Abstract: The disclosure relates to a tool with a material layer on one or both sides, said tool having a cutting bell rigidly coupled to an upper forming punch and a drawing cushion coupled to a hold-down device, the upper forming punch and a lower forming punch being movable relative to one another to close the tool, and a first gap present between the cutting bell and the hold-down device when the tool is closed, and an end stop formed by the lower forming punch for a lower pressure piece that can be moved relative to it, that the sheet metal blank can be clamped between the upper and the lower pressure piece, and that during a relative movement between the lower forming punch and the lower pressure piece, the upper and the lower pressure piece remain in their position relative to one another clamping a sheet metal blank.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for bit inversion techniques for memory system repair indications are described. A memory system may store an address of a failed access line or an inversion of the address based on a quantity of bits having a first bit value. For example, if an address has a quantity of ‘1’s that is greater than a threshold, the memory system may store an inversion of the address by inverting the address and setting one-time programmable (OTP) elements to indicate the inverted ‘1’s. The memory system may also store an additional inversion bit to indicate the inversion of the address. For reading the OTP elements, the memory system may interpret an address as inverted or non-inverted based on the inversion bit. The memory system may also indicate one or more steps of a repair process to a host system to facilitate communication during repair procedures.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a conditioning system for regenerating replacement filters, a stackable transport container for use in such a system, and a replacement filter for regeneration by such a method. The following method steps are proposed for this purpose: removal of fluid residues from the replacement filter, flushing the filter element with a flushing agent opposite the direction of flow through the replacement filter when in use, removing the flushing medium residue from the replacement filter, measuring the flow resistance of the filter element, and comparing the measured flow resistance with one or more preset limit values.
