1. A transfer system for transporting and for processing profiles, comprising a transportation device for transporting the profile on a transportation path, a first feed table which is displaceable relative to the transportation path and/or to the profile being displaced on the transportation path, and an injection device for producing an injection-molded end, of a further profile portion, of a positioning pin, and/or for connecting the profile to a further profile portion, wherein the transportation device is configured for positioning the profile on the transportation path in a processing position for processing the profile by the injection device, wherein the injection device comprises a mold for receiving and mounting the profile during the injection and for configuring the cavity to be filled during the injection, wherein the mold has at least two contour parts for enclosing the profile in the part to be injection-molded during the injection and for configuring the cavity, and wherein the injection device has a closing unit for opening and closing the contour parts, wherein the closing unit, when moving the first feed table relative to the profile, is configured for keeping the contour parts open until the profile is enclosed by the contour parts, and wherein the transportation device is configured for moving the profile, in the region of the processing position, exclusively parallel to the transportation path, wherein the closing unit and the injection device are assembled so as to be displaceable conjointly with the first feed table, and the first feed table in the direction of the transportation path and/or of the profile is displaceable until the contour parts in the closed state can enclose the profile in the part to be injection-molded, wherein the contour parts are movable by way of a common drive device which is disposed on that side of the first feed table that faces the transportation path, wherein the drive device comprises at least one control ring which is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to at least one entertainment pin, and wherein the processing profiles are door seal profiles for motor vehicles.
