Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an application apparatus for applying a sealing profile to a bodywork part, comprising a roller head, which is designed to apply the sealing profile to a receiving surface of the bodywork part, and at least one further functional unit for performing a further station step, wherein the at least one further functional unit is respectively designed as a functional module from a set of functional modules.

Abstract: Disclosed therein are the methods of cleaning an automated recirculation system or equipment and using the waste effluent produced therefrom for use without the need to reduce the conductivity of such waste effluent prior to use. The method comprises cleaning the automated recirculation system or equipment with a cleaning solution having a conductivity of up to 8 mS/cm at 25° C., and generating a waste effluent. The waste effluent may be used as irrigation water without reducing conductivity of the waste effluent prior to irrigation use. Suitable automated recirculation systems or equipment may be those used in the processing operation of a processed food, dairy, brewing, or beverage. The automated recirculation system may be a clean-in-place (CIP) system.

Abstract: Analyzers, methods and systems for providing a digital fingerprint or signature for assessing process information and improving process operations using such information. In particular, such analyzers, methods and systems use a unique analysis procedure for identifying, for example, one or more constituents of an intermediate and/or a product-based process stream and providing process operating parameters specific to such one or more constituents. The analyzers, methods and systems may additionally provide dilutions or concentrations of such constituents to improve the understanding of the process operation and how such process operation should be adjusted in response.
