Abstract:
1. A method of transferring one or more patterns onto a surface of a fabric-supported elastomeric glove, the method comprising the steps of: forming the fabric-supported elastomeric glove by dipping a fabric support into an elastomeric coating material to form an elastomeric coating on the fabric support; providing a flat former and a hydraulic press machine, the hydraulic press machine being comprised of a lower platen and an attached engraved plate having a predetermined mould; while the elastomeric coating is in an uncured state, dressing the fabric-supported elastomeric glove onto the flat former and placing the dressed glove on the lower platen of the hydraulic press machine; and moulding the elastomeric coating of the dressed glove with the engraved plate by applying pressure to the engraved plate, wherein the moulding causes a transfer of one or more patterns onto the surface of the fabric-supported elastomeric glove, the transferred one or more patterns being uniformly distributed on the elastomeric coating of the fabric-supported elastomeric glove.
