Abstract

Apparatus for producing moldings from a dry, particulate or granular material such as a ceramic molding composition, comprises a first mold half carried on the base of a press, while a vacuum shooting head, a second mold half and a removal head are carried on a movable carriage supported by a press head of the press. The carriage is displaceable transversely of the pressing direction so that the vacuum shooting head, the second mold half, and the removal head can be successively brought into alignment with the first mold half to allow the molding process to be performed rapidly and continuously without long gaps in the successive pressing stages.
