Hatching troughs are usually made of sheets of aluminium or stainless steel; their dimensions vary, but they are segmented by partitions across the middle, each segment having a drain and an inlet pipe. The segments make it possible to separate eggs in different stages of development. The eggs are kept in 7. 5 cm deep baskets, made of 0. 6 cm meshed hardware cloth and suspended by wire from the side of the trough, so that the water line is below the top of the basket.... Six to ten days are required for catfish eggs to hatch... 2, record 1, English, - hatching%20trough

Les velours par chaîne comprennent toujours deux chaînes différentes (la chaîne de fond, qui réalise le liage du tissu, et la chaîne de poil, qui forme l'effet de velours) et une seule trame. Lors du tissage, on lance périodiquement, dans une foule formée par la levée des fils de poil, une baguette métallique dite «fer» [...]. Lorsque la foule se referme, les fils de poil forment ainsi des boucles sur le fer. Lorsque plusieurs fers ont été ainsi insérés dans le tissu, on retire le premier fer lancé, et le tissage se poursuit ainsi [...]. Si les fers utilisés sont de simples baguettes arrondies, on obtiendra, après leur retrait, des boucles à la surface du velours, appelé pour cette raison «velours bouclé».

The principle of web formation on a cylinder former is virtually identical to that of a gravity decker.... A horizontal cylinder with a wire or plastic cloth surface rotates in a vat of dilute paper stock. Water associated with the stock drains through the mold and a layer of fibers is deposited on the cloth.... Because the mold rotates opposite to the direction of stock flow, a portion of deposited stock is continuously washed off the mold, resulting in flocced fiber bundles that contribute to "blotchy" formation. The sheet also has extreme directionality(fiber orientation) caused by the method of fiber deposition.(N. B. Directionality is usually measured by the ratio of tensile values obtained on machine-direction and cross-direction samples. Values of 5. 0 are typical for vat cylinder board, as compared to values below 2. 0 for fourdrinier papers.) 1, record 15, English, - directionality

On estime qu'environ 80 % des formes rondes existantes sont du type à contre-courant, [...] Comme la forme tourne en sens inverse de l'écoulement de la pâte, une partie de la suspension déjà déposée est détachée de la forme par chasse d'eau; on retrouve dans la suspension de petits amas de fibres floculées qui contribuent à la formation d'un épair nuageux. Cette méthode de dépôt des fibres donne des feuilles extrêmement orientées. (Nota : On mesure, d'ordinaire, l'orientation des papiers par le rapport des longueurs de rupture dans le sens marche et le sens travers. Pour les machines à forme ronde, on obtient des valeurs supérieures à 5,0, alors qu'elles sont inférieures à 2,0 sur les machines à table plate.) 1, record 15, French, - orientation

Filtre à claies. Les claies sont constituées par des éléments de forme carrée, rectangulaire, ou circulaire. Elles baignent dans la solution à filtrer et sont placées dans un cylindre vertical ou horizontal en fonte, en chaudronné, ou encore en matière plastique. ... On commence par "alluvionner" le tissu filtrant avec une couche d'adjuvant approprié qui devient ainsi le véritable milieu filtrant (precoat). Pendant la filtration, l'assemblage des éléments filtrants est fixe, mais pour assurer, en temps opportun, le décolmatage, l'arbre creux est entraîné par un moteur électrique: pendant la rotation, les sédiments accumulés sont projetés, par la force centrifuge, sur la paroi interne de l'enceinte cylindrique. 2, record 21, French, - %C3%A9l%C3%A9ment%20filtrant
