Abstract: Components having ceramic bases provided with a metalized structure on at least two opposite and/or juxtaposed faces at the same time, wherein metal in the form of pastes, films or sheets is provided for metallization and is applied to the surfaces of the ceramic base to be provided with a metalized structure.

Abstract: A component having a ceramic base the surface of which is covered in at least one area by a metalized coating, the ceramic base being spatially structured and the partial discharge resistance between at least two layers of a metalized structure produced from the same or different materials and between the layer of a metalized structure and the ceramic being <20 pC.

Abstract: A component which dissipates heat produced during operation thereof has a ceramic base the surface of which is covered in at least one area by a metalized coating, the ceramic base being spatially structured.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the environmentally sound disposal of air/solvent mixtures made of combustible gaseous, vaporous or liquid waste products, using a combustion unit for burning the air/solvent mixtures while removing the environmentally compatible exhaust air developing in the combustion unit and the waste heat that is produced.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the environmentally sound disposal of air/solvent mixtures which are made of combustible gaseous vaporous or liquid waste products, using a fuel cell system for the recycling of the air/solvent mixtures while removing the environmentally compatible exhaust air developing in the fuel cell system, the waste heat that is produced and the electric power that is produced.

Abstract: An interferometric device for position measurement of an element moveable in a plane is disclosed. A laser light source measures the position of the moveable element and emits the required measuring light. A beam splitter splits the measuring light into a first partial beam path and a second partial beam path, which each impinge on a reflecting surface of the moveable element via an interferometer. Herein, at least the beam splitter, which splits the measuring light into a first partial beam path and a second partial beam path, and the beam splitter, which directs the third partial beam path onto an etalon via an interferometer, have a respective beam trap associated with them, which traps the light returning from the respective interferometers.

Abstract: A method of introducing weakening into a solid or a workpiece, preferably a ceramic or a glass, by an energy source which, by means of specific energy input acting locally, weakens the solid or the workpiece at the location of the energy input. A chromophore substance is applied to the location of the energy input before or at the same time as the energy input, such that a physical, chemical or biological visible change in the solid body or the workpiece is achieved at the location of the energy input.

Abstract: A carrier body for electrical or electronic component elements or circuits, the carrier body being electrically nonconductive or virtually nonconductive. In order to simplify the carrier body while at the same time providing extremely improved heat dissipation, the invention process that the carrier body is provided integrally with heat-dissipating or heat-supplying cooling elements.

Abstract: A method of operating a printer in which, after positioning of a paper web for printing and the printing of the web, the last printed sheet is removed and the leading edge of the web is retracted in a park position. The retraction of the leading edge of the web from this proper printing position until it passes a sensor is detected and this difference in displacement of the drive is stored for correction of advance of the same web from the parking position subsequently.

Abstract: A control device for timed control of a filling pressure during filling of a press die with a pasty or slip-like mass has a pressure sensor detecting a pressure in the press die, a threshold stage to which a corresponding pressure signal is fed from the pressure sensor, a timing element on which the threshold stage acts to maintain a filling pressure at an intended value during determinable holding time, a second threshold stage to which the pressure signal can be fed, and a logical gate to which outputs of the two threshold stages are connected and which generate a trigger signal for timing element when a particular value simultaneously exceeds a first threshold value of the first threshold stage and falls below a second threshold value of the second threshold stage.
