Abstract: The present invention relates to a process and to an apparatus for producing a magnesium sheet from a magnesium strip in a rolling device, said process having lower material heat losses compared to known processes and requiring a lower expenditure on apparatus. In the process, the magnesium strip, after preheating, is guided through at least one roll nip formed by at least one pair of counter-rotating working rollers, which comprise a main roller body. The process is characterized in that at least one of the two counter-rotating working rollers comprises at least one heat-insulating sheath surrounding the main roller body.

Abstract: A driving apparatus (1) for an optical scanning device (5) has a threaded spindle (16) onto which a spindle nut (23) is threaded. The driving apparatus (1) further includes a coupler (24) for coupling the spindle nut (23) to the scanning device (5). The coupler (24) effects a Cardan coupling in the manner of a Cardan joint. In a technically simple way particularly good synchronisation can be guaranteed during scanning.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cassette, in particular an X-ray cassette, for receiving a storage fluorescent screen. The cassette has on one of its narrow sides an opening through which the storage fluorescent screen is to be inserted into or removed from the cassette. The opening is closable by a flap which is displaceable between a closed position in which it closes the opening and a release position in which it releases the opening for insertion or removal of the storage fluorescent screen. For this purpose the flap is mounted swivellably to the transition between the narrow side of the cassette provided with the opening and the base of the cassette or the cassette lid.

Abstract: A device and method for reading out information stored in a storage layer using a receiving device for receiving emission radiation that has been emitted from the storage layer. In this connection the storage layer is supported on a support surface that is defined by an x-y plane and a relative movement is generated between the receiving device and the storage layer in the x direction. The receiving device or the storage layer is guided during the generation of the relative movement by a guide system, on a guide surface that is independent of the storage layer. When guiding the receiving device, the level of the guide surface in a z direction coincides with the level of the support surface in the z direction.

Abstract: A device and a method for reading out information stored in a storage layer (15), and an X-ray cassette are proposed which make use for the purpose of erasing information stored in the storage layer (15) of an erasing means (11, 12, 14) which generates an erasure radiation (17). This erasure radiation (17) can have both a first and a second intensity, the first intensity being larger than the second intensity.

Abstract: A device and method for reading out information stored in a storage layer using a receiving device. The storage layer is supported on a support surface that is defined by an x-y plane and a relative movement is generated between the receiving device and the storage layer in the x direction. The receiving device or the storage layer is guided during the generation of the relative movement by a guide system on a guide surface. Using first and second partial guides, an interspacing is adjusted in a z direction that lies perpendicular to the x-y plane, on either side—viewed in the z direction—of the support surface. The guide surface is independent of the storage layer and the first and second partial guides are connected to one another and are pretensioned against one another, and act in a pincer-like manner on the support surface.

Abstract: A method for preadjusting and controlling strip planarity in flexible single-pass and reversing rolling of a strip-shaped material web using at least one work roll pair forming a roll gap and back-up rolls for the work rolls, and devices for roll adjustment, roll bending, roll displacement and roll balancing. The method includes, when rolling a thickness ramp for adjusting a desired strip profile shape over the strip width, determining corresponding adjustment parameters by accessing on-line a multidimensional data matrix produced off-line through a FEM model for all adjustment ranges of rolling force, roll displacement and bending control at all occurring strip widths.

Abstract: A device for reading out information stored in a storage layer (10), which facilitates a good reproduction quality of this information stored in the storage layer (10). The device (1) includes a radiation source (2) for emitting stimulation radiation (20). Using this stimulation radiation (20), the storage layer (10) is stimulated to emit an emission radiation that corresponds to the information stored in the storage layer (10). The device (1) further includes a receiving device (3) to receive this emission radiation emitted by the storage layer (10). A distance device (30, 56) for setting a pre-specified distance (28, 59) is located between the receiving device (3) and the storage layer (10). A drive device imparts relative movement in a transport direction (A) between the radiation source (2) and the receiving device (3), on one hand, and the storage layer (10) on the other.
