  • Publication number: 20090044898
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a multimaterial component or construction, whereby a body is formed in said method of a basic material and at least one piece formed of a wear resistant material being joined to said body at a temperature of not more than 80% of the lowest melting temperature of the materials to be joined. The invention also comprises the use of a multimaterial component or construction manufactured by means of said method.

  • Patent number: 7284590
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing cast components, in which method the cast mold and/or macroscopic inserts to be placed either totally or partly inside thereof are left totally or partly as a part of the final component to be used, after the casting the piece is further treated with temperature and/or pressure in order to improve the compactness of both the cast materials and the materials acting as inserts and to improve the bond between the cast material and the solid material attached thereto, and the portion of the solid or partly solid material (inserts) to be placed into the cast mold and remaining in the final component, inclusive the portion of the mold eventually remaining in the final component, of the weight of the total component is more than 3 percent by weight.

  • Publication number: 20060276317
    Abstract: A heatable and/or coolable roll, i.e. a thermo roll, of a fibrous web machine for the treatment of a fibrous web, is, for example, for pressing and/or calendering the fibrous web in contact, i.e. in a nip, between the thermo roll and a backing member which is in contact with the thermo roll or for drying or cooling the fibrous web on the shell surface of the thermo roll. A semi-finished product of a thermo roll is manufactured using a thermo roll.

  • Publication number: 20060110614
    Abstract: The invention relates to method for manufacturing multimaterial parts, the multimaterial used in the method containing a tough material component (B) and a hard, wear-resistant material (A), in which method a green body is prepared from the tough material component (B) and the hard material component (A) by isostatic hot pressing into a substantially densified green body, whereupon the green body is hot worked up to hot working degree 2 minimum so as to obtain a desired distribution between the tough material component (B) and the hard material component (A). The invention also relates to a multimaterial part manufactured using the method.

  • Publication number: 20050238155
    Abstract: A method provides information on services in a communication system. The method includes obtaining information on services provided via the communication system. The method also includes receiving a request for a service from user equipment. The method also includes verifying, using the information, whether the service is available for the user equipment at a predetermined level. The method also includes performing a further action based on a result of the step of verifying. Furthermore, a service analyzer and a portal are configured to execute the method.

  • Publication number: 20050172777
    Abstract: A blade (10) for use in the slitting of a paper or board web has a hub part (11) and a blade part (15). The blade part (15) is releasably secured by means of securing members (12, 13) to the hub part (12). The securing members (12, 13) are formed so as to distribute and/or maintain the axial load enabling the joint to withstand high circumferential speeds.

  • Publication number: 20040142200
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing erosion-resistant wearing parts and a wearing part are disclosed, whereby the wearing part manufactured according to the invention comprises at least one hard powder composition (A) and at least one ductile powder composition (B) that together are densified in a single pressing step into an entirely dense product. According to the method, the temperature coefficient of the hard powder composition (A) is controlled by keeping the temperature coefficient of the hard powder composition smaller than that of the encapsulating powder composition (B), whereby the hard powder composition (A), with the exception of the outer erosion-subjected surface of the wearing part, remains entirely encapsulated by powder composition (B) so effectively that the imposed eroding forces cannot essentially extrude the hard powder composition (A) out from the wearing part through its erosion-subjected outer surface.

  • Patent number: 5623726
    Abstract: The invention relates to the manufacture of paper machine roll shells of stainless steel. According to the invention, powder is made of molten steel by gas-atomizing, a roll shell preform is made of the powder, and the roll shell preform is machined to form a roll shell. The main advantage of the rolls shells according to the invention is their good corrosion fatigue resistance.
