An instrument developed by John Aitken for determining the dust content of the atmosphere. In operation, a sample of air is mixed, in an expandable chamber, with a larger volume of dust-free air containing water vapor. Upon a sudden expansion, the chamber cools adiabatically below its dewpoint, and droplets form with the dust particles as nuclei(Aitken nuclei). A portion of these droplets settle on a ruled plate in the instrument and are counted with the aid of a microscope. 1, record 3, English, - Aitken%20dust%2Dcounter

Un autre système de presse à balles rondes a été présenté par Welger et repris par quelques constructeurs : ce sont les presses à chambre de compression à volume constant, cinq jeux de courroies ou des rouleaux animés forment les limites de la chambre de compression; le fourrage est introduit par un pick up comme dans les autres machines, la chambre se remplit et au fur et à mesure de l'introduction du fourrage à la périphérie vers le centre jusqu'à atteindre la densité désirée (...)
