A system for holding a workpiece in position and exposing it to laser radiation, such that: the workpiece includes a bottom surface and a top surface that are electrically insulated from each other. The system includes an electrostatic charge generating device for generating electrostatic charges on the top surface; an electrically conductive support for forming, on the bottom surface, electrostatic charges of opposite sign to those generated on the top surface; and a laser device for machining or welding. The electrostatic charge generating device is arranged to be activated before or during the laser machining or welding, such that the workpiece is held in position relative to the electrically conductive support during the machining or welding thereof.

During the manufacturing process the exterior surface of one or both of the sheets of plastic film which form the bags is treated with low temperature corona discharge plasma to raise the level of surface charge magnitude to at least 43 Dyne to increase the adhesion force between the bags. A recess is formed in each of the bags to further increase the adhesion. The increased adhesion causes the mouth of one bag to automatically open as the adjacent bag is removed from the rack. The recess is formed at the same time openings are created in the bags to accept the support rods of a dispensing rack. The bags can have simple edge sides or side gussets and may be provided in a package including a pouch which receives and supports the lower portions of the bags.

The invention relates to a method for depositing one- or two-dimensional fiber structures in order to form a two- or three-dimensional fiber structure, in particular a fiber structure in the form of a fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) or FRP semi-finished product, using a production machine including at least one depositing device and at least one fiber support. The one- or two-dimensional fiber structures have at least one unidirectional fiber layer. The depositing device deposits the one- or two-dimensional fiber structures onto the fiber support in a depositing direction in a controlled manner such that the fiber directions of the deposited one- or two-dimensional fiber structures assume an angle α>20°, preferably α>60°, and a maximum of α=90°, relative to the depositing direction. The one- or two-dimensional fiber structures are deposited on the fiber support in a substantially tension-free manner with respect to the fiber direction of the fiber structures.

A method is proposed for transferring a bottom label and a wraparound label into an injection mould for producing an injection-moulded part provided with the labels, in that the bottom label is arranged on the end side and the wraparound label on the lateral side of an insert die and the insert die equipped with the two labels is introduced into the mould cavity of the moulding tool, after which the bottom label is deposited on the bottom and the wraparound label on the lateral surface of the mould cavity of the moulding tool, in order to back-mould them with a plastics material injected into the mould cavity. According to the invention, the method comprises the following steps of:providing an insert die, the end side of which has a central portion and a circumferential portion adjoining the central portion radially on the outside, wherein the central portion protrudes further in the direction of the free end of the insert die in the axial direction of the latter than the circumferential portion, such that the cross section of the insert die narrows in the direction of its free end, at least in the circumferential portion of its end side;applying the bottom label both to the central portion and to the circumferential portion of the end side of the insert die and applying the wraparound label to the lateral side thereof such that the wraparound label projects beyond the end, fining the end side, of the lateral side of the insert die in the direction of the free end thereof;introducing the insert die equipped with the two labels into the mould cavity of the moulding tool;detaching the wraparound label from the lateral side of the insert die and applying same at least to the lateral surface of the mould cavity of the moulding tool;detaching the bottom label from the end side of the insert die and applying same to the bottom of the mould cavity of the moulding tool, wherein the peripheral region of the bottom label is turned down from the circumferential portion of the end side of the insert die onto the bottom of the mould cavity of the moulding tool, such that it internally overlaps the edge, facing it, of the wraparound label; andextracting the insert die from the mould cavity of the moulding tool. The invention also relates to an injection-moulding device, suitable for carrying out such a method, having an insert die of the abovementioned type.

A method of forming three-dimensional composite comprising steps of: (a) manufacturing at least one shaping member; (b) fitting each of the at least one shaping member on each of at least one mold; (c) adhering at least one connection sheet on said each shaping member so as to form each of at least one semi-finished product; (d) fixing said each semi-finished product in a cavity; and (e) heating said each semi-finished product and vacuuming the cavity. Said shaping member has at least one orifice and covers said each mold, and each connection sheet has a substrate and an adhesive layer, a melting point of the adhesive layer is less than the substrate. Said each semi-finished product in the cavity is heated until the adhesive layer melts, and the cavity is vacuumed so that the adhesive layer penetrates into said each shaping member, thus producing a three-dimensional finished product.
