摘要： In general, techniques are described for the creation and execution of accurate models for the manufacture of complex, multi-layered materials. The techniques may be used to calculate variations of a process parameter within the material during the manufacturing process. A method comprises receiving segment data that partitions a manufacturing process into a set of segments having at least one layer of a material. For example, the segment data may partition the manufacturing processes along a path traversed by the material within the manufacturing process. The method further comprises receiving curvature data for the layers, and calculating values for a process parameter through the layers of the segments as a function of the curvature data. The method may comprise invoking a one-dimensional model, such as a one-dimensional finite difference model, to calculate the values for the defined segments and layers.

摘要： A product stacking apparatus and method employs one or more stations, each including a stationary stacking platform or a conveyor upon which spaced-apart pucks are coupled for travel thereon. A product delivery apparatus drives one or more movable webs to which segmented product sheets are removably affixed. The product delivery apparatus includes one or more rotatable lamination interfaces associated with each of the stations for transferring product sheets from the webs to the pucks on a repetitive basis to produce a stack of product sheets on the respective pucks. Each of the segmented product sheets may define all or a portion of an electrochemical cell, all or a portion of a pad including layers of film or sheet material, wherein a portion of each of the layers is provided with a bonding feature, or all or a portion of a pack comprising layers of medical dressing. A puck need not be in motion during the transfer of the product sheet from the lamination roll to the puck. The puck may or may not be attached to a conveyor, but the conveyor need not be in motion during the lamination or stack building process. In this case, a roller is moved across the puck and simultaneously rotated so a point on the surface of the roller interfaces with the puck at the same location on each pass.

摘要翻译： 产品堆垛装置和方法采用一个或多个工位，每个工位都包括一个固定的堆垛平台或一个传送带，在该传送带上分开有一个分开的盘，以便在其上行进。 产品输送装置驱动一个或多个可移动的网，分段的产品片可拆卸地固定到该幅片上。 产品递送装置包括与每个站相关联的一个或多个可旋转的层压界面，用于将产品板从纸幅重复地传送到冰球，以在相应的冰球上产生一叠产品纸。 每个分段产品片可以限定电化学电池的全部或一部分，包括膜或片材材料层的焊盘的全部或一部分，其中每个层的一部分设置有结合特征，或全部或 包括医用敷料层的一部分包装。 在将产品片从层压辊转移到冰球期间，圆盘不需要运动。 圆盘可以或可以不附接到输送机，但是在层压或堆叠构建过程期间输送机不需要运动。 在这种情况下，辊子移动穿过圆盘并同时旋转，使得辊子表面上的点与每个通道上的相同位置处的冰球接触。
