A C-frame press has, in effect, only one post and the stress of mold clamping is accommodated in a cantilever manner by the configuration of the press. C-frame presses are used where considerable access is needed to the mold area, possibly for automatically conveying inserts into the mold area and removing molded parts after molding. 3, record 1, English, - C%2Dframe%20press

Cold press molding is a matched die molding process using low pressure and unheated molds.... The first phase of the process is essentially the same as making a hand layup, sprayup, or rigid thermoplastic product, except that it is done on one set of matched molds that are closed before cure takes place. 1, record 2, English, - cold%20press%20molding

Le moulage à la presse à froid consiste à déposer sur un moule des renforts en fibres de verre [...] et une résine thermodurcissable, polyester le plus souvent, à l'état liquide. Le moule est ensuite fermé par une faible pression, de l'ordre de 4 bars, qui permet l'imprégnation du renfort par la résine. Le durcissement de la résine se produit tandis que cette force est maintenue. 1, record 2, French, - moulage%20%C3%A0%20la%20presse%20%C3%A0%20froid
