Abstract: A method and device for simultaneous centerless cylindrical grinding of multiple workpieces (11, 12, 13, 14), at least sections of which are rotationally symmetrical, the workpieces are arranged on a support apparatus (200) one behind the other between at least one grinding wheel (110) and at least one regulating wheel (120), and wherein the axis of rotation of the regulating wheel is inclined with respect to a horizontal plane extending parallel to the workpiece axes of rotation and the grinding wheel axis of rotation by an inclination angle (?). During grinding the workpieces are arranged with a height offset relative to each other corresponding to at least a quarter of the inclination angle (?) of the axis of rotation of the regulating wheel with respect to the parallel plane to render the respective bearing angles (?) of the workpieces on the inclined regulating wheel consistent.

Abstract: A device for mass spectrometry in continuous operation can be equipped with a focused electron beam source or laser radiation source. It can further include a vacuum chamber, a stage for placing the specimen, and an ion beam column with a plasma source for producing a primary ion beam and a secondary ion mass spectrometer for secondary ion analysis. The ion beam column is connected to an inert gas source and to a reactive gas source and is modified for simultaneous introduction of at least two gases from the inert gas source and reactive gas source. The secondary ion mass spectrometer is of an orthogonal Time-of-Flight type to ensure the function with the ion beam column in continuous operation.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a centerless cylindrical grinding machine with a grinding wheel and a regulating wheel that can be laterally displaced toward a work piece that can be held between these wheels, and with a rest blade for supporting the work piece that is realized rigid in the vertical direction and arranged and dimensioned such that a rotational axis of the work piece and a rotational axis of the grinding wheel lie in a common plane, wherein a height adjustment of the rotational axis of the regulating wheel beyond the plane is kinematically decoupled from the lateral displacement of the regulating wheel and can be varied in order to position the regulating wheel on the supported work piece.

Abstract: A centerless cylindrical grinding machine, for through-feed and in-feed grinding of various workpieces (8), has a first driven positioning axis XS for a grinding spindle head (2) with a grinding wheel (1) and a second driven positioning axis XR, running parallel to the positioning axis XS, for a regulating spindle head (4), with a regulating wheel (3). The positioning axes XS and XR are arranged perpendicular to the rotation axes (5, 6) or the grinding wheel (1) and the regulating wheel (3). A workpiece support (7) on a carriage (12) and an inner- or outer-acting wheel-true device (9) are arranged between the grinding spindle head (2) and the regulating spindle head (4). During operation, the grinding spindle head (2), the regulating spindle head (4), the workpiece support (7) and the wheel-true device (9) are located within a safety housing (15).
