Abstract

A method of molding a layer around a body within a mold, in which the body is positioned within a mold cavity defined by opposing mold portions of the mold, to leave a cavity space between the body and the mold portions at least partially surrounding the body. Layer material is injected into the cavity space around the body when the mold portions are in a partially open position. The mold portions are compressed towards each other to a compression molding position to compression mold the layer material around the body.
