A demolding device for use in an imprint machine, in which machine a foil is intermittently passed in a feed direction over a press region where a stamp is pressed against the foil for imprinting a surface pattern. The demolding device includes a carrier, a pressing roller mounted in the carrier, and a demolding roller mounted parallel to the pressing roller in the carrier, wherein the carrier is configured to slide over the press region against the feed direction while rolling the foil under the pressing roller and over the demolding roller for detaching the foil from the stamp after imprinting of the pattern.

A method for beautifying a balsa wood model aircraft with a thermal shrink covering film, so that the balsa wood model aircraft with a thermal shrink covering film is obtained. This method makes a model aircraft colorful, reduces labor costs, improves the beautifying and painting effect of the model aircraft, and also improves the pneumatic performance of the model aircraft.

Methods for manufacturing a turbomachine composite part, such as a fan blade, are provided. The composite part has a fibrous structure with a three-dimensional fibrous preform coated with a surface fibrous web, and which is embedded in a polymer matrix The methods include: forming the surface web in a cavity of a mold in order to shape it, wetting and forming the preform on the surface web in order to shape it, and closing the mold, drying the fibrous structure, and injecting thermosetting resin into the mold in order to form said polymer matrix. The surface web is wetted before and/or during the forming thereof.

A semipermeable ultrathin polymer membrane is a microfluidic device that comprises a substantially optically transparent polymer film having a surface area to thickness ratio of at least 1,000,000:1, and an array of precisely spatially ordered pores of a user-selected diameter defined therethrough. Such membranes can be fabricated by providing a mold having a patterned array of nanoholes femtosecond laser ablated in a surface thereof; applying a first polymer solution onto the mold surface so that the first polymer solution infiltrates the nanoholes; allowing the first polymer solution to dry and form a replica of the mold having a plurality of freestanding nanoneedles extending from a surface of the replica; removing the replica from the mold; coating the replica surface with a second polymer solution; drying the second polymer solution to form a porous polymer film; and dissolving the replica in a solvent to release the film from the replica as a semipermeable ultrathin polymer membrane. Also disclosed are multi-chambered microfluidic devices for studying cell biology in vitro that incorporate one or more such semipermeable ultrathin polymer membranes.

A method of manufacturing a three dimensional article includes forming the three-dimensional article with three-dimensional printing, processing the three-dimensional article to remove support material ink, illuminating the three-dimensional article with electromagnetic radiation, inspecting the three dimensional article for photoluminescence that is responsive to the illumination, and verifying whether the support material has been sufficiently removed based upon the inspection. The support material ink includes a phosphor component that phosphorescently emits light in response to the illumination.

The invention proposes a container further extending the shelf life of foods, particularly berries, by including an active agent having antifungal capability into the container surface so that when the fruit is packaged inside the container it is permanently exerted an antifungal effect over the surface, which is the place on the longer determinants occurs, but also contributing to preserve the general environment. Also it proposes a preparation process and its use.

A bonded structure is made of a first member and a second member which are bonded to each other. At least one bore having an opening is formed in a surface of the first member, and the second member is filled in the bore of the first member. The bore is defined by a diameter-increasing portion whose opening size increases in a depth direction from a surface side toward a bottom of the first member, and a first diameter-decreasing portion whose opening size decreases in the depth direction from the surface side toward the bottom. The diameter-increasing portion is formed on the surface side, and the first diameter-decreasing portion is formed on a bottom side.

A three-dimensional printer includes: a machine mainframe, formed with a carrying plane; a three-dimensional printing module, installed on the machine mainframe, and used for forming a three-dimensional object on the carrying plane according to a three-dimensional model data; and a color spraying nozzle module, installed on the machine mainframe and used for coloring a surface of the three-dimensional object according to the three-dimensional model data, wherein the color spraying nozzle module includes at least one color spraying nozzle and at least one screen member, the color spraying nozzle is formed with at least one nozzle hole, the screen member is formed with at least one screen hole, the screen hole is arranged corresponding to the nozzle hole, and the area of the screen hole is smaller than the area of the nozzle hole thereby enabling the color spraying nozzle module to more efficiently color the three-dimensional object.
