Abstract: Imprint apparatus performs, on shot regions of substrate, imprint process for transferring pattern of mold to imprint material arranged on the substrate. The apparatus includes detector for detecting first mark of the substrate and second mark of the mold, and controller configured to control positioning of the detector based on driving amount, held in a storage, by which the detector is to be driven to fit the first mark and the second mark within specific region of field of view of the detector, and correction value held in the storage and used to correct the driving amount. The controller performs alignment between shot region selected from the shot regions and the mold based on output of the detector, and updates the correction value held in the storage based on the output of the detector.

Abstract: For in mold spraying, a double-inclined mixing nozzle is connected obliquely and fixedly with a side surface of a third half-mold through a lateral sealing structure and connected with a side surface of a first half-mold in an inclined and sealing manner, side faces of a first half-mold and the third half-mold are respectively provided with installation inclined surfaces. A lateral sealing structure includes a mounting plate and a sealing member. The sealing member is sleeved on the double-inclined mixing nozzle and is in transition fit with the double-inclined mixing nozzle and the mounting plate respectively. A butt sealing groove provided on the installation inclined surface of the first half-mold and is in sealing fit with the mounting plate.

Abstract: A manufacturing method is disclosed herein. The method includes arranging a preform with a plurality of clamping assemblies, the plurality of clamping assemblies disposed along ends of the preform; and forming the preform into a shaped body, the forming including: incrementally tensioning the preform around a surface of an inner mold line using the plurality of clamping assemblies; and drawing the preform into a set of forming beads of the inner mold line.
