Abstract:
A method of laminating a surface of a flexible material (103) to a surface of a rigid, curved material (101). The method includes pressing an area of the surface (107) of the flexible material into the surface (105) of the rigid, curved material with a holder to create a contact area while the flexible material is conformed to the holder, which has a curvature greater than a curvature of the rigid, curved material surface; and changing the contact area between the surface of the flexible material and the surface of the rigid, curved material while maintaining pressure on the contact area until the surface of the flexible material and the surface of the rigid curved material are laminated.
