Abstract: The invention relates to a process for disintegrating compressed bales of coarse, fiberlike, natural or synthetic materials, especially straw bales, and transporting the disintegrated materials to further processing. Bales often contain foreign objects which the invention removes from disintegrated bale material by moving the material disintegrated from the compressed bales to a feeding and collecting auger and sucking off the portions of natural or synthetic fiber intended for further processing from the feeding and collecting auger, while the contaminants collected are moved on by the feeding and collecting auger and discharged.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for depicting one or more biological elements in a basic environment by means of a data processing system comprising the steps of obtaining one or more data sets relating to a biological element, determining at least one first feature element from said data sets, said feature element providing information on a relation between said biological element and said basic environment, obtaining data determining a graphical representation for depicting at least one of the biological elements corresponding to said one or more data sets determining a relation between the graphical representation of said basic environment and said graphical representation on the basis of said first feature element, providing means for effecting that in a graphical representation of said environment generated from said data said graphical representation of said biological element is depicted as located on said display of said basic environment element according to said relation determined o

Abstract: A device is provided for winding a roll of a fabric web made from organic and/or synthetic fibers and which has a relatively high porous material structure and a high volume per unit area. The device includes a winding bed having a plurality of support rollers and a pressure roller located above the support rollers for exerting a pressure force on the fabric web being wound into the roll. An ascending delivery table has a distal end above the pressure roller. The support rollers and the pressure roller are rotated in the same direction during the winding process. A packing station is provided adjacent the winding bed. The direction of rotation of the support rollers is reversed to move the roll from the winding bed to the packing station.
