the logo is embedded at the base of the engraved plate the location of the logo is carefully selected so that the logo appears at the base of the palm 13 or elsewhere which does not hinder the function of the elastomer surface 12 in gripping an object alternatively chemical engraving of the metal plate 20 is also possible the engraved plate 20 is fixed to preferably a hydraulically operated pressing machine 16 designed to deliver a specific predetermined force pressure the engraved plate could be heated by suitable means 30 to achieve a temperature of around 50 100 u00b0 c before pressing is done the partially dried supported glove 10 is removed whilst still in a wet gel state and dressed on to a special moulding plate called a flat former 14 the flat former 14 is made of a metal plate with sufficient thickness has five fingers palm and section of arm and called a flat former due to 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.
