Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preventing material to be briquetted from sticking to a roll surface of a briquetting roll press. To be more specific, a sticking of the material to be briquetted to and a sintering of the material on the roll surface are to be prevented. To this end, a lubricant emulsion which is atomized with a gas is sprayed onto the roll surface.

Abstract: The invention relates to a roll press, in particular for processing very abrasive materials, comprising at least two press rolls of which each includes a wear layer arranged on a basic body. The wear layer comprises substantially plane zones of a highly wear-resistant material while the spaces between the highly wear-resistant zones are filled with a material of different wear resistance. Furthermore, the material for the spaces is a composite material which is adapted to be sintered, and the highly wear-resistant zones are formed from hard bodies produced by hot-isostatic pressing. The material for the spaces and the material for the wear-resistant zones are bonded to the basic body in a hot-isostatic pressing process. The wear resistance of the composite material is substantially slightly greater or smaller than the wear resistance of the hard bodies in accordance with a desired profile which will obtained through wear.

Abstract: In eddy current testing of coated metal objects for corrosion, test values are arranged into fields corresponding to metal object and coating characteristics permitting direct readout of corrosion existence underneath coating without requiring coating removal.
