  • Process and apparatus for producing components
    Publication number: 20060202390
    Abstract: A process and an apparatus are described for producing a component in a tool. A plastics material is introduced into a cavity (12) of the tool and a tool apparatus (10) exerts a first force on the plastics material, thereby stamping it. In addition, a second force is introduced which exerts a second force on the plastics material.

  • Structural component and method and a mold tool for its production
    Publication number: 20050064141
    Abstract: A method is described for manufacturing a structural component (10) with a varnish exterior surface, with the steps of: providing of a varnish film (11), the exterior surface (18) of which is substantially smooth, thermoforming the varnish film and back molding the varnish film with a carrier material (12) in particular made of plastic, wherein during at least one of the two steps consisting of thermoforming and back molding, an exterior surface (18) of the varnish film is provided with a surface structure (21), which causes uneven reflection on the exterior surface.
