its shape the glove 10 is dressed onto it carefully the dressed glove 10 is then placed on the lower platen 34 of the hydraulic press machine 16 and compressed under the engraved plate 20 to make an impression on the elastomer surface 12 the pressure is controlled so that the elastomer 12 is not damaged in engraving the pattern see fig6 onto the engraved plate 20 care has to be taken to not to have edges too sharp which will cut in to the elastomer surface 12 of the glove 10 and ruin its performance this is achieved in designing phase of pattern the glove 10 with the moulded pattern see fig6 is then removed from the flat former 14 washed dressed onto another former not shown and cured completely in a curing oven having temperature controls and moisture management technology in another embodiment instead of working with latex the former 14 pre dressed with a liner is dipped into a solution not shown of an elastomer vulcanising ingredients after full or partial drying of the solvent the supported glove 10 is embossed with a pattern as described above prior to curing whilst still in the wet gel state or fully uncured state prior to full vulcanisation in an oven in such an instance prior to making the solution of the elastomer the vulcanising agents and other formulation ingredients are either mixed into the solid elastomer in a mill 2 roll mill bambury busco kneader or other type of mill used for milling ingredients into solid rubber a technique well known to those working in the field of solid rubber mixing or they are added to a solution of.
