PURPOSE: To integrally mold a partial skin molded article by laminating a skin material only on a specified surface area of the molded article a series of processes in a molding cycle. CONSTITUTION: This method for making a partial skin molded article in which only a specified surface area is coated with a skin material includes a skin material heating process in which a specified part corresponding at least to the prescribed surface area of the skin material 5 with its peripheral part clamped is heated at a specified temperature, a skin material press process in which at least a specified part of the heated skin material is pressed between the mold surfaces of a pair of molds 10, 20, and a trimming process in which the skin material, kept in this pressed state, is cut along the periphery of a specified part by a cutter 24, and the excessive skin material is removed from between the molds. Moreover, a mold clamping process in which a specified part of the skin material is held on the mold surface side of the mold corresponding to the prescribed surface area and a molding cavity 8 is formed by closing the molds and a resin molding process in which the cavity is filled with a resin material are provided additionally. |
