Abstract: In a molder, at least one rotatably driven tool (7, 8, 10, 11) is used to produce the structure (27) or contour on the workpiece (1) by workpiece removal. The workpiece positions along the workpiece (1) for producing the structure or contour are set depending on the data of the workpiece (1) and of the tool (7, 8, 10, 11). The data are transmitted to the machine controller which processes the CNC program based on the data during the passage of the workpiece (1) through the molder and moves the tool (7, 8, 10, 11) into the required positions via CNC drives depending on the workpiece position. The workpiece position is sensed during the passage of the workpiece (1) through the molder. In order to sense the workpiece position in the molder, at least one measuring element (18) is provided upstream and downstream of the tool (1), said measuring element (18) being connected to the machine controller and supplying signals that describe the advancing travel of the workpiece (1) to the machine controller.

Abstract: Slave cylinder for a pressure medium-actuated system for actuating the friction clutch of a motor vehicle, the slave cylinder including a cylinder housing, which is concentric to a transmission shaft and in which a ring-shaped piston is held, the piston being connected to a clutch-release bearing for actuation of the friction clutch. The cylinder housing is supported on a wall of the transmission to absorb the actuating forces acting on the clutch-release bearing by a mount which can absorb the wobbling movements of the cylinder housing. Wear on the guide and on the seals between the piston and the cylinder housing is reduced due to the ability of the clutch-release bearing to wobble jointly with the piston and the cylinder housing of the slave cylinder around a mount of spherical design and thus to its ability to follow the movements acting on it.
