<p>A tool device (34) with projections (42,52,112,212,312,412,512) and valley floors (44,99,113,213,313,413,513) used in profiling material such as foam. The projections having distal recesses (115,285,385,485) surrounded by rims (76,116,276,376,476) to form flat topped products. A profiler has opposing tooling devices with one or more (e.g., stacked) tool devices and a cutter to form, for example, mirror image flat top output products including single or multi-zoned flat top surface regions with flat surface protuberances. Projections of one tooling device extend within a valley floor region surrounded by a projection of an opposing tooling device or within recesses formed in, for example, an opposing side wall of a projection of the opposing tooling device or projections designed to extend within valley floor regions between adjacent rows of projections on an opposing tooling device, inclusive of conformingly shaped valley floor regions having a common interior configuration to the exterior configuration of an opposing projection to be received.</p> |
