Abstract:
Method for manufacturing an optical display device which allows for appropriately correcting a linear deformation generated on a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer in laminating an optical functional film with a panel member includes steps of peeling a sheet of optical functional film together with the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer from a carrier film up to a predetermined head-out length, stopping the conveyance of the carrier film for detecting the front edge, making the front edge of the sheet of optical functional film proceed to the laminating position, laminating from the front edge to a predetermined position upstream of the head-out length on the sheet of optical functional film with the panel member at a first lamination speed, and laminating at least a part from the predetermined position to a rear edge of the sheet of optical functional film with the panel member at a speed faster than the first lamination speed.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of producing a roll of an optical film laminate strip including a polarizing film which has a thickness of 10 μm or less. The method comprises the steps of: forming a continuous web of optical film laminate including a polarizing film which consists of a polyvinyl alcohol type resin layer and has a thickness of 10 μm or less, wherein the polarizing film is formed by performing an stretching sub-step of subjecting a laminate comprising a continuous web of thermoplastic resin substrate and a polyvinyl alcohol type resin layer formed on the substrate, to a uniaxial stretching in a lengthwise direction of the laminate based on 2-stage stretching consisting of preliminary in-air stretching and in-boric-acid-solution stretching, to attain a stretching ratio of 5 to 8.5 to thereby reduce a thickness of the polyvinyl alcohol type resin layer to 10 μm or less, and an absorption sub-step of causing a dichroic material to be absorbed in the polyvinyl alcohol type resin layer; cutting the continuous web of optical film laminate along a direction parallel to the length direction to form at least one continuous web of laminate strip having a given width; and winding the continuous web of laminate strip having the given width into a roll.

Abstract:
A method of producing an optical panel assembly including the polarizing film in a continuous manner by laminating a polarizing film to a surface of a rectangular-shaped optical panel, is disclosed. The polarizing film is formed by performing a step of subjecting a laminate including a continuous web of a thermoplastic resin substrate and a PVA type resin layer formed on the substrate, to a 2-stage stretching consisting of a preliminary in-air stretching and an in-boric-acid-solution stretching, to reduce a thickness of the PVA type resin layer to 10 μm or less, and a step of causing a dichroic material to be absorbed in the PVA type resin layer.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing an optical display device from a web of optical film laminate including a carrier film, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed on one of opposite surfaces of the carrier film, and a plurality of sheets of optical functional film continuously supported on the carrier film via the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, comprises folding the other of opposite surfaces of the carrier film inside via a tip end of a releasing body to wind the carrier film, peeling the sheet of optical functional film to a head-out state while exposing the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, stopping winding of the carrier film, detecting a front end of the peeled sheet of optical functional film in the head-out state, and rewinding the carrier film integrally with the sheet of optical functional film in the head-out state to mend a deformation of a pressure-sensitive adhesive, at the tip end of the releasing body.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for forming a laminated substrate free from misalignment which would otherwise occur based on the assumption that, when the laminated substrate is formed by; preliminarily producing at least two rolls of laminate webs having different roll widths; and successively laminating at least two film sheets cut out, respectively, from the laminate webs being fed from the rolls, to one surface of a rectangular substrate, the roll width of each of the preliminarily-produced rolls of laminate webs becomes non-uniform.
Abstract:
A method of producing a roll of a continuous web of an optical film laminate, usable in a process of laminating an optical film sheet including a polarizing film and formed to a size corresponding to that an optical panel to a surface of the optical panel being fed to a lamination position, is disclosed. The polarizing film is prepared by subjecting a laminate including a thermoplastic resin substrate and a PVA type resin layer formed on the substrate, to uniaxial 2-stage stretching to reduce a thickness of the PVA type resin layer to 10 μm or less, and causing a dichroic material to be absorbed in the PVA type resin layer. A carrier film is releasably attached to the continuous web of optical film laminate including the polarizing film, through an adhesive layer. A defect inspection is performed for the optical film laminate and the adhesive layer.
