Abstract (en)

[origin: US2004071808A1] A device for producing shaped bodies comprising at least one extrusion tool (1) for extruding an endless strip of material (15) and at least one form tool (2) used to process the material strip in order to form shaped bodies, especially capsules, in addition to a treatment station (3) which is used to impinge upon the material strip with heat. According to the invention, the material strip undergoes heat treatment at least once between the extrusion tool and the form tool in order to relieve stress.
