Abstract: Method for a safety and testing control for a press, including a hydraulic system with at least one hydraulic cylinder, operated by means of a hydraulic valve controlled by a programmable processing unit where a number of electrical signal inputs and outputs are provided and into which a software program is loaded, where a position sensor is provided that indicates the position of the hydraulic cylinder and where the software application works solely on the basis of an internal timer and the aforementioned position sensor can control the motion of the press as well as a hydraulic press working according to this method and using the software and carrier.

Abstract: A robot includes a wheeled chassis (12), actuators that ensure the movement of the wheeled chassis (12), and command-control element to which sensors send information, characterized in that the wheeled chassis (12) includes two driving wheels (16) that have axes of rotation in a transverse plane and two wheeled elements (22) along at least two axes of rotation and/or pivoting that each have a vertical pivoting axis (24) that is arranged in the longitudinal median plane of the robot, and in that it includes a laser or radar that is arranged in a horizontal slot (38) that is made in the covering of the robot whose bottom has shapes that make it possible to optimize the field of vision of the laser.

Abstract: Improved sheet-metal working machine comprising at least one manipulator for manipulating metal sheets (25), characterised in that the manipulator is provided with at least one stop surface (22-24) against which sheet-metals (25) which are manually supplied can be positioned.

Abstract: A weaving machine for manufacture of a fabric comprising a shed-forming device for forming a shed of warp threads, a selection device 22 comprising at least one rotatable element and a plurality of thread holders 31 for transmitting weft thread there through, the thread holders, being positioned in a row, whereby rotation of the rotatable element 25,26,27,28 causes said row to move for supply of weft thread to a desired position for manufacture of a fabric. The weaving machine of the present invention includes a weaving sley comprising a selection device 22 for supply of weft thread during manufacture of a fabric, a weft insertion mechanism operatively connected to the sley and movable relative to the selection device 22.
