Abstract: A carpet molding system includes a support structure having a receiving end and an output end. Two ovens and two receiving systems are coupled to the support structure. One receiving system receives an under-pad material through the receiving end and guides the under-pad material through one oven and through the output end. The other receiving system receives a carpet material through the receiving end and guides the carpet material through the other oven and through the output end.
