Definitions

  • the first patterned roll and the second patterned roll maintain a constant registration of less than about 100 micrometers. In some instances, the first and second microreplicated rolls maintain a constant registration of less than about 75 micrometers, or to less than about 50 micrometers, or less than about 10 micrometers.
  • continuous registration means that at all times during rotation of first and second patterned rolls the degree of registration between structures on the rolls is better than a specified limit.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates another perspective view of the system of FIG. 1 according to the present disclosure
  • FIG. 4 illustrates a schematic view of an example embodiment of a casting apparatus according to the present disclosure
  • FIG. 7 illustrates a schematic view of an example embodiment of a mounting arrangement for a pair of patterned rolls according to the present disclosure
  • An advantage of the present disclosure is that a web having a microreplicated structure on each opposing surface of the web can be manufactured by having the microreplicated structure on each side of the web continuously formed while keeping the microreplicated structures on the opposing sides registered generally to within 100 micrometers of each other, or within 50 micrometers, or within 20 micrometers, or within 10 micrometers, or within 5 micrometers.
  • FIGS. 1-2 an example embodiment of a system 110 including a roll to roll casting apparatus 120 is illustrated.
  • a web 122 is provided to the casting apparatus 120 from a main unwind spool (not shown).
  • the exact nature of web 122 can vary widely, depending on the product being produced, as described above. However, when the casting apparatus 120 is used for the fabrication of optical articles it is usually convenient for the web 122 to be translucent or transparent, to allow curing through the web 122.
  • the web 122 is directed around various rollers 126 into the casting apparatus 120.
  • Accurate tension control of the web 122 is beneficial in achieving optimal results, so the web 122 may be directed over a tension-sensing device (not shown).
  • the liner web is typically separated at the unwind spool and directed onto a liner web wind-up spool (not shown).
  • the web 122 can be directed via an idler roll to a dancer roller for precision tension control. Idler rollers can direct the web 122 to a position between nip roller 154 and first coating head 156.
