ABSTRACT:
A system and method for removing wrinkles from the covering material of seats for automobiles and other vehicles. The invention may be implemented in a seat dewrinkling oven that includes front and rear heaters that conform to the shape of the seat being heated. In particular, a front heater may be employed that includes a vertically oriented portion for directing heat at the vertically oriented back portion of a front seat surface and a horizontally oriented portion for directing heat at the horizontally oriented bottom portion of the seat front surface. Preferably medium wavelength infrared heating elements are employed in the heaters to provide better heat penetration and dewrinkling.
