  • Publication number: 20240359353
    Abstract: The invention relates to steel-rule cutting dies having a die block with at least one kerf configured to receive a corresponding steel-rule intended to be partially inserted into the kerf. The die block also has at least one element having magnetic properties, such as for instance a magnet, located or embedded in proximity to each kerf for providing a magnetic field that retains the steel-rule when the steel-rule is received into the corresponding kerf. The presence of the magnetic element(s) in proximity to the kerf(s) allows maintaining the corresponding rule(s) in position within its kerf even if the kerf is cut “loosely”. The corresponding rule may be quickly and easily inserted and accurately maintained even if the die block expand or retract under atmospheric variations. Among other advantages, the invention allows better stability of the cutting-die, faster leveling on press, and increased the number of re-knifing and longer run-time.

  • Publication number: 20240359390
    Abstract: Disclosed are a valve device and a blow molding system. The valve device is applied to a blow mold and one or two decorative leathers for affixing to a bottle body is/are placed in the blow mold. The valve device comprises a base and at least one pintle arranged on the base, with one pintle being inserted into a vacuum suction hole of the blow mold. The valve device opens the vacuum suction holes to create negative pressure and enable decorative leather to be adsorbed to the inner wall of the blow mold, and blocks the vacuum suction holes to achieve detachment between the decorative leather and the inner wall of the blow mold, to adhere the decorative leather to the bottle body to complete the production.

  • Publication number: 20240359392
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for embossing a plastic sheet and a corresponding tool (1). The plastic sheet is pressed between first and second tool halves (3, 5) while being heated such that a pattern is imprinted on first and second faces (19, 21) of the plastic sheet. Reference marks (31, 33) are imprinted on both faces of the plastic sheet and the embossed plastic sheet is evaluated optically to determine error data based on the relative position of the first and second reference marks. This allows to adjust the embossing tool based on the error data for subsequent embossing operations.

  • Publication number: 20240359393
    Abstract: The present invention relates to thermoplastic film having improved tear resistance, puncture resistance, and enhanced control of the film's elongation when subject to an applied load. The film can have an emboss pattern comprising a plurality of embossed regions, each embossed region comprising a plurality of closely spaced, non-intersecting sinusoidal shaped embosses. A sinusoidal emboss of an embossed region can be divided into three sections, wherein for each section along the emboss, the cross and machine orientation of the film can vary due to formation of the emboss. The emboss pattern can be arranged into various sections, wherein the amplitudes of the sinusoidal embosses of an embossed region can vary from one section of the pattern to another. The overall geometric shape of the embossed regions can also vary from one emboss region to another.
