A method and system for creating a continuous stream of elements of garments. With a multi-line fusing press: simultaneously and continuously, for each line of a plurality of lines, each line having a corresponding blower, a corresponding guide, and a corresponding feeder: passing a first substrate under the corresponding blower for the line and into the corresponding guide for the line; feeding, using the corresponding feeder for the line, a continuous fusible substrate into the corresponding guide for the line to position the fusible substrate above the first substrate; feeding, via the corresponding guide for the line and into the multi-line fusing press, a combination of the fusible substrate and the first substrate, the fusible substrate positioned above the first substrate; and the multi-line fusing press pressing the combination of the fusible substrate positioned above the continuous first substrate. The first substrate may be compacted by a multi-line compactor.

A subject of the present invention relates to a multilayer (or laminate) film, that can be used in the field of flexible wrapping, comprising at least 2 thin layers of material bonded together by a layer of an adhesive composition based on a styrene block copolymer. It also relates to a lamination process suitable for the manufacture of said film.

A method for producing pant-type articles having a waist-encircling portion and leg-encircling portions. The method includes forming a chassis structure and at least one elastic panel being formed by providing a first web, which is an elastic web including at least one layer of an elastic material. The first web is stretched at least 70% in at least one direction. The stretched first web is bonded while the first web is held in the stretched state to a second web. The second web includes at least one layer of an elastic or non-elastic material, and the bonded first and second webs form an elastic composite web. The elastic composite is relaxed in the at least one direction by at least 4% of the stretched length of the stretched first web. The chassis structure is assembled from chassis components including the stretched and relaxed composite web.

A lamination device that laminates a laminate material on a front surface of a substrate includes a transport unit that transports the substrate in a transport direction, and first and second pressurizing units that pressurize the laminate material disposed on the front surface of the substrate. The second pressurizing unit is movable in the transport direction at a velocity higher than a transportation velocity of the substrate. When the laminate material is laminated on the substrate transported, the first pressurizing unit laminates the laminate material on the substrate from a central portion between an upstream end of the substrate in the transport direction and a downstream end of the substrate in the transport direction toward the upstream side of the transport direction, and the second pressurizing unit laminates the laminate material on the substrate from the central portion of the substrate toward the downstream side of the transport direction.

A process for laminating a polyester film onto a major surface of a metal strip and to a laminated metal strip produced thereby, or a can produced therefrom.

Described herein is a floor panel comprising a base layer comprising: a binder, and a filler having a particle size distribution such that about 6 wt. % to 80 wt. % by weight of the filler passing through a 200 mesh screen.

Provided is a flooring tile manufacturing apparatus includes: a lower sheet supply unit configured to form and supply a lower sheet; a middle sheet supply unit configured to supply a middle sheet joined to an upper side of the lower sheet; a raw material supply unit configured to supply materials having different contents of a filler to the lower sheet supply unit and the middle sheet supply unit; a main roller configured to join the lower sheet and the middle sheet that have been received; a first sheet supply unit configured to supply a print sheet having a color or a pattern to the main roller; a second sheet supply unit configured to supply a transparent sheet to the main roller; and an ultraviolet (UV) coating unit configured to form a UV coating layer on a surface of the transparent sheet.

The present invention is directed to a floor panel that is processed on roll equipment, whereby a decorative design consisting of elongated striations is printed with the elongated striations oriented in an across-machine direction. The decorative design is printed on a print layer and is subsequently laminated to a substrate layer. The laminated flooring material is then cut such that the elongate sides of the panels are cut in the across machine direction. This results in a floor panel with greater dimensional stability on the elongate side.

A device for preparation of double fabric for down products comprises a printing means that can print an adhesive in a predetermined printing pattern on fabric; a drying means that can dry or fix the adhesive; a laminating means that can stack and laminate the fabrics on which an adhesive is printed; and a bonding means that can bond the fabrics with a cured adhesive by pressing with a predetermined pressing means and high-frequency heating to cure the adhesive; wherein said printing pattern and the pressing pattern are the same in pattern (shape), can be overlapped on the basis of the center line and have a difference in size (width) of 20% or less. Consequently, double fabric for down products thus manufactured has an excellent adhesiveness and durability and an aesthetically excellent pattern line with good clearness and finishing quality.

A composite comprising a first layer formed of a transparent or translucent plastic material; a second layer formed of a semi-rigid or rigid plastic material; and a third layer, securely positioned between the first and second layers, formed of a material having reflective properties on at least a side facing the first layer. A method for forming a composite comprising providing a first transparent or translucent plastic material, a second semi-rigid or rigid plastic material, and a third material having reflective properties on at least one side; positioning the first material adjacent the at least one side of the third material having reflective properties and the second material on an opposing side of the foil material; and heating the first material and the second material to a temperature of between about 110 C. and about 130 C. to form a bond between the first material, the second material, and the third material.
