Zusammenfassung:A process for forming a cushion layer of a preselected thickness on an inside of a prosthetic liner body is provided and includes the steps of introducing the liner body into a mold cavity; disposing a sufficient amount of cushioning material into the inside of the liner and directing a mandrel into the inside of the liner body.
