An injection molding device and related method includes a mold plate with at least one pocket having at least one discharge opening to discharge melted plastic from the pocket into at least one mold cavity interconnected to the pocket and a nozzle including a housing, which during operation is interconnected to the pocket. Per discharge opening a needle is arranged displaceable in an axial direction in the housing between a closed position and an open position. In the closed position the needle closes the thereto related discharge opening and is thereby preventing melted plastic from flowing from the pocket into the at least one mold cavity. In the open position, the needle releases the discharge opening such that melted plastic flows from the pocket into the at least one mold cavity. Furthermore, a melt channel is discharging into the pocket to supply melted plastic into the pocket.

An insert for an injection-molding nozzle of an injection-molding device, wherein the injection-molding nozzle has a nozzle body which extends in a longitudinal direction and in which at least one melt duct for a flowable compound to be processed is formed along the longitudinal direction between a first end and a second end, wherein the at least one melt duct opens into a mold impression, formed in the injection mold, of the injection-molding device. The insert has a main body which extends along the longitudinal direction. The main body of the insert has a portion which, in the mounted position of the insert in the injection-molding device, is arranged in the region of the second end of the nozzle body, and a second portion which, in the mounted position of the insert in the injection-molding device, is supported on a tool plate of the injection-molding device.
