Device, and the conveying means 9 for conveying the object 8 obtained by compression-molding a dose D of plastic from forming means 7 of the forming unit 5, a support means (2) for rotatably supporting the conveying means 9 , equipped with a. To avoid collisions and / or damage during the transfer means 9 and the molding unit 7, unit is connected to the support means 2, a first operation position A relatively near to at least the molding unit 5 second operating position B comprising a, a moving means 3 configured to move the conveying means 9 to and from. In the first operating position A, the conveying means 9, interacts with shaping means 7 for conveying the object 8, in the second operating position Bs, conveying means 9, does not interact with shaping means 7 and spaced from the molding unit 5 as. Movement of the conveying means 9 from the first operation position A to the second operating position B has at least one component facing in the same direction as the tangential component of the rotational motion of the forming unit 5 in the first operating position A .
