Abstract

[Problem] To make it possible to more appropriately peel off a section to be peeled off from a kiss-cut sheet-like member. [Solution] A kiss-cutting roller 30 and a backing roller 40 of a vacuum laminator 1, according to the present invention, cut only a film of a sheet-like member (sheet-like laminate S) obtained by laminating a base material (separator) and a sticking member (film). A peeling suppression unit 50 performs peeling suppression processing for suppressing the peeling off from the separator of a first portion (die-cutting region), which is not to be peeled from the separator, in a film that has been cut by the kiss-cutting roller 30 and the backing roller 40, or in a portion of the film that is to be cut. Laminate rollers 90A, 90B apply a second portion (frame body portion), in the film cut by the kiss-cutting roller 30 and the backing roller 40, peeled from the separator to a workpiece.

Abstract

[Object] To provide a spindle device capable of clamping two positions at the inside and the outside of a multifunctional holder with one driving means, a machine tool having the spindle device mounted thereon, and the like. [Object] To provide a spindle device capable of clamping two positions at the inside and the outside of a multifunctional holder with one driving means, a machine tool having the spindle device mounted thereon, and the like. [Solution Means] In a spindle device to be used by mounting a holder having a first clamped part and a second clamped part arranged doubly on a spindle leading end, a first draw bar 8 and a second draw bar 9 overlap each other and are arranged in series in a spindle cylinder. As the first draw bar 8 is pushed and advanced by a striking metal 17, the first draw bar 8 is advanced against a biasing force of a first disc spring assembly 10 and a first clamping mechanism is released, and along with this, the second draw bar 7 is also advanced against a biasing force of a second disc spring assembly 11, and a second clamping mechanism is also released. As the striking metal 17 is retreated, the first and second clamping mechanisms of the first and second draw bars 8 and 9 are activated by the biasing forces of the first and second disc spring assemblies 10 and 11.

Abstract

[Problem] To more easily bond a cut sheet member to a workpiece. [Solution] A laminator 1 supplies a workpiece 100 to be processed and an upper film 200 and a lower film 300 to be bonded to the workpiece 100 and bonds the upper film 200 and the lower film 300 to the workpiece 100. The laminator 1 detects the misaligned state of the workpiece 100 before bonding thereof. The laminator 1 processes the upper film 200 and the lower film 300 supplied in advance based on the detection results so that the cutting positions correspond to the misaligned state of the workpiece 100. When bonding the sheet members to the workpiece 100, the laminator arranges the cutting positions of the upper film 200 and the lower film 300 supplied to match the misaligned state of the workpiece 100.

Abstract

[Problem] To provide: a spindle device that is capable of clamping a multifunctional holder at two locations on the inside and outside thereof using a single driving means; and a machine tool and the like that have such a spindle device mounted thereon. [Solution] In this spindle device where a holder having a first clamped part and a second clamped part that are doubly arranged is attached to a leading end of a spindle and is used, a first draw bar 8 and a second draw bar 9 are arranged within a spindle cylinder in an overlapping and serial manner. When being moved forward as a result of being pushed by a striking metal 17, the first draw bar 8 is caused to advance against a biasing force of a first disc spring assembly 10, resulting in release of a first clamping mechanism. At the same time, the second draw bar 7 is also caused to advance against a biasing force of a second disc spring assembly 11, causing release of a second clamping mechanism. In conjunction with a backward movement of the striking metal 17, the first and second clamping mechanisms of the first and second draw bars 8, 9 are respectively activated by the biasing forces of the first and second disc-spring assemblies 10, 11.

Abstract

A cutting system includes an articulated robot and a cutting device, and the cutting device includes a body and a cutter unit. The body includes a motor that rotates a rotary blade. The cutter unit includes a case housing a part of the rotary blade and a guiding part linked to the case and housing another part of the rotary blade, and has, between the case and the guiding part, a space for cutting into which an object to be cut (a film) is introduced. The articulated robot moves the cutting device and the object to be cut relative to each other. A part of the rotary blade is exposed in the space for cutting, and the cutter unit of the cutting device is attachable to and detachable from the body.
