[0050] (7) The carpet is baked and heated, and then cooled and formed to obtain a semi-finished carpet fabric layer (appearance fabric layer 1) with a PET skeleton layer 7.

[0051] (8) Place the semi-finished carpet on the welding assembly tooling, lay out the corresponding wear-resistant foot pads 3 and foot pad buckle bases 4 in the corresponding positions, start the corresponding equipment, and complete the welding and installation.

[0052] (9) The carpet is placed on a water jet cutting bracket for water jet cutting of the edge material to obtain a semi-finished carpet fabric.
