An injection-molding method for selectively manufacturing molded parts with and without a breakthrough is disclosed. A molded part with a breakthrough is manufactured by positioning a mold core in a mold cavity, whereas a molded part without breakthrough is manufactured by removing the mold core at least partly from the mold cavity. The mold cavity delimited by a nozzle-side mold platen and an ejector-side mold platen. The mold core is movable relative to at least one of the mold platens, in particularly the nozzle-side mold platen, in an advance direction, where the mold core is closer to the nozzle-side mold platen and an opposite withdrawal direction. At least one protective measure is provided for protecting the inner surface facing the mold cavity of the respective mold platen, in particularly the nozzle-side mold platen, from adverse mechanical effects during movement of the mold core in the advance direction.

The injection-moulding tool of claim 8, wherein the ejector-side mould platen comprises an opening, with the mould core constructed as a movable stamp movably passing through the opening in the advance and withdrawal direction between a rest position and an operating position, wherein in the operating position attained by moving the mould core from the rest position in the advance direction, the mould core projects into the mould cavity without obstructing an area of the mould cavity corresponding to the breakthrough, and wherein in the rest position attained by moving the mould core from the operating position in the withdrawal direction, the mould core does not project into the mould cavity at all or only far enough so as to prevent formation of the breakthrough in the display panel. 10. The injection-moulding tool of claim 8, further comprising a damping element weakening an impact of the mould core on the inner side of one of the nozzle-side mould platen and the ejector-side mould platen during movement in the advance direction. 11.
