Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a multilayer biaxially oriented film which comprises at least five layers having the arrangement A/B/C/B/A, the inner layer C being synthesized from an ethylene-vinyl-alcohol copolymer (EVOH layer) and an adhesion promoting layer B made of modified polyolefin being applied on both sides on each surface of the EVOH layer C and a layer A made of a partially crystalline thermoplastic polyolefin being applied to the surfaces of the particular adhesion promoting layers, characterized in that the melts corresponding to the individual layers of the film are coextruded through a sheet die, the multilayer film thus obtained is drawn off on one or more roll(s) for solidification, the film is subsequently stretched in the longitudinal direction and then in the transverse direction using a tenter frame, the EVOH layer C and the adhesion promoting layers B and the layer A are coextruded at the same width, and the tenter hooks of the frame engage all five layers jointly a

Abstract: Recognizing a substrate stock by light-sensitive sensors inside a printing unit, by a sensor that can recognize several ranges of light wavelengths. By separate recognition of various ranges of light wavelengths, a substrate stock is recognized whenever the total reflection capabilities of surface and substrate stock determined across all light wavelengths coincide.

Abstract: The invention relates to a coated, coextruded, biaxially stretched polyolefin film, which contains at least one base layer B made of polyolefins and a top layer Z made of polyolefins modified using maleic acid anhydride, characterized in that a coating made of a primer, which forms the primer layer P, is applied to the surface of the top layer Z, and an inorganic coating made of lithium-potassium polysilicates, which forms a polysilicate layer, is applied to the surface of the primer layer P.

Abstract: To regulate the gloss on a print material, and avoid excess release oil, the properties of the fusing medium are measured, and the gloss on the print material is determined on the basis of the measured properties of the fusing medium.

Abstract: A connector system for a rod-shaped two-ended gas discharge lamp (12) with bases (20) disposed on the connector ends (16) of the discharge lamp (12) and with insert sockets (22) for receiving the bases (20) in a lamp housing (14). Each base (20) is provided with a contact pin (26) linked with a lamp electrode (36) with an insulating cylinder (28) surrounding the contact pin (26) while leaving a lateral connector opening (46) free. Each insert socket (22) is provided with a contact element (58) that can be detachably engaged with the corresponding contact pin (26) through the connector opening (46) of the pertaining base (20) and can be impinged upon with a high voltage. The insert socket is further provided with an insulating body (60) that carries the contact element (58) and covers the connector opening (46) in the connected state.

Abstract: A system for producing cables includes an extrusion apparatus with one or a plurality of extruders and a head through which the line or lines for the cable pass and after which an induction heating apparatus is arranged, whereby downstream of the head and the induction heating apparatus is a suspended vulcanization tube that extends horizontally in the manner of a catenary curve and that constitutes a plurality of tube pieces of which the tube piece adjacent to the head is a telescoping tube enabling access to the head. It is the object to increase the efficiency of a cable production system using measures that make possible earlier and more rapid heating of the insulating layers applied in the head and simpler operation of the system and concurrently permit simpler and more rapid access to the molding die when cleaning the head and when a tool is being exchanged.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a pololyfin film for scaling purposes. The film consists of a base layer which is made of polyolefin polymers and at least one outer covering layer. The covering layer contains at least 50 wt. % of a polyolefin modified by maleic acid anhydride, in relation to the weight of the covering layer, and undergoes flame surface treatment on the surface of said covering layer.

Abstract: Recognizing a substrate stock by light-sensitive sensors inside a printing unit, by a sensor that can recognize several ranges of light wavelengths. By separate recognition of various ranges of light wavelengths, a substrate stock is recognized whenever the total reflection capabilities of surface and substrate stock determined across all light wavelengths coincide.

Abstract: The invention relates to a traction slip control method for an automotive vehicle wherein a traction slip control phase for a respective drive wheel is activated by way of a control strategy when the traction slip of said wheel exceeds a predeterminable slip threshold value This method includes a reference transverse acceleration that is recorded for a cornering maneuver to be expected, then an actual transverse acceleration is determined, a difference between the reference transverse acceleration (ay-ref) and the actual transverse acceleration (ay-ist) is calculated, and it is determined whether the amount of the difference exceeds a limit value, and wherein in the case when the amount of the difference exceeds the limit value, the control strategy is modified so that a higher torque can be achieved at least on two wheels than in the case that the amount of the difference does not exceed the limit value. Further, the invention provides a control circuit that implements the above method.

Abstract: The invention relates to an irradiating device, especially for irradiating with ultraviolet light substrates which are provided with a coating that can be cured using ultraviolet light. The inventive device comprises a longitudinally extending radiation source (12) which is provided for emitting ultraviolet and/or visible electromagnetic radiation, which is arranged in a housing (10) between a reflector (18) and a housing opening (14) that can be aligned with an object (16) to be irradiated, and which is preferably configured as a tubular mercury discharge lamp. The inventive device also comprises a cooling system (20) for dissipating the waste heat generated by the radiation source (12). The aim of the invention is to create a compact modular construction and, optionally, an oxygen-reduced illumination zone.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a polyolefinic film, with at least one layer, which is made from polyolefinic polymers, whereby said polyolefinic film comprises a bonding layer as outer layer. Said bonding layer contains at least 50 wt. % based on the weight of the layer of a maleic anhydride modified polyolefin. The film is used for printing, metallising or coating.

Abstract: Monitoring and/or adjusting the forming of a printed color image by an image forming apparatus, preferably of a color image formed electrophotographically with toner. Light reflected or reflected back from a fixed toner image of a finished printed image is captured by a sensor device still within the image forming apparatus (online), the sensor device or its capturing result being used for controlling or adjusting the image forming process.
