The invention relates to a cover element having a housing of a film that is formed and moulded between a front plate and a carrier plate and is used to represent multidimensional structures, the carrier plate being connected on the rear side to a heating plate, characterized in that the housing consists of an annular housing base and an annular housing front, and a circuit-board ring having LEDs and plugs is installed in the housing base.

For processing cost reduction and improvement of efficiency, a no-mold-runner multi-nozzle device, comprising: an injection machine, a multi-nozzle component, a front template, and a no-mold-runner. The multi-nozzle component includes a plurality of nozzles, which is connected to the injection machine. The injection machine is used to inject a mixture of molding material and supercritical fluid into multiple nozzles. The front template is provided with a plurality of first passage holes. The no-mold-runner is provided with a mold cavity and a plurality of second passage holes communicating with the mold cavity. The nozzle correspondingly passes through a plurality of first passage holes and second passage holes and is installed in cooperation. By controlling the opening or closing of the nozzle, the mixed material of the molding material and the supercritical fluid enters the mold cavity or stops entering the mold cavity.

A mold, system and method for manufacturing a part includes injection molding a substrate in a single injection mold and optionally trimming the panel substrate. The substrate can have a first configuration or a second, different configuration. Trimming of the substrate can occur when the substrate has the first configuration to define an aperture in the substrate.
