A composite structure manufacturing method comprising: a lamination step in which a plurality of fiber-reinforced resin sheets are laminated to form a plate-shaped laminate; a pressing deformation step in which a third roller or similar, which rolls along a plate surface of the laminate, is used to press the plate surface of the laminate, thereby forming a recessed section or a protruding section in a prescribed section of the laminate; a short direction deformation step in which, after the pressing deformation step, the laminate is deformed in the short direction to make the long direction cross-section into a prescribed shape; and a long direction deformation step in which, after the pressing deformation step, the laminate is deformed in the long direction to make the short direction cross-section into a prescribed shape.

Disclosed herein is a method of manufacturing a headlining, using a moisture-curing adhesive that can be molded at a relatively low temperature and enables energy saving by not requiring a condition in which bonding surfaces are preheated to an excessively high temperature. A headlining manufactured thereby the same method is also disclosed. The method includes coating a fabric with a moisture-curing adhesive, curing the moisture-curing adhesive by spraying water onto the moisture-curing adhesive, forming a headlining member by putting the fabric coated with the moisture-curing adhesive on a substrate after the curing, and pressing the headlining member so that the fabric and the substrate are bonded to each other and the headlining is shaped at the same time, after the forming.

A lamination apparatus including a jig and a pad disposed facing the jig. The jig may include an accommodation groove, which is defined by a bottom surface, a first side surface bent and extending from the bottom surface, and a second side surface bent and extending from the bottom surface. The pad includes a pressing surface facing the bottom surface, a first pad side surface bent from the pressing surface in a direction away from the jig, a second pad side surface bent from the pressing surface in a direction away from the jig, a connection surface connecting the first pad side surface to the second pad side surface, and a recess recessed from the pressing surface, the connection surface, and the first pad side surface.

A method for folding a fastener during a high speed manufacturing process and maintaining the fastener in a folded configuration throughout the high speed manufacturing process. The method includes obtaining an article that has a foldable fastener and moving the article in the machine direction during the high speed manufacturing process. The foldable fastener has first and second opposing surfaces, a web and at least one engaging member joined to the web. The method includes applying a frangible bonding agent to a first portion of the first surface of the fastening system; folding the fastening system such that the frangible bonding agent contacts a second portion of the first surface of the fastening system; and allowing the frangible bonding agent to cool at a temperature of less than 60° C.

A method for producing a multi-layered wet friction material includes providing a bottom layer, providing a top layer produced independently of the bottom layer from different materials, and bonding the bottom layer to the top layer. The bottom layer and the top layer may be produced from different formulations and supplied as raw papers. A formulation of the top layer may include twenty to sixty percent (20%-60%) filler, ten to forty percent (10%-40%) wood pulp, five to ten percent (5%-10%) aramid, and twenty-five to thirty-five percent (25%-35%) phenolic resin. A formulation of the bottom layer may include ten to fifty percent (10%-50%) filler, ten to forty percent (10%-40%) wood pulp, five to ten percent (5%-10%) aramid, five to fifteen percent (5%-15%) carbon, and twenty-five to thirty-five percent (25%-35%) phenolic resin.
