Abstract: The invention relates to a beam analysis device (10) for determining the axial position of the focal point (71) of an energy beam or a sample beam (70) decoupled from an energy beam, comprising a beam-shaping device (12), a detector (40), and an analysis device (45). The beam-shaping device (12) is designed to release two sub-beams (72, 73) from the sample beam (70) on a plane of the sub-beam release process (19). The cross-sections of the two sub-beams (72, 73) are defined by sub-apertures (32, 33) which are delimited from each other and which are arranged at a distance k to each other in a first lateral direction (31). The beam-shaping device (12) is designed to image the two sub-beams (72, 73) in order to form two beam spots (92, 93) on the detector and deflect at least one of the two sub-beams (72, 73) in a second lateral direction (37) which is oriented transversely to the first lateral direction (31) in order to form a distance w in the second lateral direction (37) between the two beam spots (92, 93).

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for producing bar packages from individually wrapped sweets. The apparatus comprises a sweets holder extending into the path of movement of the sweet grippers of the packing head and revolving continuously at the same speed as the packing head, a stack former with bar packing means adjacent thereto and transfer means disposed between sweets holder and stack former and which forms from the individually wrapped sweets which are fed continuously and one after another to the sweets holder a rod of sweets in the stack former, the rod or bar of sweets then being enclosed in an outer wrapper in the bar packing apparatus.
