ABSTRACT:
In a turret press for moulding glass, a turntable is equipped with a plurality of equally circumferentially spaced mould-receiving stations which move past stationary operating stations comprising at least one glass charging station, at least one glass pressing station and at least one product withdrawing station. The turntable is driven by a Maltese cross mechanism connected to a continuously running motor by a clutch and brake device. Scanners provided for uncoupling and braking the Maltese cross mechanism are disposed at each said operating station to co-operate with actuators of the mould-receiving stations on the turntable. Any one actuator is operative to co-operate with the scanners only when a mould is present at the respective mould-receiving station.
