Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of cutting a laminated film capable of preventing the generation of burr and delamination by a simple technique, and to provide the laminated film.SOLUTION: In a method of cutting a laminated film F1, an upper blade 7 having a cutting edge angle θ1 of 80-90° of a cutting edge 7a in slide contact with a lower blade 8 and the lower blade 8 having a cutting edge angle θ2 of 80-90° of a cutting edge 8a in slide contact with the upper blade 7 are used, and the upper blade 7 and the lower blade 8 are in slide contact with each other so that an entry depth D of the upper blade 7 relative to the lower blade 8 is 0.7-1.0 mm. Accordingly, when viewing a cut surface of the laminated film F1 in a cutting direction, an interface 38 transitioning from a fracture layer 31 to a shear layer 32 is formed in a second resin film 23, and the generation of burr is thereby prevented. Further, because a first protective film 21 to be the outermost layer becomes the thick shear layer 32, the bending and curving of the film due to the entry of the upper blade 7 is suppressed, and delamination is prevented.

Description

  The present invention relates to a method for cutting a laminated film and a laminated film.

  Conventionally, when handling a sheet-like film, a wide sheet-like film formed from raw materials is generally cut into an appropriate width and wound into a roll. For film cutting, for example, a cutting device such as a gobel blade slitter and a gang slitter is widely used.

  The Gobel type slitter is a slitter that includes an upper blade and a lower blade that rotate by sliding the side end portions of each blade edge in sliding contact, and cuts through a film between the upper blade and the lower blade. As a slitter of this method, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a disk-shaped slit blade having a receiving blade formed along an annular groove on a side surface of a receiving roller in contact with a metal foil, and a sharp bladed portion on an outer peripheral edge portion. And a slitter that rotates both blades in a state where the tip of the bladed portion of the slit blade is received in the annular groove of the roller.

  The gang-type slitter is a slitter that includes a pair of upper blades and a pair of lower blades arranged at predetermined intervals, and cuts the film by engaging the lower blades with the respective outer surfaces of the upper blades. As a slitter of this system, for example, in Patent Document 2, a plurality of annular upper blades fixed to one rotating shaft at a predetermined interval and a plurality of annularly arranged axially movable on the other rotating shaft are disclosed. A slitter that includes a lower blade and rotates both blades in a state where both side surfaces of the upper blade are sandwiched by the lower blade is disclosed.

  When slitting a laminated film consisting of a plurality of layers with a Gobel type slitter, if the blade edge of the blade edge that is in sliding contact with the upper blade is too small as a lower blade, burrs will occur on the cut surface, and the product or There was a possibility that the equipment was contaminated and the yield was lowered. On the other hand, if a blade having an excessively large blade edge angle in sliding contact with the upper blade is used as the lower blade, the layer of the laminated film may be peeled off, leading to a decrease in yield.

  The improvement of conventional cutting performance in slitters has been done by adjusting the outer diameter of the upper and lower blades, adjusting the rotational speed, and adjusting the inclination angle of the lower blade with respect to the upper blade. Are often accompanied by large-scale equipment remodeling and component changes, and there has been concern about an increase in the burden and cost of the management process.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a method for cutting a laminated film and a laminated film that can suppress generation of burrs and peeling of layers by a simple method.

  In order to solve the above problems, a method for cutting a laminated film according to the present invention is a method for cutting a laminated film through a laminated film between a lower blade and an upper blade that rotate in a state where the side edges of each blade edge are in sliding contact with each other. A cutting method using an upper blade having a blade edge angle of 80 ° to 90 ° in sliding contact with the lower blade, and a lower blade having a blade edge angle of 80 ° to 90 ° in contact with the upper blade, The upper blade and the lower blade are slidably contacted so that the depth of entry of the upper blade relative to the lower blade is 0.7 mm to 1.0 mm.

  In this method of cutting a laminated film, when the cut surface of the laminated film is viewed in the cutting direction (the direction from the upper blade to the lower blade), an interface that transitions from the fracture layer to the shear layer is formed. Thereby, generation | occurrence | production of the burr | flash in a laminated | multilayer film can be suppressed. Moreover, since the cut surface of the film which becomes the outermost layer is a thick shear layer, bending of the film caused by the upper blade entering is suppressed, and layer peeling can be suppressed.

  In addition, it is preferable to use an upper blade whose blade edge angle is 80 ° to 85 ° in sliding contact with the lower blade. In this case, generation | occurrence | production of a burr | flash and layer peeling can be suppressed more effectively.

  Further, it is preferable to use a lower blade having a blade edge angle of 85 ° to 90 ° in sliding contact with the upper blade. In this case, generation | occurrence | production of a burr | flash and layer peeling can be suppressed more effectively.

  Moreover, it is preferable that the amount of approach of the upper blade with respect to the lower blade is 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm. In this way, generation of burrs and peeling of the layers can be more effectively suppressed.

