Process and apparatus for metering a plasticized formulation, wherein a formulation comprising at least one thermoplastic polymer is plasticized, tempered, forced through a filling orifice and emerges as a strand that is cut off after a predetermined quantity of formulation has been dispensed. The process and apparatus are in particular useful for making formulation-filled hollow forms. La présente invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant de mesurer une formulation plastifiée, une formulation comprenant au moins un polymère thermoplastique étant plastifiée, trempée, forcée à travers un orifice de remplissage et émergeant en un fil qui est coupé après distribution d'une quantité prédéfinie de formulation. Le procédé et l'appareil sont utiles, en particulier, pour réaliser des formes creuses remplies de la formulation.
