Abstract: A combination of a tractive machine and plow, has a driver assistance system having an input/output unit. The plow is adjustable with machine parameters, wherein a portion is manually adjustable and/or automatically adjustable by means of the tractive machine. A plow adjust assistant determines in a dialog with an operator in a plurality of dialog steps, optimized machine parameters of the plow and/or of the tractive machine that are to be adjusted. The plow adjust assistant automatically adjusts a portion of the machine parameters determined in the first dialog step and/or gives the operator a portion for adjusting and determines further optimized machine parameters of the plow based on these machine parameters and gives these further optimized machine parameters of the plow to the operator for adjustment of the plow in a second dialog step and/or automatically adjusts them at the plow.

Abstract: A rotary tablet press with a rotor having a die plate with die bores for producing pressed articles, and with a deflector device for deflecting the pressed articles, which are produced in the die bores and located on the upper face of the die plate in the production process, to an outlet device for the pressed articles, the outlet device includes a conveyor belt for taking over and transporting the pressed articles deflected by the deflector device, wherein the conveying speed of the conveyor belt being adjustable according to the speed of the rotor and/or being adjusted by means of the control device according to the speed of the rotor.

Abstract: A rotary tablet press including a rotor which has a die plate for producing tablets inside die openings by means of press punch pairs, and with a discharge device being assigned to a tablet outlet for supplying tablets either singulated to a first tablet channel or as a tablet stream to a second tablet channel, wherein the tablet outlet has at least one first outlet channel for good tablets and a second outlet channel for faulty tablets, the first and/or the second tablet channel have at least one channel through-passage enclosed by lateral boundaries, wherein a sensor device which is coupled to the process control device and which is configured for scanning the entire cross section of the channel through-passage is assigned thereto for generating a sensor signal when a body passes through the associated channel through-passage.

Abstract: A rotary tablet press, having a rotor, which is driveable about a vertical axis of rotation and has a die plate with die bores for producing tablets inside the die bores by means of punch pairs, having at least one filling station, having at least one pressing station, and having at least one tablet outlet for removing the produced tablets out of the rotary tablet press, with which is associated a discharging device, by way of which tablets, in dependence on a control signal, can be supplied as single tablets to a first channel or as a tablet stream to a second channel in the tablet outlet. In order to enable increased production output with improved adherence to the demands on the tablets, a weighing device with a weighing cell is incorporated into the tablet outlet, tablets from the first channel being suppliable to the weighing device by means of a supply channel.

Abstract: A switching unit and a method for operating the same as well as a device for use in the switching unit, where the switching unit comprises a ring-shaped bus for transporting the data packets and a daisy-chain type bus for transporting controlling device information for use in a later switching routing. The two busses are driven synchronously. This systolic nature of the busses ensures optimal bandwidth of the switching.
