Abstract: In mounter, work using multiple suction nozzles is executed by executing an exchange of suction nozzles between nozzle station and mounting head. In addition, placement positions of suction nozzles at nozzle station are set so that the distance between accommodation section at the nozzle station and part camera is shorter for the suction nozzle to be exchanged more times at the nozzle station. Then, for exchange of suction nozzles during mounting work, the suction nozzle attached to the mounting head is returned to a placement section corresponding to a set placement position. As a result, placement positions at the nozzle station are rearranged into the set placement positions, so that the distance that the mounting head moves for nozzle exchange can be made shorter, which makes it possible to reduce the time required for nozzle exchange.

Abstract: A friction member of the resin mold type comprising brass fiber of 1-10 mm length having a trapezoid in cross figure thereof as a base material of the friction member, and a phenolic resin of cement composition, to obtain excellent qualities such as good durability at high temperature.

Abstract: Friction facings comprising a non-woven fibrous lamina reinforced with stitching, and impregnated with a curable binder have improved resistance to delamination.

Abstract: Improved clutch facings for use in motor vehicles containing asbestos fibers, an improved friction property modifier comprising a cashew nutshell resin dust having graphite powder integrally incorporated therein, and a binder.

Abstract: A clutch facing material including strings of asbestos to which are applied a mixture of cashew dust resin and graphite which is in turn mixed with cashew dust. The graphite is inseparably contained in the mixture of cashew dust resin and graphite and, in combination with the cashew dust, provides a clutch facing material showing a high frictional coefficient even at high temperatures.

Abstract: A friction member is a clutch facing, a brake pad, or a brake lining which comprises a phenolic fiber, a plated organic fiber, and/or mixed fiber thereof, which may or may not comprise the other fibers such as nonorganic fibers, as based material of the aforementioned friction member, wherein various difficulties of asbestos are improved.

Abstract: A paper based frictional material is formed by forming a paper material of a desired size from a mixture comprising wood pulp, a lubricant and an organic fiber; soaking said paper material in a binder agent, and then drying the soaked material; and heating said dried paper product to carbonize the same under conditions in which oxygen is substantially eliminated from contact with said paper material so that a material is obtained whose frictional characteristics are such that the material is useful as a clutch facing in automatic transmissions.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a clutch facing including the steps of mixing graphite and phenolic resin to form a graphite mixture, soaking an asbestos fiber string within the mixture, removing the soaked string such that phenolic resin content of between 14-24 weight percents and graphite content of between 1-8 weight percents for every 100 weight percents is produced and bonding the string to the clutch facing such that the Rockwell hardness of the clutch facing is between 20-60 on the Moh scale.

Abstract: An improvement is disclosed in the dry method for manufacturing friction materials of the resin mold type, especially brake lining pads, which comprises uniformly mixing graphite particles and a phenolic resin in a liquid form, solidifying the mixture, grinding the solidified mixture, and using the ground material as a binder in forming a friction member of the resin mold type. The binder has a graphite powder content of 2-31 wt.% and a phenolic resin content of 69-98 wt.%. Brake linings of improved wear resistance and fade resistance can be produced using this improved method.

Abstract: A process for producing resin-coated sand particles for use in shell moles wherein a phenolformaldehyde resin in an initial stage of condensation is sprayed into a hot zone to form droplets which gravitationally descend to a cold zone and solidify. The particles are mixed with sand, heated to a temperature above the melting point of the resin and coat the sand.