  The laminated film preferably includes a film having a tensile strength of 200 MPa to 600 MPa. A film having a tensile strength in this range has a suitable strength under the above-mentioned cutting conditions, and the generation of burrs and peeling of the layers can be more effectively suppressed.

  Moreover, it is preferable that a laminated film contains a resin film. Even in this case, the generation of burrs and layer peeling when cutting a laminated film including a resin film can be effectively suppressed by the cutting conditions.

  Moreover, it is preferable that a laminated film contains the protective film which protects a resin film as an outermost layer. Even in this case, since the cut surface of the protective film serving as the outermost layer can be a thick shear layer under the above-described cutting conditions, it is possible to effectively prevent layer peeling.

  The laminated film according to the present invention is characterized by being cut using the method for cutting a laminated film.

  In this laminated film, when the cut surface of the laminated film is viewed in the cutting direction (the direction from the upper blade to the lower blade), an interface that transitions from the fracture layer to the shear layer is formed. Thereby, generation | occurrence | production of the burr | flash in a laminated | multilayer film can be suppressed. Moreover, since the cut surface of the film which becomes the outermost layer is a thick shear layer, bending of the film caused by the upper blade entering is suppressed, and layer peeling can be suppressed.

  The laminated film according to the present invention is a laminated film obtained by cutting a laminate of a resin film and an outermost protective film that protects the resin film with a cutting device, and the cut surface is viewed in the cutting direction. Occasionally, the resin film is characterized in that an interface transitioning from the fracture layer to the shear layer is formed.

  In this laminated film, generation | occurrence | production of the burr | flash in a resin film can be suppressed effectively.

  The laminated film according to the present invention is a laminated film obtained by cutting a laminate of a resin film and an outermost protective film that protects the resin film with a cutting device, and the cut surface is viewed in the cutting direction. Sometimes, the resin film is characterized by intermittently including burrs having a length of less than 300 μm.

  In this laminated film, the burr in the resin film is suppressed, so that the yield can be improved.

  According to the present invention, the generation of burrs and peeling of layers can be suppressed by a simple method.

In the example shown in the figure, the laminated film F1 includes a first protective film 21 which is one outermost layer, a first resin film 22 having an adhesion function, and a second having an insulating and shape retaining function. The resin film 23, the third resin film 24 having a different adhesion function from the first resin film 22, and the second protective film 25 serving as the other outermost layer are laminated in this order. .

  The first resin film 22 is formed of, for example, a polyimide film. For example, the tensile strength of the first resin film 22 is preferably 200 MPa to 600 MPa, and more preferably 400 MPa to 600 MPa. The peel strength between the first resin film 22 and the first protective film 21 is preferably 0.01 N / cm to 0.1 N / cm, and 0.05 N / cm to 0.1 N / cm. More preferably, it is cm. Examples of such a film include an adhesive film made of a resin composition described in JP-A-7-242820.

As such a film, the adhesive film which consists of a resin composition described in Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 7-242820 is mentioned similarly to the 1st resin film 22, for example.

  The second protective film 25 is formed of, for example, polyethylene terephthalate, similarly to the first protective film 21. The tensile strength of the second protective film 25 is preferably 48 MPa to 73 MPa, and more preferably 50 MPa to 60 MPa, for example. The peel strength between the second protective film 25 and the third resin film 24 is preferably 0.01 N / cm to 0.1 N / cm, and 0.05 N / cm to 0.1 N / cm. More preferably, it is cm.

  When cutting such a laminated film F1 with the cutting device 1, first, as shown in FIG. 5, the laminated film F1 inserted into the upper blade 7 and the lower blade 8 is the tip of the cutting edge 7a of the upper blade 7. And the tip of the lower blade edge 7b. Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the upper blade 7 enters toward the lower blade 8, and the cutting of the laminated film F1 is started from the second protective film 25 side toward the first protective film 21 side, Finally, as shown in FIG. 7, the upper blade 7 and the lower blade 8 are slidably contacted so that the penetration depth D of the upper blade 7 with respect to the lower blade 8 is 0.7 mm to 1.0 mm. F1 is cut.

  Here, FIG. 8 is a view showing a state of the cut surface of the laminated film F1 when using an upper blade and a lower blade with sharp edges (less than 80 °) as in the prior art. As shown in the figure, when the laminated film F1 is cut by a conventional cutting method, when the laminated film F1 is viewed in the cutting direction (the direction from the upper blade to the lower blade), it is directed from the upper layer to the lower layer side. Thus, the fracture layers 31 and the shear layers 32 are alternately formed. In addition, sagging 33 occurs in the cut surface of the first fracture layer 31, and a return 34 occurs in the cut surface of the last fracture layer 31.

