According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method of labeling a plurality of products includes coating a pressure sensitive adhesive to a roll of face stock, the roll of face stock configured to be converted to a plurality of individual labels aligned in a single lane; singulating an individual label from the roll of face stock; and applying the individual label to a product of the plurality of products, wherein the coating, singulating and applying are conducted sequentially in a single continuous operation with a single continuous web of material.

A manufacturing method of a thermoplastic continuous-discontinuous fiber composite sheet is provided, including providing a thermoplastic composite including a continuous fiber and a first thermoplastic resin. A mechanical treatment is performed on the thermoplastic composite to form a plurality of fragments such that the continuous fiber is changed into a discontinuous fiber. At least one thermoplastic discontinuous fiber aggregate layer is formed using the plurality of fragments as a raw material. The at least one thermoplastic discontinuous fiber aggregate layer is thermally compressed with at least one thermoplastic continuous fiber layer.

Provided are a method for manufacturing a Figure-T shaped metal part using a metal plate or a metal rod split by a method for splitting longitudinally an end part of the metal plate or the metal rod having a rectangular, polygonal, or elliptical shape, in which the length of incision in the split portion can be freely adjusted and smooth split face can be formed; a Figure-T shaped metal part manufactured by such method. The method for splitting is characterized by the process comprising the steps of securing a metal plate by pinching both sides thereof with a clamping device, or securing a metal rod by pinching at least two opposite-facing portions on the periphery thereof with a clamping device; splitting longitudinally by slitting or cleaving the metal plate, or the metal rod, by pressing a slitting punch or a cleaving punch against the face of one end of the metal plate, or the metal rod; and advancing the splitting further by repeating the same operation of pressing the same punch stated above against the cleft of the splitting; and is characterized further in that, in each time of the press-splitting operation, the position of the clamping device on at least one side is moved in advance of the next pressing by a stroke corresponding to the distance from one end of the metal plate, or the metal rod, to the distal end of a split-desired portion.

A method of continuously manufacturing a display unit according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, which bonds sheet pieces of a polarizing film formed by cutting a roll-type optical film into sheet pieces having a predetermined sheet pieces to a panel to manufacture the display unit, continuously carries an optical film, detects a defect of the optical film, extracts a defective area based on information on the detected defect, forms a slit line in a horizontal direction with respect to a carrying direction of the optical film based on the defective area, determines whether the sheet piece of the polarizing film divided by the slit line is a defective sheet piece or a normal sheet piece, peels the sheet piece determined as a normal sheet piece from a release film, and bonds the normal sheet piece and a panel.

A method and system for fabricating a part includes sectionalizing a computer-generated representation of a part into strata having an order, forming layers corresponding to the strata from sheet material, stacking at least two of the layers in the order, and joining the layers together. The method and system are suitable for producing a phase-change material container for a thermal energy harvesting device, for example.

A method is provided for producing a separator by cutting a laminated porous film. The laminated porous film includes a porous base material layer containing polyolefin as a main component and a filler layer containing inorganic particles as a main component. The filler layer is provided on one surface of the porous base material layer; and a resin layer containing resin particles as a main component is provided on the other surface of the porous base material layer. The method includes a step of cutting, using a slit blade, the laminated porous film from the one surface on which the filler layer is provided.

This disclosure relates generally to an assembly and process for preparing affixing tape. The disclosure also relates to an affixing assembly and process using the prepared tape. The tape can be used, for example, to affix plastic items to mailing pieces. The assemblies and processes disclosed herein provide for added throughput, less down time, higher quality of parts and production control.

A composite switchable pane array, having: a first pane; a second pane, and an intermediate layer arranged therebetween, wherein the intermediate layer has at least one first thermoplastic polymer film and one second thermoplastic polymer film, and an SPD film arranged therebetween; and an edge sealing arranged in the outer edge region of the intermediate layer, containing a polyimide (PI) and/or polyisobutylene (FIB).

A panel including a surface sheet formed from a first material, and a body layer to which the surface sheet is adhered generally parallel to the body layer, wherein the body layer has a thickness greater than a thickness of the surface sheet, the body layer has a density less than a density of the surface sheet, and wherein the panel includes a side edge portion adhered along at least one edge of the panel.

The present invention is generally concerned with the use of a sheet lamination method to produce sheet-form materials with controlled cellular architecture, which may be used as vibration damping and/or sound attenuation materials. The materials described herein can exhibit superior vibration damping and/or sound attenuation properties compared to existing materials available in the industry. The method for the present invention involves the successive lamination of a series of films of polymer or composite material in which a plurality of apertures has been created. In such embodiments, the apertures can be of varying sizes in successive films and be positioned in such a manner that a plurality of three-dimensional cells are created in the final sheet-form material.
