Abstract: A device and a method used when coating a wafer is described. The fluid coating is provided by an inside coating as well as an edge coating. The fluid chocolate in a container is stirred by displacing a vat up and down. During this displacement, the vat will be brought in contact with the wafer, so the chocolate substance, which is provided in there, provides an edge coating. Displacement of the first vat provides a repression of the chocolate substance, which through a nozzle is injected into the wafer in order to provide an inside coating. By repression, a pumping occurs, which is interrupted substantially simultaneously with the edge of the wafer getting in contact with the surface of the chocolate in vat, when it is elevated up towards the wafer, which is suspended in a commonly known apron conveyor (not shown).
Abstract: The invention provides a new and improved method for the preparation of 5-cyano-phtalid, which is a key intermediate in the preparation of the antidepressant compound citalopram.
Abstract: In a method for pouring several moulds in a mould-string plant in the pouring operation, the moulds are produced by compression of sand or similar mould material in a pressing chamber comprising pattern plates 3, 4 for providing impressions in the surfaces of the mould parts for forming the mould cavities 11 and inlet runners 8. The moulds are advanced to a pouring track or guideway, on which the casting moulds are formed by positioning the mould parts close together and the advancement of the casting moulds is stepwise through a pouring station, in which the moulds are filled with molten metal. By providing at least one runner 7 for mutually connecting at least two inlet runners 8 for consecutive mould cavities 11, the mutually connected mould cavities can be filled through a single pouring inlet 8, and unused pouring inlets 8 may be plugged by a suitable plug 14 in order to minimise the amount of molten metal needed to fill the mould cavities 11.

Abstract: The invention relates to measuring instruments, preferably of the kind measuring absorbances, in an object, of electromagnetic radiation in at least two spectral ranges, such as IR instruments, and DXR, meaning Dual X-ray instruments, and more specifically to the determination of properties of food or feed, such as the fat content in milk or meat. The invention relates in particular to a method of providing a correction for a slave instrument of the kind measuring properties of an object by exposing the object to electromagnetic radiation, in particular X-rays, in at least two spectral ranges and obtaining one or more object responses thereto. The responses obtained being preferably based on detecting attenuation and/or reflection and/or scatter of the electromagnetic radiation in/from the object by use of one or more detectors and are obtained in a form where they express properties of the object either directly or via a transformation.
Abstract: A method of recombinantly producing a non-bovine pre-prochymosin, prochymosin or chymosin derived from ruminant species including deer species, buffalo species, antelope species, giraffe species, ovine species and caprine species; Camelidae species such as Camelus dromedarius; porcine species; or Equidae species. The recombinant enzymes are used in milk coagulating compositions in cheese manufacturing based on cow's milk and milk from any animal species which are used in cheese manufacturing including camel's milk.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method and a plant for making carpet squares with a pile side and a back side for providing shape and dimensional stability for the carpet squares. The method includes producing a semi-finished product by tufting, weaving, bonding or other well-known method in the art, as back side coating of the pile side is effected for forming the semi-finished product. The semi-finished product is punched into desired shapes and dimensions for the carpet squares. Felt is used for forming the back side, and this felt is surface coated with thermosetting and water-based latex which is cured so that the semi-finished product is dimensionally stable and rigid before punching out the carpet squares. Hereby it becomes possible to avoid using PVC or bitumen.

Abstract: A method of packaging safety and rescue equipment (1) as well as a package for packaging it, formed by a light-impermeable vacuum package, in whose surface an inspection window (13) is optionally provided as well as a moisture indicator (14) behind this inspection window and a drying means inside the package. The safety and rescue equipment is used in tall structures in particular, such as in windmills, on drilling platforms and in antenna masts. According to the invention, the safety and rescue equipment is protected against the weather, UV light and mechanical impacts that may occur between the line of the safety and rescue equipment and the metal parts to which the line is secured, which means that it is just necessary to inspect it in intervals of about 6 years as against normally 1 year.
