The present disclosure relates to methods for making elastomeric laminates that may be used as components of absorbent articles. The elastomeric laminates may include a first substrate, a second substrate, and an elastic material located between the first and second substrates. During assembly of an elastomeric laminate, a beam is rotated to unwind the elastic strands from the beam, wherein the strands may include a spin finish. First bonds are applied to bond discrete lengths of the stretched elastic strands with and between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the discrete first bonds are arranged intermittently along the machine direction. In addition, second bonds are applied between consecutive first bonds to bond the first and second substrates directly to each other, wherein the second bonds extend in the machine direction and may be separated from each other in a cross direction by at least one elastic strand.

A laminator for high-precision solvent-bonding of retardation films is disclosed. The laminator is capable of producing laminates with high orientation repeatability and low in-plane stress which can otherwise create gaps between optimum theoretical performance and that which is physically realizable. Batch-mode laminators are scalable to large area mother-sheets and are suited to high-throughput manufacturing.

The present disclosure relates to a press bonding apparatus for an electrode foil of an all-solid-state secondary battery including an asymmetric rolling press element that may precisely adjust the supply speed and rolling speed while preventing damage to metal foils, thereby improving the uniformity and coating flatness of the electrode foil.

The present invention relates to an optical film laminating system for laminating an optical film on a panel in order to manufacture a display unit wherein a control unit which sets, in accordance with attachment conditions, an optical film laminating mode in respect to the panel to at least one of a first mode in which the panel and the optical film are inputted together between a first roller unit and a second roller unit so that the optical film is laminated on the panel, and a second mode in which the second panel conveying unit holds the panel by suction and conveys the panel and the optical film is inputted between the panel and an attachment roller unit, which is any one of the first roller unit and the second roller unit, so that the optical film is laminated on the panel.

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 separator, an abnormality detection device, and circuitry. The separator is configured to move to be inserted into a gap formed between the two sheets of the two-ply sheet. The abnormality detection device is configured to detect an abnormal state in which the gap larger than a predetermined size is not formed between the two sheets before the separator is inserted into the gap. The circuitry is configured to control movement of the separator based on a result detected by the abnormality detection device.

A combined radiation and functional layer application system includes one or more radiation sources and a commonly located functional layer application unit configured to dispose a functional layer over the surface of a fixed target ahead of the radiation sources during relative motion between the target and the radiation sources/application unit. System and method embodiments include those in which the target is stationary or moving, and embodiments in which the functional layer is applied as a liquid or as a solid laminate. Embodiments relate to application of an oxygen-blocking layer of a printing plate prior to exposure to actinic radiation. Certain solid laminate embodiments include a two-roll system for positioning the laminate for cutting adjacent a trailing edge of the plate.

By means of a method and an apparatus for laminating glass sheets, the effect of the variation of the initial temperature of the glass on the success of the lamination furnace treatment and the variation of the quality of the laminated glass can be eliminated, thus reducing quality costs. In the method, a sandwich structure sheet including glass and laminating film layers is heated in a lamination furnace, after which the heated sandwich structure sheet is conveyed between a pair of press rolls, and before the lamination furnace is measured the temperature of at least one glass sheet comprised in the sandwich structure sheet, and on the basis of that data, the heating effect of the lamination furnace on the sandwich structure sheet is changed. The apparatus comprises, upstream of the lamination furnace, a temperature measuring device for measuring the temperature of the glass sheets.
