Abstract: A process for producing a structure in a smooth sheet-metal strip includes multiple process steps. In a first step, a first section of a smooth sheet-metal strip is fed to a first tool and a second section of the sheet-metal strip is fed to a second tool in a direction of advance. Then the sheet-metal strip is stopped. A sheet-metal machining of the first section of the sheet-metal strip is carried out using the first tool. A sheet-metal machining of the second section of the sheet-metal strip is carried out using the second tool, with the first feeding step being carried out simultaneously. An apparatus is provided for producing a sheet-metal strip of such a complex structure, which produces the structure with a very high degree of accuracy even when the materials properties differ.

Abstract: Within the framework of the purification of exhaust gases of mobile internal combustion engines, filter materials are subjected to particularly high thermal and dynamic conditions. As a result, it is advantageous to use filter materials together in a stable and durable composite. To this end, a heat-resistant filter layer made of a material through which a fluid can at least partially flow and which has at least one filter section and at least one edge area, is provided. A layer thickness that differs from that of the at least one filter section is provided in the at least one edge area.

Abstract: A method for operating a delivery device for delivering a reducing agent from a reducing agent tank into an exhaust treatment device of an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, includes at least intermittently carrying out a ventilation process of the delivery device during operation of the internal combustion engine. A registration of a ventilation process first occurs. A timing unit having a preset time interval and/or a mass-flow summing unit having a preset total mass flow is then actuated. When the preset time interval and/or the preset total mass flow is reached, the ventilation process is then carried out. In particular, monitoring the delivery device by a pressure sensor can thus be omitted. A delivery device for delivering a reducing agent is also provided.
