The invention relates to a method of manufacturing high durability timber product, the method comprising: a) selecting a durable substrate timber; b) selecting a veneer of high-performance timber; and c) gluing the veneer of high-performance timber to the face of the durable substrate 5 timber, wherein the resulting manufactured high durability timber product is suitable for long-term use in exterior applications at a lower cost than that of the same thickness timber product if made of high-performance timber alone.

A method and apparatus for securing a zipper closure to polymeric film using minimal tension on the zipper closure includes providing first and second tension control loops, an eyemark detector, and a hole punch programmed to punch a hole in the zipper closure upon detection of the eyemark. The zipper closure and the film are supplied to a sealing station at the same speed, and the hole zipper closure is aligned with the eyemark on the film, to result in sealing the strip of zipper closure to the film resulting in minimal wrinkles to the resulting bag.

Various embodiments for configuring LC cells, LC panels, and methods of manufacturing LC panels are provided, comprising: providing a first glass layer and a second glass layer; wherein the first glass layer has first and second surfaces and the second glass layer has first and second surfaces; and at least one of: surface polishing a surface of the first glass layer and second glass layer; and selectively positioning the first glass layer and second glass layer such that, after lamination, based on the positioning or polishing of the glass layers, the resulting LC panel is configured with uniform transmission.

A product for displaying an image or object (e.g., printed photo or a print, etc.) according to at least one implementation includes a first sheet having a front face and a rear face. An image or object is formed along the rear face. The product also includes an adhesive coated substrate, such as a ferrous metal substrate, to which the first sheet is adhesively affixed.

The disclosure relates to systems and methods for pressing a door assembly involving a scanning system operable to survey an outer surface of a door skin and identify a location of one or more recessed panel portions on the door skin, and a press operable to selectably actuate a group of actuators based on the identified location of the recessed panel portions, where the actuators drive press members onto the one or more recessed panel portions of the door skin during a pressing operation to facilitate crushing of portions of a core of the door assembly that underlie the recessed panel portion of the door skin.

Square symmetric composite laminate structures, and sub-modules thereof, are provided, along with methods of forming the same. The square symmetric laminate structures include two or more sub-laminate modules, each comprising: a first ply set consisting of a first ply layer oriented at a first angle and a second ply layer oriented at a second angle, a first sum of the first and second angles being ninety degrees; and a second ply set consisting of a third ply layer oriented at a third angle and a fourth ply layer oriented at a fourth angle, a second sum of the third and fourth angles being ninety degrees; wherein the second ply layer is positioned adjacent the third ply layer and the second and third ply layers are both positioned intermediate the first and fourth ply layers, thereby defining a double-double helix arrangement of the respective ply layers. Associated methods are also provided.

A method for bonding a contact surface of a first substrate to a contact surface of a second substrate comprising of the steps of: positioning the first substrate on a first receiving surface of a first receiving apparatus and positioning the second substrate on a second receiving surface of a second receiving apparatus; establishing contact of the contact surfaces at a bond initiation site; and bonding the first substrate to the second substrate along a bonding wave which is travelling from the bond initiation site to the side edges of the substrates, wherein the first substrate and/or the second substrate is/are deformed for alignment of the contact surfaces.

A system for manufacturing a 3D protective film includes a raw material processing device configured to process an intermediate raw material, which is a raw material of an intermediate liquid crystal protection film included in the protective film for protecting a liquid crystal surface of the electronic device, an upper raw material, which is a raw material of a hard coating surface protection film formed on an upper portion of the intermediate liquid crystal protection film, and a lower raw material which is a raw material of an adhesive surface protection film formed on a lower portion of the intermediate liquid crystal protection film, a laminating device configured to form a raw lamination material by laminating the upper raw material, the lower raw material, and the intermediate raw material, and a shape processing device configured to form the pre-formed protective film by processing the raw lamination material.

Disclosed is a protective film, which includes: a protective film sheet; a protective layer; and a release layer, a lead tab is connected to an end part of the release layer, and a positioning mechanism is arranged on the protective layer to align the protective film sheet with a screen of an electronic device.

A locator for film sticking on an intelligent automobile central control computer screen and a film sticking method thereof are provided, and generally relate to the technical field of film sticking tools. The locator for film sticking on the intelligent automobile central control computer screen and the film sticking method thereof of the present disclosure comprises the film sticking mechanism, film component, and central control panel module of automobiles. The film sticking mechanism is comprised of a locator with no fewer than two L-shaped central control panel positioning stiffeners which are diagonally arranged on a side to clamp the central control panel. The protective film of the central control panel is limited by the setting of the film sticking mechanism, film component, and the cooperation of the locator with the protective positioning film, so that the protective film of the central control panel is kept in a flat state.
