Abstract
A method for processing a fiber-reinforced resin material is disclosed. A fiber-reinforced resin material is disposed between an upper die having a projection and a lower die having a recess corresponding to the projection. The fiber-reinforced resin material includes reinforced fibers having alternately intersecting warp yarns and weft yarns and are impregnated with a thermoplastic resin. The fiber-reinforced resin material is then heated to soften the thermoplastic resin, and the upper die and the lower die are placed close to each other in order to insert the projection into a gap between the warp yarns and the weft yarns of the reinforced fibers such that the gap between the warp yarns and the weft yarns is expanded to form a through hole.
