Abstract

A method for laminating a substrate component to a thermally deformable decorative layer in a tool in which, for laminating, the decorative layer is held so as to be pre-tensioned in a holding device or in the tool and is placed on a substrate layer that rests on the tool, where prior to placing the decorative layer on the substrate component the second side of a molding contour piece that can be moved relative to the decorative layer is made to contact the pre-heated decorative layer, and by way of a further relative movement of the decorative layer relative to the holding device deforms the decorative layer in one section.
