE>
