Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a strapping machine with a welding assembly including a counter-pressure plate and a heating element that cooperate to attach two overlapping portions of strap to each other to form a loop of strap around a load. The welding assembly includes various clamps and a leading-strap-end guide that clamp the strap at various points in time during a strapping cycle to prevent the strap from misaligning. After the loop of strap has been formed around the load and the load has been removed from the strapping machine, the welding assembly manipulates the leading end of the strap extending from the strap supply and clamps it via the clamps and the leading-strap-end guide to align the strap for the next strapping cycle.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of managing tenants on a multi-tenant SIP server system has at least two multi-tenant enabled SIP server instances in an SIP server cloud or private datacenter environment. Each SIP server instance of the plurality of SIP server instances is configured as a virtual application. The method contains the steps of initially configuring a first tenant on a first SIP server instance, monitoring the capacity of the first SIP server instance, and monitoring the capacity of a second SIP server instance. The monitoring of the first and second SIP server instances is carried out by monitoring at least one predetermined capacity-relevant value. When the at least one predetermined capacity-relevant value exceeds a predetermined threshold value indicating that capacity resources are low on the first SIP server instance, then the first tenant is moved from the first SIP server instance to the second SIP server instance.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a dental implant apparatus that comprises an implant and an implant support that can be placed next to one another by contact surfaces and that have contours providing security against rotation that are integrally molded on in one piece. The implant and an implant support have mutually matching contours that prevent a rotation of the implant and the implant support when placed next to one another. A tool system for carrying out the described methods and a dental implant apparatus that is manufactured in a corresponding manner are further disclosed. A contact surface of the implant is ground using a first grinding gauge that has a grinding surface having the shape of the contact surface of the implant attachment but not having the shape of the contour providing security against rotation of the implant.

Abstract: A dental implant comprises an implant screw (1) with an external thread (5), an implant abutment (3) and a tightening screw (4) which can be screwed into the implant screw (1) and by which the implant abutment (3) is connectable or connected with the implant screw (1), wherein the implant screw (1) rests against a contact surface (14, 15) of the implant abutment (3) with a contact surface (10, 11). To improve such dental implant, the implant screw (1) and the implant abutment (3) are made of a ceramic material at least in the region of their contact surfaces (10, 11; 14, 15). The contact surface (14, 15) of the implant screw (1) and the contact surface (14, 15) of the implant abutment (3) are ground in against each other.

Abstract: An antibody binding to CCR5 and being glycosylated with a sugar chain at Asn297, said antibody being characterized in that the amount of fucose within said sugar chain is 65% or lower has improved properties in anti-inflammatory therapy.

Abstract: The current invention is related to a conjugate comprising two or more antifusogenic peptides and an anti-CD4 antibody (mAb CD4) characterized in that one to eight antifusogenic peptides are each conjugated to one terminus of the heavy and/or light chains of said anti-CD4 antibody and to the pharmaceutical use of said conjugate.

Abstract: A strap driving device for looping machines has with a strap guiding channel for a looping strap and two pairs of drive rollers engaging in the strap guiding channel. Each pair of drive rollers has a driving roller driven in rotation and a pressing roller to be set to the latter for free running. For being set to the driving roller, the pressing roller is mounted on a rocker.
