Abstract: A method for controlling movement of a movably mounted body (14) of a mechanical system (2, 56, 62). The mechanical system (2, 6, 62) includes a drive unit (4, 64), which is operated by a medium, and also a control valve (20, 22). The movably mounted body (14) is driven by the drive unit (4, 64). A drive movement of the drive unit (4, 64) is controlled with the aid of the control valve (20, 22). In order to avoid or reduce excitation of undesired vibrations in the mechanical system (2, 56, 62), it is proposed that the control valve (20, 22) be actuated using a control signal (u(t)) which comprises a first and also a further switching pulse (S1, S3) each having a prespecified pulse duration. The pulse duration of the first switching pulse (S1) is equal to the pulse duration of the further switching pulse (S3). A time difference (?t1-3) between the start of the first pulse (S1) and the start of the further switching pulse (S3) is matched to a natural period duration of the mechanical system (2, 56, 62).

Abstract: Apparatus for the electroplating of thin plastic films (1), which are provided on one or both sides with a conductive coating and, if appropriate, may be provided with through-holes, comprises a conveying device (20 to 23) which moves the plastic film (1) horizontally in the region of the chamber (6) filled with electrolyte. The bonding devices (9 to 16), which bring the plastic film (1) to cathodic potential, are located outside the chamber (6) in the "dry". The conveying device includes at least one pair of squeezing rolls at both the inlet and the outlet of chamber (6), the circumferential speed of the pairs of squeezing rolls increasing in the direction of movement of the plastic film (1).

Abstract: A plant for the manufacture of feedthrough (through-hole plated) printed-circuit boards or multilayers which comprises four modules (1, 11, 16, 21) through which the objects (3) to be treated are passed in a horizontal continuous process. In the first module (1) the surfaces to be coated are conditioned in an alkaline aqueous solution. An oxidative pre-treatment of the surfaces to be coated takes place in the second module (11). In the third module (16) a coating of organic monomers is deposited on the surfaces to be coated. Finally, in the fourth module (21) the deposited monomers are polymerized to form an electrically conductive coating. The printed-circuit boards or multilayers (3) thus treated and made electrically conductive on the lateral surfaces of the drill-holes are then passed on for the metallization of the lateral surfaces of the drill-holes (FIG. 1).
