A picture of a person is photographed by an electronic camera such as TV camera, and output image data signal thereof is differential-operated, so that a line pattern picture signal is produced; then by making a light image of the line pattern picture on a TV set, a photosensitive resin layer is exposed, and by developing it a stamp of the line pattern picture is produced.

Apparatus and method for making a stamp

Laminated core producing apparatus

A component mounting apparatus includes a pushing member for inserting a pair of terminal wires of an electric component into a circuit board and a clinching mechanism operatively provided below the circuit board for bending the terminal wires, extending outwardly from the circuit board, sideways in a direction towards each other for fixedly mounting the electric component on the circuit board. The clinching mechanism includes a pair of arms which come into contact with the terminal wires for bending the same. Each of the arms is provided with a pair of stress detecting elements which detects the stress set up in the arm upon contact between the arm and the terminal wire for detecting whether or not the electric component is properly mounted on the circuit board.
