The invention concerns a slice-cutting machine (1), in particular a machine for cutting food, with a housing (2) and, mounted in the housing, an electrically driven circular cutter blade (5). In order to improve the ease of servicing of the machine, the invention proposes that the cutter blade (5) is driven directly, i.e. with no reduction gearing, by a motor (11) mounted on the shaft (12) carryin...

Insulating metal oxide or nitride films are deposited by RF magnetron sputtering. During sputtering, the atmospheric gas comprises an oxygen or nitride compound gas and an inert gas. The proportion of the inert gas is decreased to 25 atom% or lower. By this sputtering condition, adverse effects caused by the inert gas is suppressed so that the quality of the insulating film is substantially improv...

Fiberfilling material is converted into fiberballs by an air-assisted rolling process in a turbulent air mill. Such a continuous process shows significant advantages over prior suggestions, with regard to productivity and flexibility.

A mixing valve includes a volume control valve (48), a pressure proportioning valve (82), and a thermostatic valve assembly (114, 130) within a single modular housing. The housing is rotatably mounted in a valve body and houses the proportioning valve and the thermostatic control valve. Rotation of the housing controls the total volumetric flow from the supply inlets (14, 16) of the valve plate (4...
