Abstract: For a simplified method for heating a pre-warmed muffle used for dental ceramics in a dental furnace, wherein a saving of time in heating before the pressing and also a parallel heating of the muffles should be made possible, the following steps are suggested: a) heating of the muffle to a maximal temperature (Tmax), which is above the pressing temperature (Tpress), in which pressing is carried out, b) possibly keeping the muffle at a maximal temperature (Tmax) during a first pause (t-1), c) cooling of the muffle to a minimal temperature (Tmin), which is at most as high as the pressing temperature (Tpress), and d) keeping the muffle at a minimal temperature (Tmin) during a second pause (t2). In addition, a corresponding control device for the dental furnace and a furnace equipped with this kind of control device are produced.

Abstract: An unmanned vehicle is guided by selecting locations along a predetermined route defining adjacent first, second and third linear portions. If an imaginary circle can be constructed that is mutually tangential to all three linear portions or to projections thereof, the vehicle is guided according to the circle intercept method until it reaches an imaginary point of contact (M) between the circle and the second linear portion or passes its traverse. If an imaginary circle cannot be constructed that is mutually tangential to all three linear portions or to projections thereof, an imaginary circle is constructed that is mutually tangential to the first and second linear portions, and the vehicle is guided along according to the leg intercept method until it reaches an imaginary point of contact (M) between the circle and the first linear portion or passes its traverse.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the preparation of a treatment machine for the treatment of a medical liquid comprising a coupling surface with actuators, with a cassette comprising a hard part with liquid-conducting passages which are covered by a flexible film being able to be coupled to the coupling surface of the treatment machine so that the actuators can control the liquid flow in the liquid-conducting passages by pressing the flexible film down into the cassette. In this connection, a switch is made after the setting up of the treatment machine and before the start of treatment into a stand-by mode in which the actuators are alternately moved to relieve the flexible film. It is possible for the first time by the stand-by mode before the start of treatment in accordance with the invention to completely uncouple the time-consuming setting up of the treatment machine from the treatment itself in a time aspect. The present invention furthermore comprises a corresponding treatment machine having a control for the carrying out of the method in accordance with the invention.
