Abstract: A method of forming a part with a solid urethane elastomer skin is provided, wherein the mold is moved by a mold manipulation tool to present differently oriented surfaces of the mold in a horizontal orientation when the urethane elastomer is sprayed on each of the differently oriented surfaces. A multi-axis robot is provided with a spray head that sprays the urethane elastomer onto a mold surface. A mold manipulator moves the mold that has a plurality of differently oriented mold surfaces so that the surface to be sprayed is held in a horizontal orientation as they are coated with the urethane elastomer and for a predetermined time period after spray coating until the urethane elastomer sets up.

Abstract: A method for forming an integrated trim plate in a single processing step. An appliqué section is reversibly securing to the lower section of a mold. A layer of thermoplastic covering is applied onto and over the appliqué section and lower section of the mold. A layer of foam is then injected between the thermoplastic covering and a substrate used to secure the integrated trim plate within a structure such as an automobile frame. The appliqué section may be magnetically secured to the lower section of the mold or may be physically secured within a forming section of the lower section.

Abstract translation: 一种用于在单个加工步骤中形成集成装饰板的方法。 贴布部分可逆地固定在模具的下部。 将一层热塑性覆盖物涂覆在模具的贴布部分和下部上面。 然后将一层泡沫塑料注入到热塑性覆盖层和用于将集成的装饰板固定在诸如汽车框架的结构内的基板之间。 贴布部分可以磁性地固定到模具的下部，或者可以物理地固定在下部的成形部分内。
