Abstract: Audio data is generated for a vehicle audio system using a portable computing device. Vehicle parameter data is received at the portable computing device from a vehicle. Sound parameter data is generated from the vehicle parameter data. Audio data is generated using a synthesizer based on the sound parameter data. The generated audio data is transmitted to the vehicle audio system from the portable computing device.

Abstract: A method is proposed for operating a vacuum handling device controlled by a programmable controller (39) which can be connected to a machine controller (10), with at least one vacuum generator (28) and with a number of gripper modules (20), which are connected to the vacuum generator and are each equipped with a first pressure sensor (46) and with a control valve (44) for the vacuum in the gripper module, and which are connected to the programmable controller. The control valve in the gripper module is closed in a first switching state (vacuum on) of the programmable controller and is detected up to the control valve (44) by means of a second pressure sensor (78) in the vacuum generator.

Abstract: A vacuum gripper for suctioning work pieces, having a vacuum connection, a flexible suction body and a suction body holder, where the side of the suction body facing the work piece has a sealing lip bounding a vacuum chamber, and the vacuum chamber is connected to the vacuum connection. The suction body has a contact surface abutting the work pieces with prevailing vacuum in the vacuum chamber. The contact surface is provided with elements, where the elements are have a rod or pin-shaped configuration and form a microstructure.

Abstract: The invention concerns an underpressure valve with a multi-part housing and a disc-like closing body which has at least one opening, and with an opening-free section disposed in alignment with the flow channel of the housing.

Abstract: Under pressure handling device comprising an under pressure generator, a device for controlling the under pressure and several grippers which engage on a work piece to be handled, wherein each gripper is provided with a device for controlling the under pressure, a sensor for detecting state variables on the gripper and an evaluation electronics to which the device for controlling the under pressure and the sensor are connected.
