Abstract: In a press bending arrangement for an aluminum profile, especially for manufacturing the equator profile for an LNG-tank, the press is connected to control and measuring devices in such a manner, that the reflection of the workpiece is taken into account both in bending the profile and in determining the bending control based on measurements being made.

Abstract: In a procedure for washing cellulose in a drum a continuous web is conducted through a plurality of mutually separated washing zones and in the procedure the pure washing liquid is introduced at the washing step which is last in the direction of travel of the web. This liquid displaces suspension fluid contained in the web and the latter is urged with the aid of a drained fluid pipe system to a washing step located upstream in the web's direction of travel and the displaced suspension fluid repeats the displacement washing process performed by the pure washing liquid in the last washing step. This procedure is repeated until each washing step has received a flow of washing liquid. To utilize the concentration raising capacity of the washing procedure and apparatus, before discharging the pulp, part of the drained fluid pipe system is emptied and the drained fluid therefrom obtained is returned to an earlier washing step.

Abstract: Disk filter comprising a tank for the liquid to be filtered, a tubular shaft carrying, spaced in its longitudinal direction, filtering disks which consist of functionally independent, hollow filtering sectors communicating through holes made in the mantle of the tubular shaft and located at the tips of the sectors with the interior space of the tubular shaft, the different filtrates coming from the filtering sectors being removed from the different chambers with the aid of vacuum introduced into said interior space. The chambers are established when within the tubular shaft there is placed a slide member which is stationary as the shaft rotates and which divides the interior of the shaft in the transversal direction into sectors and which is confined by ends at either of the shaft.
