The invention proposes a method for manufacturing a grille for a cascade type thrust reverser, of a jet engine, said method including the following steps: a) manufacturing a first component comprising long fibres, pre-impregnated by a thermoplastic or thermosetting resin; b) manufacturing, together with step a), a series of second components each including discontinuous fibres, pre-impregnated by a thermoplastic or thermosetting resin, step b) being carried out such that the second components are, on the one hand, arranged to transversally with respect to a longitudinal direction of the first component on at least one side of the first component and, on the other hand, spaced from one another according to this longitudinal direction, so as to form a comb-shaped structure, wherein the second components are consolidated to the first component.

The present invention is to improve the quality and appearance of a second molded product such as a secondary molded product obtained by further resin-molding a first molded product such as a primary molded product, for example. The present invention is a method for manufacturing a resin molded product in which a second molded product is obtained by further performing resin molding on a resin-molded first molded product using a first mold with a cavity formed and a second mold facing the first mold, the method including a disposing step of disposing the first molded product in the cavity and disposing a resin material on the first molded product, and a mold clamping step of clamping the first mold and the second mold after the disposing step.

A method of making a composite laminate includes dequilling chicken feathers to form chicken feather fibers (CFFs). The CFFs and Ceiba Pentandra bark fibers (CPFs) are milled to form milled CFFs and milled CPFs so that the milled CFFs have a length of smaller than 200 microns and the milled CPFs have a length of smaller than 600 microns. The CFFs are treated with an amine compatibilizer to esterify carboxy groups present on keratin in the CFFs. A mixture of an epoxy resin, the milled CFFs, and the milled CPFs is solution cast to form an epoxy composite. A first carbon fabric layer and a second carbon fabric layer are placed on a front side and a backside, respectively, of the epoxy composite to form an epoxy laminate precursor. The epoxy laminate precursor is compression molded to cure the epoxy laminate precursor to form the composite laminate.

An apparatus for manufacturing a pipe for a cowl crossbar, which is disposed inside a vehicle body in a lateral direction. The apparatus includes a first extruder to receive a pipe material made of polypropylene (PP) and to extrude the pipe material made of PP; a second extruder to receive the pipe material made of PP extruded from the first extruder and a pipe material made of long glass fiber (LGF), and to extrude a pipe material made of PP and LGF; a first compression molding machine to compress the pipe material made of PP and LGF extruded from the second extruder and to form a first pipe semi-finished product; and a second compression molding machine to compress the pipe material made of PP and LGF extruded from the second extruder and to form a second pipe semi-finished product.

A template manufacturing method includes preparing a structure including a first substrate and a stacked body that is provided on the first substrate, the stacked body including a first lower layer including a first material, a first upper layer provided on the first lower layer including a second material different from the first material, and a first cover layer provided on a first cover region of the first upper layer and including a third material different from the second material.

A method for manufacturing a phosphor sheet is provided. In the method, a particulate phosphor and a particulate transparent medium are mixed to a first light transmissive resin in a liquid state. The first light transmissive resin containing the phosphor and the transparent medium in the liquid state is supplied into a lower mold of a mold, and the mold is closed. The first light transmissive resin containing the phosphor and the transparent medium in the liquid state is changed to a solid state having a predetermined thickness by applying a heat and a pressure to the first light transmissive resin containing the phosphor and the transparent medium in the liquid state.

The invention relates to a method for the production of a blank of a ceramic material, wherein a first ceramic material and then a second ceramic material of different compositions are filled into a mold and wherein the materials are pressed and after pressing are sintered. Thereby, a layer of the first ceramic material is filled into the mold, a first open cavity is formed in the layer, the second ceramic material is filled into the first open cavity and the materials are pressed together and are then heat-treated. Both the first ceramic material and the second ceramic material contain, or consists of, lithium silicate glass ceramic.
