PROCESS FOR PRODUCING A MOLDED PART

A method of manufacturing a molded part includes inserting melt into a cavity of a first tool part, and the first tool part and a second tool part are moved away from one another during or after the insertion of the melt by moving a mold clamping plate relative to a mold clamping plate such that in the first tool part or in a second tool part an at least partial clearance of a first or second zone of the cavity takes place, and a gap is formed between the first tool part and the second tool part. Melt is further inserted into the cleared area of the cavity, and the gap is bridged by an at least already partially solidified section of the melt. A holding force is transmitted from the second tool part through the partially solidified section of the melt bridging the gap to the first tool part.
