Abstract: A plant for laminating cardboard, and in particular corrugated cardboard, by an adhesive plastics film, is provided. The plant has a supply station configured to supply a succession of single rough cardboard sheets in a feeding direction, an application station arranged in the sheet feeding direction and having an application roller configured to unwrap and apply the adhesive plastics film to a rough cardboard sheet so that the adhesive plastics film adheres to each rough cardboard sheet of the succession of rough cardboard sheets to form a succession of coated cardboard sheets and to advance each coated cardboard sheet of the succession of coated cardboard sheets in the feeding direction. A method for laminating cardboard, and in particular corrugated cardboard, using an adhesive plastics film is also provided.

Abstract: A probe-holder carriage includes a frame which can slide over a highly magnetically permeable support surface and at least one permanent magnet able to interact magnetically with, and couple the robot to, the surface. The permanent magnet is positioned so that one pole grazes the surface and faces the surface at a minimum distance from it. The frame defines a central housing which can support at least one probe.

Abstract: A device for generating electric energy (1) from a renewable source, in particular from wave energy, comprising an oscillating device (2) that can transform the thrust of a natural agent on the first extremity of oscillating device (2) into kinetic energy; a motor unit, operatively connected to a second extremity of the oscillating device in such a way as to receive the kinetic energy transmitted by the oscillating device (2); and an electrical rotating machine operatively connected to the motor unit and suitable for producing electricity when it is set to rotating by the said motor unit.

Abstract: A robot including a frame with wheels moves over a highly magnetically permeable support surface and at least one permanent magnet able to interact magnetically with, and couple the robot to, the surface. The permanent magnet is positioned so that one pole grazes the surface and is free to oscillate so that the pole always faces the surface and is a minimum distance from it.
