Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing; a water absorbent resin powder having a reduced amount of fine powder generated and a reduced amount of fine powder recovered; and a production method for the water absorbent resin. The production method of the present invention includes a drying step and a fine powder granulation step. The drying step is for obtaining a dried polymer by drying a particulate water-containing gel crosslinked polymer which is obtained using an acid group-containing unsaturated monomer as a main component. The fine powder granulation step is for obtaining a fine powder granulated product by adding a binder and an adhesion control agent to a fine powder made of a water absorbent resin. In this production method, the obtained fine powder granulated product is recovered in the drying step or in any step before the drying step.

A midpoint position in the vertical direction between the lower target midpoint position and the upper target midpoint position after the coordinate change is used as a target contact position.

Abstract: A method for estimating a flange displacement amount includes determining effective three-dimensional coordinate data at a lower first position of a first supported portion on a surface continuous with a lower flange surface and at an upper first position coincident with the lower first position in a horizontal direction on a surface continuous with an upper flange surface. The effective three-dimensional coordinate data are changed such that the effective three-dimensional coordinate data at the lower first position and the effective three-dimensional coordinate data at the upper first position are coincident with each other. According to a difference between a position in a vertical direction indicated by the effective three-dimensional coordinate data at an upper target position and a position in the vertical direction indicated by the effective three-dimensional coordinate data at a lower target position, displacement amounts of the upper target position and the lower target position are obtained.
