Kason Vibroscreen® circular vibratory screeners (also called separators and sieves) separate bulk solid materials from solids and slurries using multi-plane, inertial vibration that causes particles to pass through apertures in the screen or to travel across the screen surface in controlled pathways.

Typical applications include sifting, scalping, classifying, de-dusting and de-lumping of dry bulk solids, or dewatering of solids-laden slurries.

KLA Tencor P-15 Profilometer Max Wafer Size: 8” General Description: The KLA-Tencor P-15 Profiler is a highly sensitive surface profiler that measures step height, roughness, and waviness on sample surfaces. Roughness can be measured with up to a 0.5 Å resolution over short distances. Waviness can be measured over the entire surface of a sample. The P-15 system uses stylus-based scanning to achieve high resolution and can correlate local submicron features with global surface measurements. It has a scan area of 200 X 200 mm.

KLA-Tencor’s P-15 Longscan Contact Stylus Profiler is capable of measuring the roughness and waviness of a sample’s surface. The P-15 can also measure positive and negative step height features with a high degree of accuracy and precision. Both 2D and 3D scan profiles can be obtained. The P-15 is equipped with a MicroHead IIxr scanner that has a 1mm vertical range and is capable of scanning at forces between 0.5–50mg. The maximum horizontal scan length is 200mm.

The inverted pendulum is a classic problem in dynamics and control theory and is widely used as a benchmark for testing control algorithms (PID controllers, state space representation, neural networks, fuzzy control, genetic algorithms, etc.). Variations on this problem include multiple links, allowing the motion of the cart to be commanded while maintaining the pendulum, and balancing the cart-pendulum system on a see-saw. The inverted pendulum is related to rocket or missile guidance, where the center of gravity is located behind the center of drag causing aerodynamic instability.
