Abstract: Disclosed is a new type of clearing solution. In one embodiment, the disclosed clearing solution is a chlorobutanol in a base solution; wherein the base solution is a concentrated solution of lactic acid in water with a range of concentrations between eighty and ninety-two percent (80-92%). Suitably, the clearing solution is made in three steps. First, a base solution with a concentration of eighty to ninety-two percent (80-92%) of lactic acid in water is prepared. Second, the base solution is located at twenty degrees centigrade (20° C.). Finally, three percent (3%) by weight of chlorobutanol is dissolved in the lactic acid and water base solution.

Abstract: Disclosed is a ringing sealant defined by the addition of ethyl centralite to a solution of cellulose nitrate dissolved in acetone. Suitably, the preferred embodiment of the ringing sealant for microscope slides features a degree of elasticity sufficient to prevent that mixture from cracking a cover glass as the mixture dries or when dried.

Abstract: An improved cartridge case completely produced net shape on a progressive cold former that includes a trim to lengthy station with an internal shearing tool.

Abstract: A progressive forming machine with die and tool units, one of said units sliding a limited distance along its axis and biased by a spring force towards the other unit, the units each having an end face with a smooth surface finish adapted to press against the smooth surface finish of the end face of the other unit, the end face area of one of the units being relatively small compared to its major cross-sectional area whereby a high contact pressure between the end faces is obtained for a given spring bias force such that extrusion/cooling oil coating a workpiece received in cavity portions is restrained from leakage from the cavity portions across said end faces during a hydrostatic trapped extrusion shaping the workpiece to a degree beyond limits of conventional cold-forming processes.

Abstract: A tool for a progressive forming machine comprising an assembly having a workpiece shaping cavity symmetrical about an axis and including an end wall transverse to the axis, a conical bore open to the end wall and centered on the axis, the sides of the conical bore being described by a relatively small angle relative to the axis, and an ejector pin for forcing workpieces form the cavity, the ejector pin having an end face and a conical body portion rearward of the end face, the conical body portion having an external surface matching a surface of the conical bore.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for detecting a turned blank at a workstation in a progressive forging machine comprising simultaneously monitoring both the force on a tool in the workstation and the crank angle of the machine, determining a reference crank angle when the tool is subjected to a force at the workstation about to deliver a blow and a blank in the workstation is properly angularly aligned, operating the machine to forge blanks in a normal manner when a force on the tool at the workstation occurs substantially at the reference crank angle, and interrupting said normal manner when the force on the tool at the workstation occurs before said reference crankshaft angle to enable the blank being formed at the workstation to be separated from remaining blanks being forged in the machine.
