Abstract: A cage having a plurality of cutouts for receiving rolling bodies of a joint includes a quenched and tempered steel, and the entire cage has a substantially uniform ductility over its cross section without surface hardening. The cage may be produced by forming a closed base body, cutting out a plurality of cutouts, fully hardening the cage by heating and subsequently quenching the cage, and tempering the cage.

Abstract: Cage (1) having a plurality of cutouts (2) for receiving rolling bodies (3) of a joint (4), characterized in that the entire cage (1) has a substantially uniform ductility. The invention also proposes a way of producing the cage (1), in which the cage (1) is fully hardened and tempered. Also described are particular application areas in the automotive sector.

Abstract: An operator control panel for operating machine tools or production machines has a touch-sensitive keyboard with a customer-specific shape and configuration. The control panel includes a face plate with a shape and configuration adapted to a shape of the touch-sensitive keyboard, and frame profiles matching the outside contour of the face plate for receiving the face plate. A user-selectable process for planning the operator control panel before manufacturing is also described. The disclosed operator control panel can be easily and inexpensively customized.
