Abstract: A hollow preform impact extruded from a metal billet to produce a progressing wall at a transition wall thickness. An axially forward portion of the progressing wall is ironed by extrusion past an extrusion point to form a sidewall portion of a lesser thickness. Extruding is stopped while some of the billet remains to form the closed bottom end. The preform has a bottom portion, a sidewall portion and a transition wall portion extending between the bottom portion and the sidewall portion. The transition wall portion is thicker than the sidewall portion and can be formed into at least part of the rim of an expansion shaped container. An impact extrusion punch has a central axis, an axially forward, impact surface for impacting metal to be extruded, a transition region for directing material displaced by the impact surface and a rear extrusion point for ironing material extruded past the transition region.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for pressure forming a metal preform including shock annealing of the preform and subsequently preheating the preform prior to pressure forming. Shock annealing may be carried out as differential shock annealing in which different regions of the preform are annealed to different degrees. Preheating may be carried out by differentially preheating, optionally shock preheating, different regions of the preform for preheating at least those regions of the preform which will be subject to elevated expansion during pressure forming. Shock annealing by induction heating can lower energy consumption, reduce processing times and allow for larger expansion of the preform.

Abstract: A method is described for producing at least one small opening (10) in a layer on a substrate (1), in particular a semiconductor substrate. The substrate (1) is provided on the upper side (2) with at least one tapering recess (6), which has a tip portion (4) and side walls (5), and the upper side (2) of the substrate (1) is covered at least in the region of the recess (6) with a layer (7) made of an etchable material. According to the invention, the opening (10) is produced from the upper side (2) by selective opening of the layer (7) by means of an anisotropic plasma etching method which is matched to the material of the layer (7), the material, the etching gases and the etching parameters being chosen such that in the region of a tip portion (9) of the layer (7), which tip portion (9) lies on the tip portion (4) of the substrate (1), a greater etching rate is produced than in the region of side walls (8) of the layer (7) which lie on the side walls (5) of the substrate (1).

Abstract: A rotor of an electrical machine comprising pole pieces representing laminated packs of flux-conducting lamellae, and permanent magnets directly contacting the pole terminals, gaps being provided between the flux-conducting lamellae. The gaps are provided by projections on the lamellae themselves. The magnetic flux created by the permanent magnets is conducted through the pole pieces which are usually magnetically unsaturated. Since the latter consists of flux-conducting lamellae between which gaps are provided, the weight and inertia moment of the rotor are reduced without reducing the magnitude of the magnetic flux in the machine.

Abstract: A rotor for an electrical machine with tangentially oriented permanent magnets between which pole pieces are arranged, the rotor featuring radial axes of the arcs of the pole pieces arranged between the radial axes of the pole piece cores and the radial axes of the magnets, the above arcs partially and unilaterally overlapping the magnets. The longitudinal axes of the pole piece arcs alternate in position to form a broken line while the longitudinal axes of the pole piece cores and of the magnets are aligned to form continuous lines. This reduces the magnetic dissipation flux and the unevenness of rotation of the machine.

Abstract: A manual crate controller for debugging and testing of CAMAC-modules (CAMAC is an acronym for computer automated measurement and control, an internationally accepted standard for interfacing modular instrumentation with computers through a bused back plane called a dataway) with capabilities for executing a large number of commands with full synchronization in conformity with CAMAC-modes for data exchange, that finds application in minicomputers using the CAMAC-standard. The manual crate controller includes a working and a control station. The latter includes a control panel, a program memory for storing commands entered with keys on the control panel and a start-up logic block. The working station contains a data memory with data inputs connected to the data buses of the CAMAC-main bus, and an input logic with inputs connected to the two most significant buses for function, and to the buses for "BUSY", initiation, resetting, first-strobe and second-strobe of the CAMAC-main bus.
