IMD MOLD, INJECTION MOLDING APPARATUS HAVING SUCH AN IMD MOLD AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A FILM-DECORATED PLASTIC PART

摘要

An IMD mold for producing a foil-decorated plastic part contains a half mold facing the foil and a half mold facing away from the foil. The two half molds can be placed on each other with corresponding mold dividing surfaces so as to form a cavity, which is substantially closed off from the outside, therebetween. At least the mold dividing surface of the half mold facing the foil is formed by an inner area surrounding the cavity and an outer area in turn surrounding the inner area. Wherein the mold dividing surface in the outer area lies in an at least substantially flat or one-dimensionally curved mold dividing plane, and wherein the mold dividing surface in the inner area is or can be set back with respect to the mold dividing plane.
