PURPOSE:To obtain efficiently the titled material for an instrument panel or the like by a method wherein a heated skin material is sucked for plastic deformation, a pattern is formed simultaneously on the surface of the skin material, foaming resin is filled thereafter on the back surface thereof, an insert plate is fitted on the resin, and then foam molding is performed. CONSTITUTION:A heated skin material 2 is made to contact with the air-permeable female die 10 of a mold 9 and sucked for plastic deformation by a suction apparatus, while a pattern is formed simultaneously on the surface of said material by pattern-forming protrusions formed on the wall surface 10'' of the cavity 10' inside the female die 10. Thereafter foaming resin 7 is filled on the back surface of the skin material 2 held in the deformed state, and a male die 11, which is fitted with an insert plate 6, is clamped down on the female die 10. Foam molding is then performed to mold the insert plate 6, the foaming resin 7 and the skin material 2 into one body, whereby the desired internal trim material is obtained. |
