A method for manufacturing glass-based micro- and nanostructure comprising the step of dewetting a thin-film glass layer on a textured substrate to form the micro- and nanostructure from the thin-film glass layer.

An extruding unit, a forming roll unit and a thick portion forming mechanism are provided. The extruding unit has an ejecting slit which ejects sheet-shaped molten resin. The ejecting slit includes a standard gap portion and an enlarged gap portion. The standard gap portion is formed as a gap having a constant size. The enlarged gap portion is formed as a gap larger than the standard gap portion in a position corresponding to a thick portion. The thick portion forming mechanism forms one or several thick portions which are thicker than other portion, in the sheet-shaped molten resin continuously in the extrusion direction.

An example method of forming a composite structure is described that includes applying a laminated charge onto an expandable pallet, moving the expandable pallet at a translation rate and relative to a die conveyor that comprises a plurality of die sections, and driving the plurality of die sections on the die conveyor at an angle relative to the expandable pallet so as to drive the plurality of die sections progressively deeper into a recess defined by the expandable pallet and shape the laminated charge into at least part of a shape of the composite structure.

Aspects disclosed herein relate to forming on a substrate fastener elements suitable for use in touch fastener by employing vibration forming methods. The processes described provide for a greater flexibility in manufacturing than prior methods and overcome certain limitations in prior forming techniques. Further, the product made can embody a variety of different configurations suitable for a given application. Employing vibration forming methods, such as ultrasonic forming methods, allows for the use of a wider variety of substrate material than materials used with convention methods of touch fastener formation.

The invention relates to a packaging container (1, 2) for loose or free-flowing filling material, said packaging container consisting of plastic monofilm or composite film with at least one layer of plastic and forming, in a filled and closed form, a wrapping of the filling material with two mutually opposing main walls (3, 4) which act as bearing faces in a stack with other filled packaging containers and consist of thermoplastic, at least on the outer surfaces (15) thereof. The packaging container according to the invention is designed to be stackable in a non-slip manner but also easily removable from the stack and to this end, for practical production and processing, is designed such that the two surfaces (15) are embossed for a surface roughness having a roughness depth of 20-40 μm.

A method is provided for manufacturing flooring planks including a plastic base and an image plastic layer. The method includes a feeding step of feeding a plastic layer into oppositely rolling rollers; and a rolling step of hot rolling an embossing on the plastic layer. A feeding tension of the plastic layer is adjusted according to a longitudinal deviation between the embossing and the pattern in the rolling step. A device includes a first feeding device, an oppositely rolling rollers control device, a detecting device, and a tension controller disposed on the first feeding device. The method, the device and the long plastic layer with the embossing in register with the pattern processed use the method, implement the embossing rolled on the plastic layer in register with the pattern on the plastic layer and have high production efficiency, low cost and less energy consumption.

A method is provided for manufacturing flooring planks including a plastic base and an image plastic layer. The method includes a feeding step of feeding a layered raw material of a long decorative material to be rolled into oppositely rolling rollers; and a rolling step of hot rolling an embossing on the transparent plastic layer. A feeding tension of a printed plastic layer is adjusted according to a longitudinal deviation between the embossing and the pattern in the rolling step. The device includes a first feeding device, a second feeding device, the oppositely rolling rollers, a detecting device, and a tension controller disposed on the second feeding device. According to the long decorative material with the embossing in register with the pattern manufactured by the method, the embossing hot-rolled on the transparent plastic layer is in register with the pattern on the printed plastic layer.
