Gerbera daisies(Gerbera jamesonii) are useful as cut flowers, pot crops, and bedding plants planted outdoors in full sun. They can be planted in dish gardens, mixed containers, patio pots, or traditional containers for use as holiday and seasonal gifts.

Subject field(s)
  • Packaging in Paperboard
CONT

Rigid-paperboard boxes.... Manufacturing process. The process starts when sheets of paperboard are sent through a machine known as a scorer. The scorer has circular knives that either cut through or partially cut through the paperboard and form the box blanks from the full sheet.... After the individual box blanks are broken from the full sheet they are stacked and prepared for corner cutting.... For small quantities the box blanks can be sent through a single stayer where an operator must first bend all four sides of the blank to prebreak the scores.

  • Emballages en carton
CONT

(...) cartonnages (...) L'outil de découpe est la "forme de découpe" qui comprend à la fois des filets tranchants qui coupent ou entaillent la feuille de carton et des filets raineurs qui lui impriment un refoulage destiné à guider le pliage ultérieur du cartonnage. Selon que le marquage de ces plis est obtenu par entaille du carton dans une partie de son épaisseur ou par refoulage, on parle de "tracé coupant" ou de "tracé rainé". Le conditionnement automatique exige en général un précassage des plis pour obtenir un fonctionnement correct sur machine.

DEF

A machine for removing solids from tailings, and the effluent can be reused in the washery or plant.

OBS

The tailings are pumped into the filter under pressure, filtration takes place and solids are deposited in the chambers. Gradually the resistance increases until a pressure of 100 pounds per square inch is necessary to force more tailings into the press. At this stage, the chambers are almost full of solids. The feed is cut off and the press opened to allow the cakes to fall onto the conveyor beneath the chambers.

Constant depth linear cutting(CDLC) provides a long-term solution to excessive dust generation from shearers and continuous mining machines through a new design of the rotary drum cutting system.... The CDLC concept is designed to cut a full face by using an eccentrically mounted triangular shaped drum. In addition to breaking to a free face with no secondary fragmentation, the CDLC will have a bit velocity well below the minimums needed for phase shifts in the bit metals or for methane ignition.

The mode of preparing or seasoning larch timber is not yet, perhaps, perfectly understood, more especially as the tree is usually cut in the barking season, when it is full of sap, which renders the large wood apt to warp and crack. To avoid this, some take off the bark the season before the tree is cut...

Subject field(s)
  • Woodworking
  • Plywood
CONT

Each layer of plywood is called a veneer; these are produced in several ways including rotary cutting, half-round cutting with the stay log, slicing, and sawing. Rotary cutting is by far the most important... Logs which are to be made into rotary-cut veneer... are removed from storage and cut into bolts... The bolts are softened... and the bark is removed. Each bolt is centered in a large lathe, and the cutting mechanism-a pressure bar and knife that run the full length of the bolt-is put in place. As the bolt is turned, the knife peels off a thin layer of veneer while the pressure bar compresses the wood ahead of the knife to reduce splitting and cutting checks.

CONT

Peeling provides the greatest volume and the most rapid production, because logs are merely rotated against a flat knife and the veneer is peeled off in a long continuous sheet.
