Abstract: A separation assembly for use with handheld metal detectors. According to one aspect, the separation assembly is mounted to a handheld metal detector having a blade containing transmission and receiver components of the handheld metal detector. The separation assembly includes at least a first separation member formed of a nonferromagnetic material, and the first separation member is spaced a lateral separation distance from the blade of the handheld metal detector. The separation assembly may be incorporated as a permanent and integrated part of a handheld metal detector, or separately manufactured and installed on a handheld metal detector.

Abstract: A Graphical User Interface (GUI) for use in project management is described. The GUI comprises: an interface module arranged to receive low-level user information relating to project events and high-level information relating to at least one project overview attribute; and a page generation module arranged to generate on a single hierarchical display page of the GUI: a structured detailed view portion for displaying editable project details within a data compilation with the low-level event-related user information represented as graphical components within the data compilation; and a management overview portion for displaying an editable project overview with the high-level information provided therein.

Abstract: A device that is useful for applying pre-threaded closures onto threaded containers with improved sensitivity. The device allows for the adjustment of the torque that is required for capping containers such that variable sizes and variable types of containers can be capped.
