A method for manufacturing the cushioning elements may include uti¬ lizing a die (310) with a plurality of die elements (312) positioned in a particular arrangement. A polymer material, which may be a poly¬ mer foam material is located between the die (310) and an extractor (320). The polymer material is compressed between the die (310) and the extractor (320), and the die elements (312) cut the polymer ma¬ terial to form a plurality of pad components, which are arranged like the die elements (312). The die (310) and the extractor (320) are sep¬ arated, and the pad components are secured to the extractor (320) in the arrangement of the die elements (312). Additionally, the pad com¬ ponents are bonded to at least one material layer such that the pad components remain in the arrangement of the die elements. |
