Abstract: According to embodiment, a system for assessing a biological analyzer includes: a flowcell; a projection region; a media source configured to project media onto the projection region, wherein the media includes a representation of at least one particle within the flowcell; an imaging device aligned with the projection region, wherein the imaging device is configured to capture at least one image of the representation of the at least one particle; and a processor configured to process the at least one image of the representation of the at least one particle to assess a function of the biological analyzer.

Abstract: A mounting for locking a turbine engine vane that includes a blade and at least one portion outside the blade is provided. The mounting can machine the outside portion on a machine tool and includes a stationary jaw for receiving the vane, the jaw including at least six points that form abutments and define a positioning reference system for the vane. The mounting also includes a movable jaw to ensure, during machining the outside portion, holding the vane against the stationary jaw by a clamping mechanism onto the vane blade. The movable jaw includes a first clamping mechanism exerting pressure on one of the surfaces of the blade, the pressure being substantially perpendicular to the surface. The stationary jaw includes a second clamping mechanism exerting pressure on the leading or trailing edge of the blade, the pressure being substantially oriented in the direction of the trailing or leading edge of the blade.

Abstract: An equipment for coating an airfoil of a turbine blade of a turbine engine in a coating block, including a base on which a molding block is positioned for flow of the coating metal, the molding block including a cavity defining a reference plane on the block for positioning the block in space, wherein the base also includes a cradle supporting the blade via six bearing points defining an orientation plane representative of an angular position of the airfoil relative to a root of the blade. The cradle is rotatably movable relative to the base about an axis oriented so as to be substantially parallel to a direction of a leading edge of the blade, to enable a modification in an angle formed between the reference and orientation planes.
