Abstract: The invention concerns a procedure for sequential moulding of an assembled object
and a machine for the performance of the procedure. The in at least two subsequent
mouldings produced object is moulded in a mould with a usually stationary front
part (1), a movable back part (2) and at least one turnable middle part (3). After the
moulding of the first part of the object (5), the middle part (3) is turned at least once,
preferably 180 degrees around an axis/axle (4) placed in a right angle to the moving
direction between the front part and the back part, before the moulding of the following
part of the object (10) takes place. In this way the first part of the object from
the moulding at the front part (1) can be transported via the turnable middle part (3)
to the back part (2), where the following moulding on the object can take place. As
well as the injection and the cooling can take place in the front part and in the back
at the same time, a lot of cycle time can be saved. In a special design the middle part
(3) can be equipped with an insulation (11) in the middle which secures that between
the front part (1) and the middle part (3) can be maintained a higher temperature
than between the middle part and the back part (2). Hereby it is possible to mould
together considerably different materials such as a thermo plastic material and an
elastomer, a silicone, or metal and plastic.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for canceling interference in an OFDM system
using multiple antennas, where based on error estimation of a symbol received
from a receive antenna, the error of a symbol received from another receive
antenna is estimated. Prior to transmission, symbols to be transmitted through a
plurality of transmit antennas are shifted by a predetermined number of bits without
overlapping. Thus, the effects of an error of a symbol received from a receive
antenna on error estimation of a symbol received from another receive antenna are
reduced.

Abstract: A powder metal mixture comprises a lubricant powder conventionally used to produce powder metal parts in combination with a modified lubricant. A lubricant conventionally used to compact and sinter a chosen powder metal mixture is modified by adding to it starch particles smaller than the average metal particle, and optionally, micronized cellulose fibers in so small an amount that the modified lubricant is present in an amount less than 2% by weight of the mixture. The Hall apparent density and the Hall flow rate of a powder metal mixture made with the modified lubricant of starch or (starch+fibers) remains within the ranges deemed desirable for production of compacted powder metal parts. Using the modified lubricant in lieu of the conventional lubricant increases green strength of a part made by compacting the mixture and improves dimensional conformance.