  In this conventional cutting method, the cutting property when the upper blade enters the laminated film F <b> 1 becomes excessive, so that the first shear layer 32 reaches the second resin film 23. For this reason, in the 2nd resin film 23, the interface 35 which transfers to the fracture | rupture layer 31 from the shear layer 32 arises, and the continuous burr | flash 36 will generate | occur | produce along the width direction of the laminated film F1.

  Moreover, in the conventional cutting method, when the upper blade 7 enters, the 1st protective film 21 used as the outermost layer turns into the fracture | rupture layer 31. FIG. For this reason, the first protective film 21 is bent, the peel strength between the first protective film 21 and the first resin film 22 is superior to the adhesive strength, and the first protective film 21 and the first resin film 22. There is a possibility that the layer peeling 37 may occur at the interface with.

  On the other hand, in the cutting method of the present embodiment, the blade edge angle θ1 of the blade edge 7a of the upper blade 7 is 80 ° to 90 °, preferably 80 ° to 85 °, and the blade edge angle of the blade edge 8a of the lower blade 8 is. θ2 is 80 ° to 90 °, preferably 85 ° to 90 °. Moreover, the approach depth D of the upper blade 7 with respect to the lower blade 8 is 0.7 mm-1.0 mm.

  In this cutting method, when the laminated film F1 is viewed in the cutting direction, the rupture layers 31 and the shear layers 32 are alternately formed from the upper layer toward the lower layer side. It is the same as the conventional cutting method in that sagging 33 occurs and a return 34 is generated in the cut surface of the last fractured layer 31. However, in this cutting method, as shown in FIG. 9, the cutting ability when the upper blade 7 enters the laminated film F <b> 1 is suppressed, and the thicknesses of the initial fracture layer 31 and the shear layer 32 are reduced. For this reason, in the 2nd resin film 23, the interface 38 which transfers to the shear layer 32 from the fracture | rupture layer 31 arises, and only the burr | flash 39 less than 300 micrometers in length will be included intermittently.

  Moreover, the thickness of the shear layer 32 becomes thicker than before, and the cut surface of the first protective film 21 that is the outermost layer becomes a thick shear layer 32. Thereby, the bending of the 1st protective film 21 which arises when the upper blade 7 approachs is suppressed, and the layer peeling of the 1st protective film 21 from the 1st resin film 22 can be suppressed.

  In the cutting method according to the present embodiment, the amount of movement of the upper blade 7 with respect to the lower blade 8 is set to 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm. Thereby, generation | occurrence | production of the burr | flash 36 by the cutting conditions mentioned above and the layer peeling 37 can be suppressed more effectively.

  Hereinafter, the evaluation test of the cutting method of the laminated film according to the present invention will be described.

  In this evaluation test, an original fabric roll having a width of 480 mm and a length of 300 m was manufactured by forming an original fabric of a laminated film from raw materials and winding it. And this raw fabric roll was cut | judged with the cutting apparatus, and the division | segmentation roll of width 11mm and length 60m was manufactured by winding on the core material of diameter 3 inches, providing 150g / 11mm tension | tensile_strength. The material of the upper blade and the lower blade was SKH2, and the amount of the upper blade approaching the lower blade was 0.15 mm.

  When observing the cut surface of the split roll, a film having a predetermined length is cut out from the split roll, and fixed with a predetermined jig so that the cut surface can be observed from the side, and a digital microscope (VHX manufactured by Keyence Corporation) is used. -200) was used for imaging at 300 × field of view, and the presence or absence of delamination of the burr (resin exceeding 300 μm in length) in the resin film and the protective film as the outermost layer was confirmed.

  The cutting direction of the split roll can be determined by observing the sagging and returning of the upper and lower ends of the film. In addition, the fracture layer and the shear layer are parts where the fracture layer is not glossy and the film is torn off by the impact at the time of cutting, whereas the shear layer is glossy and the part where shear is remarkable. It is possible to discriminate by the fact that the vertical stripes are inserted along the cutting direction.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram showing the results of the evaluation test. As shown in the figure, the cutting edge angle of the cutting edge of the upper blade is 80 ° to 90 °, the cutting edge angle of the cutting edge of the lower blade is 85 ° to 90 °, and the depth of penetration of the upper blade with respect to the lower blade is 0.7 mm to In Examples 1 to 9 having a thickness of 1.0 mm, neither burr in the resin film nor peeling of the protective film as the outermost layer was observed. On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 1 to 3 in which the blade edge angle of the blade edge of the upper blade is sharper than that of the example, burrs in the resin film were observed.

  In Comparative Example 4 in which the penetration depth was 0.3 mm, the film was not completely cut, and in Comparative Example 5 in which the penetration depth was 0.6 mm, burrs on the resin film were observed. Furthermore, in Comparative Example 6 in which the penetration depth was 1.1 mm, peeling of the protective film as the outermost layer was observed. From the above results, it was confirmed that the cutting conditions of the present invention can suppress both the generation of burrs and the layer peeling.
