  • Patent number: 11987414
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a capsule filling machine for filling two-piece capsules that each include a capsule upper part and a capsule lower part. The capsule filling machine includes a measuring device, the measuring device including a capacitive measuring system. The measuring device is downstream of the closing station. The capacitive measuring system includes a measuring section, along which the mass of the filled, closed capsule can be measured via the capacitive measuring system. The measuring device includes a guide device for the closed capsule, the guide device being configured to convey the filled, closed capsule from the capsule segment to the measuring section of the capacitive measuring system.

  • Patent number: 10480988
    Abstract: A calibration unit is for a capacitive measuring system in a metering installation, or a metering installation for in particular solid pharmaceutical dosage units, and to an associated method for metering. The calibration unit includes a test body, a drive for the test body, and a guide for the test body. The guide has a first terminal position, a second terminal position, and a guided section that runs between the two terminal positions. The drive is configured for moving the test body along the guided section in a reciprocating manner between the two terminal positions. The capacitive measuring system is calibrated via the calibration unit. The dosage units are then metered via the metering installation and checked for a properly metered mass via the calibrated capacitive measuring system.

  • Patent number: 9065055
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing doped organic semiconductor materials as well as a formulation which may be utilized in that method. The doped organic semiconductor materials are prepared by preparing a solution or suspension containing at least one dopant precursor, at least one organic material to be doped, and a solvent. The solution or suspension is then applied onto a substrate. After removing the solvent, the dopant precursor is converted into a dopant by application of activation energy. The dopant precursor, which is a dimer, oligomer, polymer, dispiro compound, or polycycle, is cleaved by the application of activation energy.
