Abstract: The invention relates to a cutter knife (8), a cutter head disk (1) and a system including the inventive cutter head disk and the inventive knife, wherein the cutter knife includes a longitudinal bore enabling only one cutter knife to be arranged on the cutter head disk, the longitudinal bore thereof being compatible with the pin. The scaling on the longitudinal bore makes it possible to verify the position of the cutter knife in relation to the cutter head disk.

Abstract: The invention relates to continuously determining the fat content of meat. A conveyor belt is used on which the pieces of meat to be examined are advanced past a radiation source serving as a fat analyzing means. The attenuation of an X-ray beam emitted from the radiation source is measured by a detector to determine the fat content. A weighing device continuously determines the weight of the quantity of meat located on the conveyor belt at the time of the measurement. This also makes it possible to calculate the absolute fat content. The invention also relates to a method for automatically setting a defined fat content in a mixer. The examined meat is transferred from the conveyor belt and into the mixer. The accumulated fat content in the mixer is calculated, compared with a set value, and the conveyor belt is loaded with lean or fatty meat according to the result of this calculation.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a composition containing synergistic amounts of antioxidants selected from the group consisting of: Vitamin E Beta-carotene Vitamin C Selenium an extract of Lycopersicum esculentum an extract of Vitis vinifera, and optionally a suitable carrier material for preparing a pharmaceutical composition, food supplement or cosmetic for protecting the skin from UV rays, ageing under the effect of UV rays and/or inflammatory processes.

Abstract: A strand pulling-off method for a metal strand, particularly a steel strip, cast in a curved continuous casting plant, wherein the metal strand is initially vertically pulled from a casting mold, wherein a curved shape is then imparted on the metal strand in a curved entry driver driven with an entry torque, and wherein, after reaching a horizontal strand travel direction, the metal strand is finally straightened in a curved exit driver driven with an exit torque. An entry speed is assigned to the curved entry driver and an exit speed is assigned to the curved exit driver, the entry torque and the exit torque are determined, and the exit speed is adjusted in such a way that the entry torque as well as the exit torque have a positive value.
