A fiber material is filled into a cavity of a tool to produce a product from the fiber material. The tool comprises a mold which defines the cavity therein and a holder which supports the mold. The holder is displaced to move the mold to at least one thermal treatment station The fiber material is thermally treated in the mold at the at least one thermal treatment station.

The present disclosure is directed to an apparatus for manufacturing a composite component. The apparatus includes a mold onto which the composite component is formed. The mold is disposed within a grid defined by a first axis and a second axis. The apparatus further includes a first frame assembly disposed above the mold, and a plurality of machine heads coupled to the first frame assembly within the grid in an adjacent arrangement along the first axis. At least one of the mold or the plurality of machine heads is moveable along the first axis, the second axis, or both. At least one of the machine heads of the plurality of machine heads is moveable independently of one another along a third axis.

An object of the disclosure is to improve the quality of a molded component after processed. A processing apparatus 10 is the processing apparatus 10 for a composite material 1 in which fibers and a thermoplastic resin are compounded. The processing apparatus 10 includes: a pair of pallets 20 configured to clamp the composite material 1; a heating die 30 configured to press and heat the composite material 1 via the pair of pallets 20; a cooling die 40 configured to press and cool the composite material 1 via the pair of pallets 20; a temperature adjustment unit configured to adjust a temperature of the cooling die 40; and a conveyance device 50 configured to convey the pair of pallets 20 clamping the composite material 1 from the heating die 30 to the cooling die 40.

Traditional climbing is being sought out by more indoor climbers, however the issue that has arisen is that the only way to learn the method is through trial and error in the outdoors on real rock. An indoor-traditional climbing device (I-TCD) makes it possible to learn how to climb Traditionally in a safe environment with hands on instruction. Provided herein is a cover/shield for an I-TCD that allows not only for the placement of multiple kinds of gear within the I-TCD body, but it allows the climber to fall on that gear placement safely to determine the quality of their gear placement, without the risk of falling upon the I-TCD body. Therefore, the cover/shield provides an angled feature to reduce direct impact injuries while increasing the opportunity for climbers who wish to learn how to climb traditionally.

A display device includes a cover member which is at least partially bent, a panel member arranged along a surface of the cover member, where the panel member displays an image, and a support member arranged on another surface of the panel member different from the surface of the panel member on which the cover member is arranged.

A method of producing a plurality of parts includes placing a sol mixture into a cavity of a tool, optionally placing a metal foil over a top of the cavity and placing a graphite gasket over the metal foil, and securing the tool with the sol mixture to form a tooling capsule. Tooling capsules are placed within a conveyor system and are heated until the solvent of the sol mixture reaches at least supercritical conditions of the solvent. Pressure is released within each of the tooling capsules after the supercritical conditions are reached, and then the tooling capsules are cooled to approximately room temperature. The parts are removed from the tooling capsules, and the method is continuous.

A molded product take-out apparatus includes: a controller independent of a molding machine; a take-out robot for releases a molded product from a mold in the molding machine by a command from the controller; a temperature controller regulates the temperature of the mold; a material dryer dries material to be supplied to the molding machine; and a material conveyor supplies the dried material to the molding machine. The controller is network-connected to the take-out robot and the temperature controller and the material dryer and the material conveyor. The controller is configured to control a release operation of the take-out robot to differentiate a release place between when judging that a detection data to be within an allowable range and another case.

Auto-aligning vacuum presses, that include a mobile assembly with a first platen, a vacuum docking station with a second platen, a first locating device to guide the mobile assembly to a desired location along the Y-axis as the mobile assembly moves along the X-axis into the vacuum station, and a second locating device to guide one of the first and second platens along the Z-axis into sealing engagement with the other platen.
