Abstract

For the production of a particularly dimensionally stable cable set, the single conductors (22) of the cable set are initially inserted into a cavity (8) of a foam tool (2) and a foaming material is subsequently filled in. To dispense with involved and expensive hydraulic equipment, a vacuum is generated to press a top half (6) and a bottom half (4) of the foaming tool (2) against each other. For this, vacuum channels (6) are preferably provided, which extend along sides of the cavity (8).
