  • Publication number: 20260295911
    Abstract: A method for producing a closure cap for a container includes providing an injection molding tool where a casing tool engages over a core tool. The core tool and the casing tool form a volume region when the injection molding tool is closed. The core tool has an axial end surface in which a recess is formed. The casing tool has a projection with a gate opening. The axial end surface and the inner axial end surface are arranged opposite each other. An insert element is positioned between the axial end surface and the inner axial end surface. The injection molding tool is closed so that the projection at least partially penetrates into the recess, thereby deforming the insert element. The volume region is filled with a molten plastic through the gate opening. The insert element is thereby pressed against the axial end surface by the molten plastic.
