Abstract: A method for loading a medicine transport plate with one or more medicine items using a docking station includes the steps of moving a preparation release mechanism of a docking station into a preparation holding state; inserting the one or more medicine items into one or more preparation compartments in the docking station; loading the medicine transport plate into the docking station; and moving the preparation release mechanism from the preparation holding state into a preparation release state to release the one or more medicine items from the preparation compartments.

Abstract: A Method for loading a medicine transport plate with one or more medicine items using a docking station includes the steps of a) moving a preparation release mechanism of a docking station into a preparation holding state; b) inserting the one or more medicine items into one or more preparation compartments of a plurality of preparation compartments in the docking station; c) loading the medicine transport plate into the docking station; and d) moving the preparation release mechanism from the preparation holding state into a preparation release state to release the one or more medicine items from the preparation compartments.

Abstract: The invention relates to an assembly and a method for manufacturing a green tire and/or a green air spring. The device comprises a template having a shaping surface (2) for placing a tire component thereon comprising a layer of unvulcanized rubber for the green tire and/or green air spring. The shaping surface (2) is provided with an attachment surface (9) for at least temporarily retaining at least a leading section of the tire component. The attachment surface (9) comprises a number of adhering surface sections (3) with non-adhering surface sections (4) placed in between them, wherein the non-adhering surface sections (4) are at least partially receded with respect to the adhering surface sections (3). In one embodiment the attachment surface (9) comprises a substantially saw-tooth-shaped cross-section.
