<p>The invention relates to an apparatus for moulding plastics articles which comprises clamping frames (32) for gripping a preformed blank only by its edge region and transporting the blank first through a heating station (14) where the blank is heated and then to a moulding station (16) where the softened blank is made to conform to the shape of a mould. The clamping frames move with the blank from one station to the next and mate with the mould (48) which defines the shape of the finished article.</p> |
