The present invention relates to a 3D printer outputting method for mounting electrical components, the method comprising a step of generating a structure forming unit structures and a step of positioning component objects on the structure. The positions of the component objects can be changed by using a coordinate system. In mounting a component object (20) on a structure (10), a coordinate system (140) is used to check for colliding or overlapping portions of the component object and to determine whether the component object (20) is supported by unit structures (15), and the merits of 3D are used to rearrange the colliding or overlapping portions or portions, that are not supported, into other dimensions. In addition, in order to automatically insert an actual component object (20), the component object is picked up by a well-known pickup device (30), and the time point and position at which a second component object (20′) is to be inserted in the first component object (20) are predetermined.

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a wind turbine blade shell part made of a fibre-reinforced composite structure, including steps of mounting a plurality of fastening devices on a mounting plate to form a root end assembly, the mounting plate comprising one or more first openings for evacuating air; arranging the root end assembly over a mould surface of a mould; arranging an air-tight cover member so as to form a mould cavity; evacuating air from the mould cavity via at least the one or more first openings of the mounting plate; and supplying a polymer into the mould cavity and allowing the polymer to cure so as to form the composite structure. A root end assembly for use in the method is also provided.

A camera module, a molded circuit board assembly, a molded photosensitive assembly and manufacturing method thereof are disclosed. The camera module includes a molded base which is integrally formed with a circuit board through a molding process, wherein a photosensitive element may be electrically connected on the circuit board and at least a portion of a non-photosensitive area portion of the photosensitive element is also connected by the molded base through the molding process. A light window is formed in a central portion of the molded base to provide a light path for the photosensitive element, wherein a cross section of the light window is configured to have a trapezoidal or multi-step trapezoidal shape which has a size increasing from bottom to top to facilitate demoulding and avoiding stray lights.
