Abstract: A pressing tool is provided for producing fiber composite components, including a first tool part and a second tool part moveable relative to the first tool part. In the closed state of the pressing tool, the two tool parts form a shaping cavity for accommodating a fiber semi-finished product to be shaped and each have a tool surface delimiting the cavity. In addition, at least one of the tool surfaces has at least two adjacent flat sections inclined toward each other which are connected to each other by way of a curved transition section. The curved transition section has at least one groove-shaped recess facing the cavity.

Abstract: A method is provided for producing a mold for producing a fiber composite component having at least one fiber-containing material and at least one matrix material. The mold includes at least one tool upper mold part, a tool lower mold part, and a gap lying between the upper part and the lower part. The method determines an expected thickness of the fiber-containing material in at least one region of the fiber-containing material, and adapts a width of the gap of the mold according to the expected thickness of the fiber-containing material in the corresponding region of the gap.
