Abstract: A method is for production of a moulded skin. The method includes a) inserting a film into a clamping frame; b) moving a positive mould relative to the clamping frame for pre-shaping of the film; c) impressing an insert on a side of the film which is orientated away from the positive mould; d) moving the positive mould into a negative mould which corresponds at least in regions; and e) applying a low pressure from the negative mould in order to emboss at least one of a shape and a surface structure of the negative mould onto the film fitted with the insert.
