Methods and a device are provided for conditioning, in particular smoothing, a data carrier constructed as a card-like and multi-layer laminate, in particular an RFID or NFC ticket, for a subsequent application of data, in particular by printing thereon. A simultaneous heating of the data carrier and application of pressure to a first main surface of the card-like data carrier takes place while the second main surface opposite the first main surface is in contact with an at least substantially flat support surface, to cause a reduction or elimination of a curvature of the data carrier which may have existed previously.

A lapping apparatus includes a processing part and a fixing part. The processing part is provided for a target object to be seated and polishes a lower surface of the target object seated as it rotates. The fixing part is provided for pressing the seated target object against the processing part so that the lower surface of the target object is fixed in a state of being seated on the processing part. The fixing part rotates relative to the processing part along with the target object by shear force applied to the target object from the processing part so that the processing of the lower surface of the target object is made when the processing part rotates while the fixing part fixes the target object, and the location axes of the fixing part and the processing part do not match.

An apparatus for manufacturing a display device includes a moving part including a belt that circulates, a roller that circulates the belt, and at least one meandering prevention portion that moves in a first direction parallel to a direction of a rotation shaft of the roller and prevents meandering of the belt, and a polishing head disposed corresponding to the moving part, the polishing head polishing a surface of a base material disposed on a first surface of the belt. A part of the at least one meandering prevention portion faces a second surface of the belt, the second surface being a side surface of the belt.

A method of installing a binder-based overlay system may include contacting a layer of geotextile fabric to a surface of a substrate and applying a primer layer to a surface of the geotextile fabric. Two or more binder layers including infill particles may be applied over the primer layer. A resurfacer layer followed by one or more color layers may be applied over the two or more binder layers. The primer layer, one or more binder layers, resurfacer layer, and two or more color layers may cure upon application to form a monolithic layer upon the substrate.

A method for producing a wood sheet that is between 0.6 and 0.8 mm thick, includes covering both surfaces with a matte crystal clear polyester film that is between 70 and 80 micrometres thick joined by thermopressing to the wood sheet. The wood sheet is sanded between the method steps to a thickness ranging from 0.6 to 0.8 mm, a matte polyester film with a thickness ranging from 70 to 80 micrometres is applied, they are then thermopressed at a controlled temperature and speed, and the wood sheet covered with the plastic material film is cold-pressed. The present invention also relates to a translucent wood sheet which allows illumination lamps having unique configurations to be produced.

A mirrored apparatus includes a substrate having a surface and including an additive manufactured aluminum and about 2 to about 30 weight % (wt. %) silicon. The mirrored apparatus also includes a finish layer arranged directly on the surface of the substrate. The finish layer includes a polished surface opposite the substrate. The mirrored apparatus further includes a reflective layer arranged on the polished surface of the finish layer.

Novel polyamide-metal laminates which have desirable hydrolysis resistance are provided. The laminates comprise (A) a metal, (B) a tie layer, and (C) a polyamide composition. The tie layer is formed from a composition containing (B1) a polymer containing a comonomer having at least two adjacent carboxylic acid groups and (B2) an amino-silane containing a primary amine and at least one hydroxyl group.

A method of manufacturing a display device includes preparing a window member including a first window including a display area, and a second window adjacent to a first side surface of the first window, forming a protective member on an upper surface of the window member by forming a preliminary protective layer on a first upper surface of the first window and on a second upper surface of the second window, and pre-curing the preliminary protective layer, and separating the second window from the first side surface.

A waveguide includes an input area, a multi-layered substrate, and an output area. The multi-layered substrate includes a plurality of layers of at least a substrate and at least one partially reflective layers. The input area in-couples light in a first band into the waveguide. The one or more partially reflective layers are partially reflective to light in the first band. Each of the one or more partially reflective layers are located between respective layers of the plurality of layers of the substrate. The output area out-couples light from the waveguide. The pupil replication density of the out-coupled light is based in part on a number of the one or more partially reflective layers and respective locations of the one or more partially reflective layers in the waveguide.

An apparatus for manufacturing a display device includes a moving part including a belt that circulates, a roller that circulates the belt, and at least one meandering prevention portion that moves in a first direction parallel to a direction of a rotation shaft of the roller and prevents meandering of the belt, and a polishing head disposed corresponding to the moving part, the polishing head polishing a surface of a base material disposed on a first surface of the belt. A part of the at least one meandering prevention portion faces a second surface of the belt, the second surface being a side surface of the belt.
