Abstract

The invention relates to a device (10) for producing objects from a solidifying molding compound, comprising: a feed region (12) with at least one sprue point (32) for supplying the molding compound, and a mold insert (18), which at least in part bounds a cavity (36) in which the molding compound supplied through the sprue point (32) can be received, wherein the cavity (36) has at least one object molding region (38), which molds the object to be produced, and at least one distribution region (40), which is designed to guide the supplied molding compound to the object is molding region (38). The device further comprises at least one pusher device (44), which is designed in a first position to allow a connection of the object molding region (38) and the distribution region (40), and in a second position to separate the object molding region (38) and the distribution region (40) from one another, wherein the mold insert (18) can be moved along a movement axis (B) relative to the feed region (12), and wherein the pusher device (44) can be actuated according to the relative movement.
