Abstract:
1. An apparatus for the moulding of articles made of plastic material with two components comprising: a rotating central element, which bears a first mould and a second mould set opposite to one another; a first countermould and a second countermould, which are set on opposite sides with respect to the rotating central element and can be translated with respect thereto; means for closing said first and second countermoulds with respect to said first and second moulds to define respective moulding cavities; means for injection of a plastic material within said first and second cavities; means for compression of the plastic material in at least one of said first and second cavities, respectively, for the moulding of said first component and the overmoulding of said second component, in which said moulds and said countermoulds define respective facing surfaces; and sensor means located on said facing surfaces for measuring parameters indicating the mutual parallelism between said facing surfaces and for controlling said closing means according to the parameters measured.
