    Abstract: The invention concerns a method of manufacturing paper or board, the paper or board obtained by the method, and a method of producing a tray from the board. In a fibrous stock for papermaking is incorporated an amount of polymer coated fibrous particles, which even have a foaming agent such as moisture contained therein. A web is formed from the fibrous stock on a forming fabric of a paper or board machine, followed by pressing and drying to a finished paper or board. As the paper or board is sufficiently heated the foaming agent within the particles evaporates, causing expansion and foaming of the polymer coating, which adds to malleability of the board as it is moulded into a shaped article such as a board tray. The invention even covers production of doubly coated fibrous particles for use in said methods, the inner coating layer being of a foamable polymer with a higher melt flow rate and the outer coating layer being of a non-foaming polymer of a lower melt flow rate.

    Abstract: A leakproof and liquid-tight packaging box of corrugated board, which box is erected mechanically using glueing as an aid. What is essential in the invention is that the corner surfaces of the structurally strong, torsionally rigid, leakproof and liquid-tight packaging box stackable one on top of another are folded and glued to the outer surface of the vertical surface of the short side. In addition, it comprises an inward-formed cone structure of the vertical surface of the long side of the box, and a rigid and load-resistant beam structure is formed on all sides of the packaging box.

    Abstract: Apparatus (200, 300, 400) for component positioning comprises at least one receptacle (212, 412) configured to receive a number of components (103) to be placed on a target substrate (108, 111), agitator (210, 410) configured to exert force impulses, such as abrupt force impulses, on the receptacle so as to cause the components to change their position inside the receptacle, inspection equipment (216, 316, 416) configured to verify the position of the components inside the receptacle, and pick and place equipment (206, 306, 406) configured to pick one or more components from the receptacle that fulfil a predefined position criterion and place the components on the target substrate. A related method for component positioning is presented.
