    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an analyzer for measuring the vapor pressure of a hydrocarbon liquid. The analyzer includes a pressure measuring system connected to an air saturation system having a circulation chamber with opposing first and second ends. A first opening is disposed toward the first end and a second opening is disposed toward the second end. A plumbing system connects the first and second openings. A pump moves the hydrocarbon liquid through the plumbing system from the first opening to the second opening so as to saturate the hydrocarbon liquid with air. The air saturation system has a cooler for cooling the hydrocarbon liquid and the pressure measuring system has a heater for heating the hydrocarbon liquid. The pump may be a piston actuated pump or a motor-driven pump and the plumbing system may include an aeration chamber.

    Abstract: A method and a system for managing one or more industrial robots used by an enterprise over one or more of the phases of the asset lifecycle. Monitored data from the robot(s) is used to determine the occurrence of an event that affects the robot operation. The monitored data is transferred either regularly or upon the occurrence of a robot affecting event. The remote location estimates from the transferred data an optimized maintenance interval for the robot(s) and analyzes that data to provide a prediction of needed maintenance on the robot(s). The remote location can use the transferred monitored data to benchmark different features and functions of the robots for a particular robot or against a robot that performs the same function or can benchmark one of the robots against a robot in another enterprise.

    Abstract: Headbox transient response for sheet weight and moisture are modeled as a combination of two sets of time constants and dead time delays. One set represents a shorter delay with faster respons e dynamics, the fast mode weight and moisture responses, and the other models the longer delay with slower dynamics, the slow mode weight and moisture responses. A weight and/or moisture transient model is then formed for headbox changes by combining the fast mod e weight and moisture responses and the slow mode weight and moisture responses. Stock weight and moisture dynamic and delay time models are determined for operation of stock flow of the paper making machine and the stock flow is controlled in accordance with the stock weight and/or moisture models and the headbox weight transient and/or moisture transient model to compensate f or weight and moisture changes in a web of paper being manufacture which weight and moisture changes result from headbox changes.

    Abstract: A method of manufacturing transformer windings embedded in casting resin is disclosed which utilizes an integrated winding mandrel for producing a non-standard oval shaped epoxy encapsulated low voltage coil for dry type distribution transformers. The method includes a process of winding a low voltage coil of alternate layers of copper conductor (24) and insulating tape (26), over a disposable mold formed by wrapping steel sheet material over inner mold support plates (14), the formed mold acting as both a winding mandrel and as an inner mold (20) for epoxy encapsulation. Both the inner and outer molds are made of low cost sheet metal utilizing a "wrap and band" process. The complete winding and molding processes can all be conducted utilizing a conventional square mandrel shaft (12) on a standard coil winding machine (10).

    Abstract: The changer (106) has a hollow body portion with two ports which are in fluid communication with a cleaning fluid and a powder paint application device, respectively. Each change valve has an inlet and an outlet in communication with an interior cavity of the portion. Color valves corresponding to each purge valve has an outlet and inlet in communication with each inlet of purge valve and paint, respectively. Each change valve is operative in a mode to enable fluid communication between the inlet and outlet and operative in another mode to prohibit fluid communication between the inlet and outlet. The purge valves corresponding to each change valve has an outlet in communication with each inlet of change valve and has an inlet and a purge port. An independent claim is also included for a method of operating a powder paint applicator.

(a) Indexing to the assembly position: (b) Picking a part with the part gripper on the part delivery arm from a part supply station. (c) Indexing part delivery and workpiece preparation arms to the preparation position. (d) Operating the workpiece target surface scanning module and communicating workpiece target surface position data to the robot. (e) Moving the robot to set the tool operating axis and calculate tool offsets relative to the position and orientation of the scanned target surface.
