Abstract: Control method for a press installation and installation, where the installation includes a servo press, a conveyor device for conveying pieces from a position of origin to the servo press, and a controller. The controller controls the movements of the conveyor device and of the servo press by means of one and the same master signal, causing a synchronized actuation of both. In the method, the pieces are conveyed to the position of origin and during the travel thereof until reaching the position of origin, the passage of the pieces through a predetermined position of reference before the position of origin is detected, and depending on the detection, the master signal is adjusted for adapting the actuation speed of the servo press.

Abstract: A paper scrap pushing structure of a paper shredder, including a rotating shaft, a paper pushing rod, and connecting rods, in which the rotating shaft is arranged under a paper outlet, and is in linkage with a paper shredder cutter shaft through a synchronous transmission device. The paper pushing rod is located on one side of the rotating shaft, arranged in the length direction of the rotating shaft in parallel and connected with the rotating shaft through the connecting rods. The distance from the paper pushing rod to the rotating shaft is smaller than the distance from the lowest portion of the paper shredder cutter shaft to the rotating shaft. When rotating, the rotating shaft drives the paper pushing rod to move in a circumferential direction through the connecting rods, removing paper scraps at the top of a paper scrap pile in a shredded paper waste bin.

Abstract: A device and method enabling industrial continuous pressing, called extrusion of plastically/thermally mouldable substances such as metal, composite metal, plastic, composite or rubber, which is pressed to the profile by a process including a tool fixed member partially predefining the profile shape/cross-section before the profile is finally defined to a cross-section when the material passes rotating dies, which through contact with each other, cancel out main radial forces and the position of which may vary relative to other bearing surfaces or rotary bearing surfaces of the tool with which they define the final shape of the profile. The device and method enable the extrusion of pattern on the inside of hollow profiles and the extrusion of multiple profiles in one tool, because 80-98% of radial bearing forces are eliminated, allowing the installation of rotary dies where not previously possible, and almost unlimited opportunities in increased profile width.

Abstract: The invention relates to an agitator ball mill, with a grinding container, the inner side of which is made of a ceramic material, a rotor arranged inside the grinding container with a grinding gap formed between the surface of rotor and the inner side of the grinding container, a plurality of cams, fitted to the inner side of the grinding container and extend radially inwards. Wherein the ratio of the height of each cam and the inner diameter of the grinding container is ?0.05, and wherein the ratio of the height of each cam and the grinding gap width is ?0.35.

Abstract: A bale drop detection mechanism for use with a baler having a rear aperture. The bale drop detection mechanism including a bale chute coupled to the rear aperture of the baler, where the bale chute includes an upper surface configured to support a bale ejected from the rear aperture thereon. The bale drop detection mechanism also including a bracket coupled to the rear aperture of the baler, a support member extending between and coupled to both the bale chute and the bracket, and a controller in operable communication with the bale chute and configured to detect a bale drop event based at least in part on the level of force being applied to the upper surface of the bale chute.

Abstract: An agricultural system includes a baler with a plunger and a sensor for sensing a plunger-related value; a vehicle including a power source operable to convey power to the plunger; and a CVT arranged to drive the plunger. In order to balance a fluctuating load of the plunger over the working cycle, an electronic control unit (ECU) is coupled to the sensor and to the CVT and is configured to receive the signal from the sensor and to cause the CVT to modify a gear ratio of the CVT based on the signal from the sensor and on a mathematical model defining a CVT gear ratio variation profile derived from an expected load applied by crop on the plunger over its operating cycle.

Abstract: A grinder for beans of plant-based products, for example roasted coffee beans, includes a grinding chamber defined by a cylindrical wall and a pair of opposed grinding wheels located in the grinding chamber. At least one of the pair of opposed grinding wheels rotates. The grinder further includes an electric motor for driving the rotating grinding wheel and a first cooling duct extending in the cylindrical wall between a first inlet and a first outlet. A tubular circuit connected to the first cooling duct includes a pump for circulating fluid, a heat dissipater, at least one valve member, and an electronic control unit for actuating the pump and for turning on the heat dissipater according to a temperature sensed by a temperature sensor.

Abstract: A forming device includes: a first cavity portion in which a pipe portion is formed and a second cavity portion in which a flange portion is formed, the first cavity portion and the second cavity portion being formed between a first die and a second die; a flange adjusting member which is capable of being advanced into the second cavity portion and is capable of being retreated from the second cavity portion, and which adjusts a length of the flange portion; and a control unit. The control unit sequentially performs a first control of allowing the flange adjusting member to be advanced into the second cavity portion, a second control of allowing the gas supply unit to supply a gas so as to temporarily form the flange portion, and a third control of allowing the flange adjusting member to be retreated from the second cavity portion.

Abstract: A refiner plate segment with a continuous transition zone spanning from the periphery or near the periphery of the plate in a substantial spiral toward the axis of rotation of the plate adjacent the breaker bar zone.
