A sheet separation device separates a non-bonding portion of a two-ply sheet in which two sheets are overlapped and bonded together at a bonding portion of the two-ply sheet. The sheet separation device includes a winding roller and a gripper. The winding roller rotates and winds the two-ply sheet to separate the two-ply sheet. The gripper is disposed in the winding roller and configured to grip a gripped portion of the two-ply sheet at one end of the two-ply sheet without abutting a tip of the gripped portion at the one end of the two-ply sheet on a member.

A method for manufacturing pouches made of at least partly thermoplastic material, including the steps of superimposing at least two webs of at least partly thermoplastic material, joining the webs at adhesion regions or lines, and cutting the webs at cutting regions or lines in order to provide pouches. In a condition in which the webs are superimposed, the method further includes the step of mutually aligning the webs by causing the elongation of at least one of the two webs via the application of heat.

Disclosed are an adhesive layer forming apparatus and a display device manufacturing system including the same. The adhesive layer forming apparatus includes a first support chuck configured to move a first panel along a panel movement path in a first direction, a second support chuck provided side by side with the first support chuck in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction and configured to move a second panel along a panel movement path, and a first gantry configured to move a first head, which faces the first support chuck and the second support chuck, in the second direction on the first support chuck and the second support chuck and forms an adhesive layer on any one of the first panel and the second panel by jetting.

Provided is a method for producing a decorative material, including: a preparation step of preparing sheet printed matters each including a substrate and a picture layer on one surface of the substrate and a roll of a transparent resin film having a first surface and a second surface opposing to each other, the first surface having a pattern of protrusions and depressions, the second surface having a pattern of protrusions and depressions that is shallower than the pattern of protrusions and depressions on the first surface; an application step of winding off the transparent resin film from the roll of a transparent resin film and applying an adhesive to the second surface of the transparent resin film; and a bonding step of bonding the second surface of the transparent resin film and the picture layer of each of the sheet printed matters with the adhesive.

Disclosed is a lamination system. A lamination system, which bonds a panel and a bonding target panel to from a panel assembly, according to one embodiment of the present invention may include a transfer which moves along a transfer shuttle and supports any one among the panel, the bonding target panel, and the panel assembly, a bonding chamber which is provided parallel to the transfer shuttle and bonds the panel and the bonding target panel, and a first robot which transfers any one among the panel, the bonding target panel, and the panel assembly between the transfer and the bonding chamber.

A lamination device that laminates a plurality of types of workpieces includes supply mechanisms that supply the workpiece to each of supply positions, a movement mechanism including a stator of a linear motor having a predetermined traveling track and a mover of a linear motor that is movable between a plurality of the supply positions along a traveling track, and a controller that controls at least the mover. The mover includes a holding unit that holds the workpiece supplied to the supply positions, and a lamination stage for lamination the workpiece. The controller corrects a relative position of the workpiece with respect to the lamination stage and controls the mover to laminate the workpiece whose relative position is corrected on the lamination stage while the holding unit holds the workpiece supplied to the supply positions and moves to and stops at a next one of the supply positions.

An assembly for forming a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a layup tool including a main body extending along a longitudinal axis and a flange extending radially from the main body, the flange defining an edge face slopes towards the main body to an axial face. At least one compression tool has a tool body having a first tool section and a second tool section extending transversely from the first tool section. The first tool section is translatable along a retention member in a first direction substantially perpendicular to the edge face such that relative movement causes the second tool section to apply a first compressive force on a composite article trapped between the axial face of the flange and the second tool section. A method of forming a gas turbine engine component is also disclosed.

In an embodiment, an energy-absorbing device can comprise: a polymer reinforcement structure, wherein the polymer reinforcement structure comprises a polymer matrix and chopped fibers; and a shell comprising 2 walls extending from a back and forming a shell channel, wherein the shell comprises continuous fibers and a resin matrix; wherein the polymer reinforcement structure is located in the shell channel.
