  • Patent number: 11788982
    Abstract: A device for measuring a wear condition on the plain bearing surface of a sensor plate comprises a measuring apparatus, which has wear sensors of a sensor plate integrated into the plain bearing surface. To capture the material removal at the plain bearing surface due to wear an evaluation apparatus is in signal connection with the wear sensors. The evaluation apparatus is designed, with respect to programming, in such a way that a change, in particular an increase, in the ohmic resistance value of the electrical conductor of a certain wear sensor can be captured in dependence on its own material removal, in order to thereby ensure that the amount of the material removal at the plain bearing surface and/or the remaining thickness of the plain bearing surface at the location of said certain wear sensor can be inferred from the detected change in the resistance value.

  • Patent number: 11479033
    Abstract: A device for printing on hollow bodies comprises a mandrel wheel and a segment wheel. The mandrel wheel has its own motor separate from a motor of the segment wheel. In association with the segment wheel, along a circumferential line thereof, a plurality of plate cylinders are positioned or at least are positionable radially against this segment wheel. An inking unit is associated with each plate cylinder. Each plate cylinder, and a roller arranged in the associated inking unit, are each driven in rotation independently by a motor. The motor of the mandrel wheel and the motor of the segment wheel and the motor of the relevant plate cylinder and the motor of the roller arranged in the associated inking unit are connected to one another for data exchange by a common data bus. The relevant motors each have their own drive controller and their own power part connected to the data bus. Control data for the relevant motors, transported via the data bus, form a virtual guide axis.
