  • Process and apparatus for manufacturing clutch friction plate
    Patent number: 5571372
    Abstract: A process for manufacturing a friction plate for a clutch, said friction plate comprised of an annular core having a bonding surface, and a large number of friction material segments adhered to the bonding surface in a circumferential direction of the core with an oil groove provided between every adjacent segments. The process includes the steps of positioning the core with the bonding surface with an adhesive facing upwards; unwinding a friction material tape to a position above the core in an amount corresponding to one friction material segment; subjecting the friction material tape to a cutting to provide the friction material segment, and pressing and adhering the friction material segment to the bonding surface; and unwinding the friction material tape in an amount corresponding to a next friction material segment, and rotating the core for adhering the next friction material segment.
