Abstract
A method of foam-embedding cables, in particular for foam-embedding a steering wheel skeleton which is equipped with cables, comprises the following steps: the cable is positioned in a foaming mold; a portion of the cable, which is not to be embedded in foam, is positioned in a resealable cavity provided in the foaming mold, the cavity being sealed against the ingress of foam; the cavity and the foaming mold are closed; the foaming mold is filled with foam; and the foaming mold and the cavity are opened to remove a product produced. There is also proposed a foaming tool for performing such method.
