摘要:
Interfaces are provided which integrate mistake-proofing concepts in a way easily understandable by the operator and easily configured by a manufacturing engineer. As mistake-proofing concepts are developed tables are populated and associated with specific assembly processes. Sensors are employed to monitor parts selection and tool usage. Sensors used for tool use and parts selection, error messages and actions to be performed or monitored are all defined and related in the tables and in turn to specific assembly orders. The tables are also populated with logic pointers, which are referenced by a Process Logic Control (PLC) unit that has been programmed to recall and carry out infinitely variable monitoring or control of the assembly process. For example when a particular order has been identified to the PLC by way of a scanned barcode or other means, a bill of material and assembly sequence is provided to the operator by appropriate means such as a CRT monitor. Parts bins and assembly points may be indicated by visual or other means to indicate parts and tools to be used and assembly points. Sensors determine when the proper part has been selected for the particular assembly step and/or whether the appropriate tool is used. The PLC then provides feedback to the operator to indicate whether all necessary steps have been accomplished in the proper order, with the proper parts using the proper tools. The PLC will provide the operator with understandable error messages indicating when a step has been improperly completed. The PLC can also control stops on the line to prevent the assembly from moving forward until all steps have been completed according to the specific order program. An override means may also be provided to bypass the PLC controls in which case an error log is compiled and an automated message is sent to. supervisory personnel indicating that the system was overridden by the operator and follow up action is required.

摘要:
A device (1) for controlling user access to at least one container (4) for dispensing printing material housed by a printing apparatus (5), the device (1) comprising an openable and closable barrier (2) corresponding to the container (4) and a lock for locking the barrier (2) in a closed position. The lock is overlapped by at least a portion of the barrier (2) both when the barrier (2) is in the closed position and when the barrier (2) is in an open position.

A Horizontally-Linked Reinsurance Network (HLRN) formed of a plurality of small insurance companies (as defined by applicable law, e.g. U.S.C. §831(b)) that is established and managed by a network administrator presents a new approach to harnessing the benefits of small insurance companies while mitigating the drawbacks of small insurance companies. This system uses a rules-based approach and algorithm to select, allocate, optimize and manage the individual risk portfolio of independent small insurance companies so as to preserve their status as a small insurance company while diversifying risk. Further, network administrator will perform the management functions if the HLRN. This allows investors or persons who would not otherwise own an insurance company to invest in a new asset class which by its nature demonstrates a non-correlation to traditional investment markets and carries both unique return and tax properties.
