The present disclosure is directed to a film formulation that resulted in a substantially non-migratory cold seal release film with improved blocking resistance. Specifically, the multilayered biaxially oriented polypropylene film can include a core layer of polypropylene homopolymer; a first outer layer on one side of the core layer that can be suitable for sealing, printing, or coating; and a second outer layer on the opposite side of the core layer that is a blocking resistant layer comprising thermoplastic polymers which reduce blocking tendency.

A molding apparatus that molds a composition on a substrate with a mold includes a mold holding unit configured to hold the mold, a substrate holding unit configured to hold the substrate, a first elastic member configured to apply a first elastic force to the mold holding unit in a direction away from the substrate holding unit, and a control unit configured to cause the mold holding unit to move in the direction away from the substrate holding unit in a case where the control unit determines that an abnormality has occurred.

A laser processing system and a laser processing method that reduce irregularities on a cutting surface caused by a variation in a heat affected zone or a difference in the heat affected zone due to processing by a laser beam. The laser processing system is provided with: a laser processing device that scans a composite material containing reinforced fibers and a resin with a laser beam to process the composite material; and a control device that controls the laser processing device. The control device calculates a scanning angle formed by a fiber direction that is a direction of the reinforced fibers and a scanning direction that is a direction in which the laser beam is caused to scan, calculates a scanning condition of the laser beam on the basis of the calculated scanning angle, and controls scanning of the laser beam on the basis of the calculated scanning condition.

In certain embodiments, a system for making an implant for an eye comprises a printer, a camera, and a computer. The printer prints material onto a target and has a printer head and printer controller. The printer head deposits the material onto the target, and the printer controller moves the printer head to deposit the material onto a specific location of the target. The camera generates an image to monitor the printing of the material. The computer stores a pattern for the implant, which is designed to provide refractive treatment for the eye; sends instructions to the printer controller to move the printer head to print the material onto the target according to the pattern; assesses the image from the camera according to the pattern; and adjusts the instructions in response to the image.

A thermal management system that provides metal mold surface temperature control using cyclic process thermodynamics to enhance plastic material flow and curing conditions making it possible to produce resin rich molded plastic surfaces without micro cracks or fissures to which contaminant particles can adhere or to which dirt can attach.
