Abstract: A conveying system for simultaneously transporting workpieces and workers having a plurality of vehicles, which each have a workpiece receptacle, an assembly platform for workers to move around on, and a separate drive, with which each vehicle can be driven independently of other vehicles of the conveying system. Furthermore, the conveying system includes a plurality of workstations, which are set up for carrying out different work steps. A control device is configured to control the vehicles such that they can pass individually through a different succession of workstations depending on the transported workpiece.

Abstract: An application component for a rotary atomizer, having a base body which has an outflow surface for an application material that is to be atomized. In order to obtain a weight which is as low as possible while providing a highest possible strength, the base body is made in its interior at least in some regions of a material having cellular structures. Possible production methods of the component are, inter alia, an integral foam casting process, in particular an integral metal foam casting process, or a generative process.

Abstract: A method for providing filter modules for a surface treatment system, wherein input data is captured by a data processing device, wherein at least application data of the surface treatment system is used as input data, and wherein one or more pieces of output data relating to the provision of at least one filter module for the surface treatment system is determined using the input data. A computer program product having program code for carrying out the method when the computer program product is stored on a computer-readable data storage device or runs on a data processing device, and to an apparatus for process management having a data processing device, which is designed to carry out the method. Linking of the process of providing filter modules and the process of surface treatment of objects is enabled, whereby efficiency and quality can be improved in both processes.

Abstract: A control process for a conveyor system for conveying pallets or other objects comprises at least two mutually separate free-moving, i.e. not rail-mounted, conveyor units. Of the at least two conveyor units, a first conveyor unit is assigned a superordinate status and a second conveyor unit is assigned a subordinate status. The second conveyor unit therefore follows the first conveyor unit. To this end, the second conveyor unit detects a shift in the mutual relative position of the two conveyor units with the aid of a sensor and modifies its driving parameters depending on the shift in position detected by the sensor.
