Systems, apparatuses, and methods to secure a film to a container are provided. An example sealing device utilizes film from a supply of film to seal a lid onto a container. Various sizes of containers are usable with some example sealing devices. Additional features, such as printing on the film and piercing the film for ventilation and/or insertion of a straw are contemplated. One or more markings along the film may be utilized for confirming that an approved film has been loaded into the sealing device. In response, various components or features of the sealing device may be appropriately enabled or disabled. The one or more markings may also be utilized to convey data to the sealing device regarding the installed film, such as for improved operation thereof.

A medical device includes a scaffold crimped to a catheter having an expansion balloon. The scaffold is crimped to the balloon by a process that includes inflating the delivery balloon during a diameter reduction to improve scaffold retention and maintaining an inflated balloon during the diameter reduction and prior and subsequent dwell periods.

A film pasting tool is used to paste one surface of a film on a member-to-be-pasted at a predetermined position. The tool comprises a flexible tabular body, a first adhesive part, a front surface thereof being adhesive, provided on one surface of the body, and a second adhesive part, a front surface thereof being adhesive, provided on a part of a region other than a region where the first adhesive part is provided out of one surface of the body. An other surface of the film is pastable on the front surface of the second adhesive part, and when the other surface of the film is pasted on the front surface of the second adhesive part, the front surface of the first adhesive part is exposed in such a manner that the front surface of the first adhesive part is pastable on the member-to-be-pasted.

A processing method for a workpiece includes a cutting step of cutting the workpiece along streets by a cutting blade having a V-shaped tip end, to form V grooves of which shallower parts are wider than deeper parts, and a cleaning step of cleaning a back surface of the workpiece with cleaning water, after the cutting step is carried out.

Systems, apparatuses, and methods to seal a container are provided. An apparatus for securing a film to a container includes a body portion to house film and a sealing portion. The sealing portion includes a loading zone to receive a portion of film from the body portion and an aperture to receive a top portion of the container and the portion of the film therethrough to enable positioning within a sealing volume. A plurality of near-infrared light emitting diodes (NIR LEDs) face toward and at least partially surround the top portion of the container when positioned within the sealing volume. A controller is configured to receive sensor input from a sensor indicating that the top portion of the container is within the sealing volume and cause, in response thereto, activation of the plurality of NIR LEDs to secure the portion of the film to the top portion of the container.

Methods of tracing a lengthwise half of a board sports board and applying a substrate film cutout onto the board having the steps of centering a centerline of a tracing scale onto a center of the board, the tracing scale having an off-centerline on both sides of the centerline; aligning a centerline mark of the film with the off-centerline of the tracing scale; flipping the board over such that the board is on top of the film; tracing a trace outline of half of the board onto the film, such that the half of the trace outline is incrementally larger or smaller than the half of the board; removing a release liner from the trace outline to expose an adhesive in the film; wetting the adhesive with a solution of water and liquid soap; flattening the wetted film onto the board with a spreader; and wiping with a wiping cloth.

The disclosure relates to a filling machine (1) for filling a package (2) of a web of packaging material with a food product. The filling machine (1) comprises a jaw system (3) adapted to seal the package (2) after being filled with the food product. The jaw system (3) is equipped with means (4) for providing a unique mark (5) on the package (2). The filling machine (1) further comprises a sensor (7) arranged downstream of the jaw system (3) which is adapted to detect the mark (5) on the package (2), and a cutting knife (8) adapted to cut the package (2) from the web of packaging material. The cutting knife (8) is movably arranged in the filling machine (1), such that the cutting knife (8) can be adjusted in relation to the package (2) based on the detected mark (5) before cutting the package (2) from the web of packaging material. The disclosure also relates to a method for filling a package (2) of a web of packaging material with a food product.

A heat-weldable weld fitting that has a cylindrical fitting main body portion. The cylindrical fitting main body portion includes an outer periphery including a first end portion, a second end portion, and a middle section between the first end portion and the second end portion, and positioning scales formed at equal intervals in a peripheral direction of the second end portion of the outer periphery of the fitting main body portion. The first end portion being configured to be heated by a heater and is welded to an end portion of another weld fitting. The positioning scales are configured to define an angular portion of the weld fitting relative to the welding apparatus at the time of welding the first end portion to the first end portion of another weld fitting by matching the positioning scale with a reference mark provided on the clamp portion of the welding apparatus.
