Abstract
For the production of a particularly dimensionally stable cable set, the single conductors ( ) of the cable set are initially inserted into a cavity ( ) of a foam tool ( ) 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 ( ) and a bottom half ( ) of the foaming tool ( ) against each other. For this, vacuum channels ( ) are preferably provided, which extend along sides of the cavity ( ).
