Abstract: A laminating apparatus that prevents partial protrusion of a film during pressing and ensures the uniformity of the thickness of a resulting laminate is provided. The laminating apparatus includes a pressing device for pressing a substrate and a film (a workpiece). The pressing device includes a press block movable back and forth, a pressing plate mountable to the press block, a plurality of heat sources (cartridge heaters) capable of heating the pressing plate, and a control system set up to perform heating control on the heat sources. The heat sources are arranged so as to be able to separately heat a central portion of the pressing plate and a peripheral portion thereof annularly surrounding the central portion.

Abstract: Provided is a laminating apparatus configured to improve the uniformity of the thickness of a laminate to be obtained to improve the yield of a product, such as a laminate. The laminating apparatus includes a pressing device including a first press block that is advanceable and retreatable, a second press block arranged to face the first press block, a first pressing rubber mounted inside the first press block, and a second pressing rubber mounted inside the second press block, the first pressing rubber and the second pressing rubber facing each other, the first pressing rubber having formed on a surface thereof facing the second pressing rubber a convex frame configured to surround a peripheral edge portion thereof.

Abstract: A laminating apparatus for improving the uniformity of the thickness of a resulting laminate to improve the yield of products such as laminates is provided. A pressing device includes: a first press block movable back and forth; a second press block disposed in opposed relation to the first press block; a first pressing plate mounted to the inside of the first press block; and a second pressing plate mounted to the inside of the second press block. The first pressing plate and the second pressing plate are opposed to each other. A surface of the first pressing plate which is opposed to the second pressing plate has a peripheral portion formed into a tapered surface in such a manner that the distance from the second pressing plate increases in an outward direction.

Abstract: A joined material and a method of manufacturing the joined material are provided which enable a metal layer and a carbon material layer to be easily joined to each other while making the thickness of the metal layer larger and which can inhibit failure. A joined material includes a CFC layer (3) and a tungsten layer (4) that are joined to each other. A sintered tungsten carbide layer (5), a mixed layer (6) of SiC and WC, and SiC and WC (7) that have been sintered while intruding into the CFC layer (3), are formed between the CFC layer (3) and the tungsten layer (4), and these layers (3, 4, 5, 6, and 7) are joined to each other by sintering.

Abstract: Achieved is a ceramic carbon composite material and a ceramic-coated ceramic carbon composite material which are lighter than ceramics and excellent in at least one of properties including oxidation resistance, resistance to dust generation, heat conductivity, electrical conductivity, strength, and denseness. The ceramic carbon composite material is a ceramic carbon composite material in which an interfacial layer of a ceramic is formed between carbon particles of or containing graphite. The ceramic carbon composite material can be produced by forming a green body from ceramic-coated powder in which the surfaces of carbon particles of or containing graphite are coated with individual ceramic layers and sintering the green body.
