Compression Molded Foam - Max mold depth?

Whats the wall thickness? Foam laminated?

If you are laminating the sheet foam before press (I would assume its EVA or PE foam) than make sure you use a 4 way stretch knit, not a woven. Wovens and nonwovens (PUs) typically have a lot less stretch when compressed (some nonwovens can have a knit substrate or backer allowing more stretch). THis will cause your part to have less definition and easier delamination.

Keep in mind the part will be warm once its pressed - depending on the overall size and wall thickenss it may need to go into a form to keep shape while it cools.

If you are laminating sheet foam you can do a “cold” compression (laminated foam is still headed before being pressed) - typically less definition
If you are using raw foam in a substrate/pellet form you can do a “hot” compression (“injected”) - typcially more definition
