Abstract: A modular wire processing center comprises a plurality of individual processing modules that are controlled by a central control unit. The plurality of processing modules includes an automatic crimper and at least two further processing modules selected from the group of an automatic cutter, a marking system, a stripping unit, a terminal feeding device, a wire feeding unit and a wire discharging/bundling unit. The processing modules are designed as independently operable individual processing units and are positioned with the control unit on a mobile platform.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pulverulent composition comprising a powder based on at least one polyaryl ether ketone, said composition having at least a first endothermic peak and a second endothermic peak, the first endothermic peak having a peak temperature strictly greater than 280° C., and the second endothermic peak having a peak temperature equal to a value of 200° C. to 280° C.; the endothermic peaks are measured on a thermogram obtained by differential scanning calorimetry, according to the standard ISO 11357-3: 2018, on first heating, using a temperature ramp of 20° C./minute. The invention also relates to a method for the electromagnetic radiation-mediated layer-by-layer sintering construction of a three-dimensional object from the pulverulent composition, to a method for determining the minimum construction temperature to be used, and also to objects that may be manufactured via this construction process.

Abstract: A seal includes a supporting ring and at least one sealing ring. The at least one sealing ring has a sheath. The at least one sealing ring and the supporting ring are interconnected. The supporting ring has an outer periphery and is, at least in part, surrounded on the outer periphery by the sheath of the at least one sealing ring in a radial direction. The at least one sealing ring has at least one dynamically loaded sealing lip, which is arranged on a side of the at least one sealing ring facing radially away from the sheath. The at least one sealing ring includes an electrically conductive polymer material. The sheath and the sealing lip transition into one another as one piece.

Abstract: A method for producing a powder comprising at least one polymer for use in a method for the additive manufacture of a three-dimensional object is described. The method includes the step of mechanically treating the powder in a mixer with at least one rotating mixing blade, wherein the powder is exposed to a temperature TB and TB is at least 30° C. and is below the melting point Tm of the polymer (determined according to DIN EN ISO 11357) if the polymer is a semi-crystalline polymer, or wherein TB is at least 30° C. and wherein TB is at most 50° C. above the glass transition temperature Tg of the polymer (determined according to DIN EN ISO 11357) if the polymer is a melt-amorphous polymer.
