  • Publication number: 20180119246
    Abstract: A method of generating twin lamellas in a metal body includes the steps of introducing the metal body into a chamber, filling the chamber with a cooling medium having a temperature that will enable generation of twin lamellas in the metal body upon deformation thereof, and deforming the metal body while the latter is surrounded by the cooling medium. The cooling medium surrounds the metal body upon deformation of the latter is in a gaseous state. The present disclosure also relates to a device for generating twin lamellas in the metal body, the device including a chamber, a chamber inlet connected to a cooling medium source, and a deformation device arranged to deform the metal body. The deformation device is positioned inside the chamber so that the metal body will be surrounded by the cooling medium in a gaseous state while being deformed by the deformation device.

  • Patent number: 8443757
    Abstract: A method and system for cleaning of milking systems—creates slugs of cleaning liquid in milking systems in response to the detection of the presence of cleaning liquid. The milking system includes a milk conduit (3), a liquid sensor (4) for detecting the presence of liquid in the milk conduit (3), a vacuum source (7) for applying a suction pressure to the milk conduit and cleaning equipment (12, 13) including elements supplying cleaning liquid into the milk conduit and an air injector (16) arranged to supply air into the milk conduit, the system being adapted to supply cleaning liquid into the milk conduit, apply a suction pressure to the cleaning liquid and supply air so that a liquid slug is created that flushes the milk conduit. The liquid sensor (4) is adapted to sense the presence of cleaning liquid supplied to the milk conduit, and the system is adapted to supply the air based on the detection of the presence of cleaning liquid.

  • Patent number: 8381680
    Abstract: A method and arrangement for monitoring the supply of cleaning liquid from a cleaning line to a milking system, where the milking system includes at least two milking stations and milk conduits, and the cleaning line includes supply conduits connectable to the milk conduits at the milking stations and arranged to apportion cleaning liquid to the milking stations, so that cleaning liquid flows through the milking stations. The method includes measuring a value of the flow of the cleaning liquid through the respective milking stations by a respective flow sensor and transferring the values of the measured flows to a control unit. The arrangement includes a first control unit and flow sensors and a respective flow sensor is adapted to measure a value of the flows of cleaning liquid through a respective milking station, and provide the values to the control unit.
