20090008000Method for the Production and Use of Semi-Finished Products on the Basis of Nickel, Having a Recrystallization Cube Texture - The invention relates to a method for producing and using a nickel-based semi-finished product embodied in the form of a strip or flat wire. The aim of the invention is to develop a method for producing a nickel-based semi-finished product which exhibits improved performance characteristics for the use in the form of a base for physical-chemical coatings provided with a high-quality intense microstructural orientation. The semi-finished product should have an improved granular structure provided with a stable cube texture. For this purpose, the inventive method consists in producing an initial semi-finished product by means of a fusion or powder metallurgy process including mechanical alloys, wherein the semi-finished product comprises a technically pure Ni or the alloy thereof containing an Ag additive in a microalloy range which is equal to or greater than 10 atom ppm and is equal to or less than 1000 atom ppm, in shaping the initial semi-finished product in the form of a strip or flat wire by hot- and cold forming processes with a thickness reduction >50% associated with an intermediate measuring. During the intermediate measuring, the semi-finished product is softened by annealing at a temperature ranging from 500 to 850° C., wherein the high temperatures are used for high Ag contents, and is subsequently quenched. Afterwards, the semi-finished product is exposed to the 80% cold shaping. The inventive method also consists in carrying out a recrystallization annealing treatment in such a way that the entire cubic texture is obtainable. The inventive semi-finished product is used in the form of a base for physical-chemical coatings provided with a high-quality intense microstructural orientation and for producing a high-temperature superconductor in the form of a flat wire or strip.01-08-2009

20080282566POSITION-MEASURING DEVICE - A position-measuring device is used for measuring the position of an object relative to a tool, the tool having a tool center point. The position-measuring device includes at least two intersected scales displaceable relative to each other in at least one plane of movement, and an assigned optical scanning unit which generates position signals for at least one measuring direction parallel to the plane of movement. Each scale has a neutral pivot, about which a tilt of the respective scale causes no change of the detected position. The scanning optics ensure that the position of the neutral pivots of the two scales correspond. The positioning of the scales relative to the tool center point ensures that the neutral pivots of the two scales and the tool center point lie in a plane which is parallel to the plane of movement.11-20-2008
20080285058OPTICAL POSITION-MEASURING DEVICE - An optical position-measuring device is arranged for recording the relative position of a scanning unit and a scale movable to it in at least one measuring direction. The scale is configured as a combined unit which includes at least one reflector element as well as a measuring graduation. A light source and one or more detector elements are assigned to the scanning unit. The scanning unit includes splitting device(s) which split the beam of rays, emitted by the light source, into at least two partial beams of rays in the measuring direction, which after being split, propagate in the direction of the scale.11-20-2008

A scanning plate is arranged in the fiber-optical scanning head, wherein the scanning plate is matched to the fringe pattern period and scans the periodic fringe pattern. Fringe patterns, which are phase-shifted in relation to each other, are generated within a fringe pattern period in bundles of partial signal beams in the one or several bundles of illuminating beams via a wavelength-dependent local separation, and the bundles of partial signal beams are employed for conversion into position-dependent phase-shifted scanning signals.12-04-2008
