Method for manufacturing floor panels, where the floor panels include a carrier on the basis of thermoplastic material and a top layer provided on the carrier; and where the method further includes at least the steps of strewing the thermoplastic material and consolidating the strewn thermoplastic material; where the thermoplastic material is strewn as a dry-blend.

A method to produce a wear resistant foil, including providing a first foil including a first thermoplastic material, applying wear resistant particles on the first foil, applying a second foil including a second thermoplastic material on the first foil, and adhering the first foil and the second foil to each other to form a wear resistant foil.

Methods of manufacturing a conveyor belt (126) include applying a rubber composition (114) to a first side of fabric reinforcement (112) and scattering productive thermoplastic elastomer pellets (106) onto a second side of the fabric reinforcement to produce an uncured belt structure (120). The uncured belt structure (120) is continuous fed into a double belt press (116) to press the productive thermoplastic elastomer pellets (106) together with the fabric reinforcement (112) to produce an uncured belt (128). Uncured belt (128) is then heated in the double belt press (116) to a temperature of at least 300 F. and maintained in the double belt press (116) under a pressure of at least 12 psi and a temperature of at least 300 C. for a residence time of at least 20 minutes to produce a cured conveyor belt (130), which is continuously withdrawn from the double belt press (116).

A method for producing a structural component for a vehicle body, the method includes forming a flat carrier material made of a metal, a thermoplastic material and/or a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic material to give a three-dimensional component, and providing a supporting material made of a thermoplastic material, such that the carrier material and the supporting material form an integral material composite. The material composite made up of the carrier material and the supporting material is produced before the carrier material is formed. The material composite is heated before the forming in order to make forming of the thermoplastic material possible. A rib structure is impressed into the supporting material during the forming of the material composite, and the temperature of the three-dimensional component having the rib structure is controlled, it preferably being cooled.

The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a fiber reinforced resin material, the method including an opening step of opening an elongated fiber bundle to be widened in a width direction thereof to be put into a flat state; and a heat setting step of heat-setting the opened fiber bundle in the flat state by heating. In addition, the present invention provides an apparatus for manufacturing a fiber reinforced resin material containing a plurality of fiber bundles and a resin, the apparatus including an opening section that opens an elongated fiber bundle to be widened in a width direction thereof to be put into a flat state; and a heat setting section that heat-sets the opened fiber bundle in the flat state by heating.

A system for manufacturing waterproofing membranes, including: a laminating machine; a textile belt moveable through the laminating machine; and a pair of edge strips positioned adjacent to opposite sides of the textile belt. A first polymer is unrolled onto the textile belt and positioned between a pair of edge strips positioned adjacent to opposite sides of the textile belt and then moved through the laminating machine to heat and cure the first polymer into a first waterproofing membrane. The edge strips are preferably endless loops of material that pass continuously through the laminating machine. A second polymer can also be unrolled onto an opposite side of the textile belt such that two different waterproofing membranes can be manufactured simultaneously.

A fiber-reinforced resin material laminate 1 is provided with the following: a fiber-reinforced resin material 2 in which a fiber bundle group formed of a plurality of fiber bundles is impregnated with a matrix resin composition; and a first carrier sheet 3 and a second carrier sheet 4 which form a pair and sandwich the fiber-reinforced resin material 2 therebetween, with a mark 5 being provided on a surface 4a of the second carrier sheet 4. In a manufacturing method for the fiber-reinforced resin material laminate 1, during an impregnation step, the fiber-reinforced resin material 2 is formed in a state of being sandwiched between the first carrier sheet 3 and the second carrier sheet 4, and thereafter, the mark 5 is provided by marking the surface 4a of the second carrier sheet 4.
