  • Publication number: 20230158592
    Abstract: A machining method, for a CNC-lathe for forming a predefined thread in a work piece, includes the steps of: rotating the metal work piece around a rotational axis thereof; moving a threading tool along a longitudinal direction through a set of passes, wherein the longitudinal direction is parallel/coinciding to the rotational axis; oscillating the threading tool in a radial direction during a first pass and first frequency, the threading tool moving between a first radial distance (D1) and a second radial distance (D2), (D1) being greater than (D2); oscillating the threading tool in a radial direction during a second pass and second frequency, the threading tool moving between a third radial distance (D3) and a fourth radial distance (D4), (D3) being greater than (D4) and smaller (D1), and (D4) being smaller than (D2); and during a last pass moving the tool without oscillation in the radial direction.

  • Publication number: 20210260605
    Abstract: A separation disc for a centrifugal separator is adapted to be included in a stack of separation discs inside a centrifugal rotor for separating a fluid mixture. The separation disc has a truncated conical shape with an inner surface and an outer surface and a plurality of spot-formed spacing members extending from at least one of the inner surface and the outer surface. The spot-formed spacing members are for providing interspaces between mutually adjacent separation discs in a stack of separation discs, and the plurality of spot-formed spacing members are tip-shaped and taper from a base at the surface of the separation disc towards a tip extending a height from the surface. A stack of separation discs, a centrifugal separator and a method for separating at least two components of a fluid mixture are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 10960411
    Abstract: A separation disc for a centrifugal separator and a method for manufacturing the separation disc are disclosed. The separation disc is of metal material and adapted to be compressed in a stack of separation discs inside a centrifugal rotor for separating a liquid mixture. The separation disc has a truncated conical shape with an inner surface and an outer surface and a plurality of spacing members extending a certain height above at least one of the inner surface and the outer surface for providing interspaces between mutually adjacent separation discs in the stack. The spacing members are of such small size that each one of them has a width which is less than 2 mm along the surface of the separation disc. The surface of the separation disc is configured with a distribution pattern of the small-sized spacing members, in such a way as to provide equidistant interspaces in the compressed disc stack.

  • Publication number: 20150313801
    Abstract: The application relates to a method for testing a dental instrument comprising the steps of: a) subjecting healthy dentin tissue free from smear layer(s) to treatment with a dental instrument, thereby yielding treated dentin tissue, b) addition of a composition comprising one or more hydrazine derivative(s) to the treated dentin tissue obtained in step a), c) examining if the treated dentin tissue in step b) is stained by the one or more hydrazine derivative(s), and d) determining whether or not the treated dentin tissue contains a smear layer, wherein said one or more hydrazine derivatives is a compound of formula (I) RNHNH2 wherein R is a chemical group containing a chromophore or forming a chromophore with NHNH2. Further, the application relates to a kit of parts for detection and removal of carious dentin tissue and to a method for detection and removal of carious dentin tissue.

  • Publication number: 20140161745
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a kit of parts for detection and removal of carious dentin tissue comprising: (i) one or more compounds being a hydrazine derivative, and (ii) means for chemical treatment of carious dentin tissue. Further, the invention concerns a preparation containing an active, caries-dissolving two-component liquid in the form of a first active, caries-dissolving component and a second component which reduces the aggressiveness of the active component to mucous membranes, a viscosity increasing substance and one or more compounds being a hydrazine derivative. The hydrazine derivative labels carious dentin tissue selectively and substantially irreversibly in the presence of healthy dentin tissue, which is useful in the context of caries removal.
