Abstract: A device assembly for controlling an integrated continuous pharmaceutical or biopharmaceutical manufacturing process including a first process equipment for performing a first process step; a second process equipment for performing a second process step subsequent to the first process step; a single measuring unit for measurement of a set of signals of a liquid process medium at a single location, the measured signals depending on first and second parameters; and an evaluation and control unit for evaluating the measured signals to determine values of the first and second parameters. The evaluation and control unit determines first and second corrective feedback based on the values of the first and second parameters, respectively. The evaluation and control unit controls the first process step by providing the first corrective feedback to the first process equipment and controls the second process step by providing the second corrective feedback to the second process equipment.

Abstract: A process of producing a partially hardened metallic formed part comprises: heating a semi-finished product of hardenable hot-formable steel sheet to a hardening temperature; hot-forming the heated semi-finished product in a combined hot-forming cutting device into a three-dimensional formed part; cutting the formed part in the combined hot-forming cutting device; pressure-hardening the formed part in the hot-forming cutting device into a hardened formed part such that a first partial region is hardened by rapid cooling and that a second partial region of the formed part is heat-treated so as to comprise a greater ductility and a lower strength than the first partial region, wherein the operation of cutting the formed part takes place at least in one of the first and second partial region. A combined hot-forming cutting device can be used to produce a metallic formed part.

Abstract: A device for a resin-injection process for manufacturing an elongate fiber-composite component is disclosed having an upper die and a lower die, wherein the lower die forms a mold cavity for receiving a fiber-layer stack. The inner contour of the mold cavity substantially corresponds to the outer contour of the fiber-composite component to be produced. The device includes a gate 4 for introducing a matrix material into the mold cavity 5, and flow ducts which convey the matrix material are provided on the inner walls of the mold cavity. A method for manufacturing elongate fiber-composite components is disclosed, wherein a stack of a plurality of cut-to-size fiber layers is laid up in the mold cavity of a die comprising an upper die and a lower die. A higher fiber density is produced in the end regions of the stack of fiber layers than in the remaining regions when closing the die.

Abstract: A tubular bag packaging for bar-shaped food products is made of a film with first and second longitudinal edges. The film has a first seal section at the first longitudinal edge. A flap section at the second longitudinal edge has a second seal section along the second longitudinal edge. The film is closed at the seal sections by forming a continuous back seam in longitudinal direction as a fold-over seam. The film is sealed at transverse edges by transverse seams. The back seam has end face edges adjoining the transverse seams. The flap section has a linear separation cut as a tearing aid disposed on at least one of the end face edges and extending away from the end face edge in longitudinal direction. The film in the area of the second seal section with linear separating cut has a pressure deformation line that extends in longitudinal direction.

Abstract: An apparatus is used to apply glass elements with a non-mirrored rear side to, in particular, a textile substrate. The predominant proportion of the glass elements is in the form of balls (1). At least 5% of the glass elements comprise flat boundary surfaces, and the glass elements are applied to the front side (3) of a foil (5) to form a surface. At least a portion of the glass elements comprises balls (1) provided with facets (2).
