Abstract: A memory programmable controller of the multiprocessor type having both word and bit processors is disclosed. The controller has a data memory in which process images of the process being controlled are stored and a user program memory in which a control program is stored. In order to increase the rate at which commands are executed by the controller, means are employed by which the bit processor fetches commands from the user program memory at the same time that it is executing a prior command. Accordingly, two sequential commands are respectively executed and fetched simultaneously, thereby increasing the speed of the controller. Separate bus systems dedicated to the bit processor which enable the bit processor to access the user program memory and the data memory are employed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for detecting and counteracting a deformation of the stock discharge gap (6) in a paper machine headbox, which is caused by thermal expansion due to the temperature of the stock and/orthe pressure of the stock. This is achieved by ultrasonic transducers (7;9,10; 20-22) located close to the slice opening (6) which obtain measurement results relating to the distance between the roof member (1) and the apron beam member (2) of the headbox. At least two such transducers, one (20) preferably located close to a side wall (23) of the discharge gap (6) and the other (21) preferably located midway between the side walls (23, 24), give information about a possible difference between the measurement results caused by the deformation. This difference serves as a guide for adjusting the temperature of the apron beam member (2) and/or the roof member (1), in such a way that the deformation is reduced in magnitude or entirely eliminated.

The enveloping curve of the path of the shaping edge (15) of the knurling tool has a region of intersection (13) with the wall of revolution (10) of axis (X2). The diameter of the knurling tool is greater than the diameter of the circumference (12). A helical thread is obtained by moving the wall of revolution (10) in relative manner along its axis (X2) relative to the knurling tool (11).
