  • Publication number: 20200377252
    Abstract: A label printing system and method are generally provided. The label printing system may be optimized for deployment at a user location. The label printing system may comprise a label print engine configured to receive a formatted digital data related to a label and print the related label on media. The label printing system may further comprise a finishing machine configured to receive a printed label from the label print engine and perform a finishing task on one or more printed labels. A central processor may be connected to the label print engine and the finishing machine and configured to send label print and finishing information to the label print engine and the finishing machine respectively. A user portal may be connected to the central processor. The user portal is configured to send an art file related to a label to be printed to the central processor.

  • Patent number: 9658280
    Abstract: A method for qualifying circuit board fabrication, assembly, and repair processes includes establishing primary assembly process specifications and secondary repair process specifications. A group of test circuit boards is assembled using the primary assembly process, with each board having a section of components linked together to provide functional circuits and a section of components daisy-chained together to provide non-functional circuits, and with each section also including SIR test patterns and CAF test patterns. A subset of the assembled test boards is then repaired using the secondary repair process. A sample of each set of the test boards is exposed to test conditions including thermal cycle test conditions, humidity test conditions, and vibration test conditions. Inner layer build quality, surface cleanliness, circuit performance, and solder joint quality are then evaluated using the provided circuitry.

  • Patent number: 6710048
    Abstract: The present invention provides pyrazine derivatives that inhibit tyrosine kinase activity. Certain pyrazine derivatives are selective inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor tyrosine kinase. The present invention also provides pharmaceutical formulations containing the pyrazine derivatives and methods of use of these formulations as anti-tumor agents and to treat solid-tumor cancers, angiogenesis, diabetic retinopathy, rheumatoid arthritis, endometriosis and psoriasis.
