Abstract: A mounting assembly for a machine tool carriage is driven by linear motors (4) at each end guided on fixed parallel rails running parallel to one another. At each end the bridge of the carriage has bearing plates seated on the linear motor friction plates against which it is urged by spring force. As each end of the bridge has a mounting bolt extending through the bridge and bear plate and is pivotably seated in a guide aperture in the carrier. On at least one end of the bridge, the guide bolt aperture is elongated so that the bridge can pivot about the guide bolt at the other end.

Abstract: An assembly for abrasive agent recovery in water jet cutting units including a separator (4) for separating usable abrasive agent from sludge and water and a drying oven (9). A conveyor (6) follows the separator (4) for transporting the overwhelmingly usable abrasive agent separated in portions by the separator (4) and compression rollers (30) adjacent the conveyors press remaining water out of the portions located on the conveyor. The portions on the conveyor are blown by a compressed air unit (8) and a spraying nozzle into the drying oven (9), through which warmed exhaust air, further heated in the drying oven (9), flows. The drying oven (9) consists of a climbing shaft (12), closed via a heater (10) with a screen (11), an eddy chamber (16) connected to a funnel (17) to the lower end the eddy chamber (16), a line (18) from the eddy chamber (16) to a catching tank (19), and a suction connection (20).
