An object inspection apparatus according to an embodiment disclosed herein includes: a first flipper apparatus configured to rotate a first object; a second flipper apparatus configured to rotate a second object; and a single camera device configured to move from a position corresponding to one of the first flipper apparatus and the second flipper apparatus to a position corresponding to the other, the camera device being configured to inspect object surfaces of the first object and the second object. Each of the first flipper apparatus and the second flipper apparatus includes at least one flipper unit.

A transmitter-receiver arrangement for measuring concentration of gas and/or for measuring pressure in a container headspace, wherein the transmitter-receiver arrangement defines a measuring zone accommodating the headspace, and the transmitter-receiver arrangement includes a transmitter to emit electromagnetic radiation covering a wavelength range including an absorption line of gas, a receiver of electromagnetic radiation in the wavelength range, the receiver and transmitter positioned respective to each other defining a path for the electromagnetic radiation from the transmitter to the receiver, a fixating element for fixating the transmitter-receiver arrangement to the apparatus or filling machine, an electrically controllable actuator arrangement causing at least one common shift of the transmitter and receiver, a shift of the transmitter relative to the receiver, a change in spatial orientation of the transmitter and receiver relative to the fixating element, and a change in spatial orientation of the transmitter relative to a spatial orientation of the receiver.

A full-automatic rock specimen image acquisition device and method, the device includes a central controller and a lighting system, a rock mass attitude control system, a dust system and an image acquisition system connected to the central controller respectively; the lighting system includes a lighting chamber and light sources with adjustable light intensities, and the light sources with adjustable light intensities are uniformly arranged in the lighting chamber; the rock mass attitude control system includes a rotating stage disposed in the lighting chamber for carrying the rock, a rock holder disposed on the stage, and a rotating gripper disposed above the stage for turning over the rock; and the dust system is connected to the lighting chamber, and can diffuse the dust into the lighting chamber through an air compressor and control the dust concentration in the lighting chamber through an electrostatic precipitator.

Apparatuses and methods are described herein for processing polynucleotides in a sealed path environment. The apparatuses include optical sensors to monitor operations and to track material usage for good manufacturing practice.

Methods and apparatuses for making and using therapeutics, including in particular mRNA therapeutics, that separate double-stranded RNA from single-stranded RNA as part of a continuous flow. These methods and apparatuses may include formulation of an RNA therapeutic using a permeable insert integrated into a microfluidic path device. In particular, these methods and apparatuses may include formulation of an RNA therapeutic by removing dsRNA from a solution of RNA by within a microfluidic path device including a cellulose material.

A gemstone cleaning and analysis system and a method for cleaning and analyzing one or more gemstones using the system. The system includes a platform and an automated positioning system connected to the platform. The automated positioning system selects a gemstone from a plurality of gemstones, deposits the gemstone onto a cleaning stand connected to the platform, cleans at least one side of the gemstone by rubbing at least one side of the gemstone with at least one cleaning tool, and moves the gemstone to a gemstone imaging device connected to the platform. The gemstone imaging device has a plate, and the automated positioning system deposits the gemstone onto the plate. The gemstone imaging device identifies the gemstone. The automated positioning system moves the gemstone to a holding plate that is connected to the platform and deposits the gemstone at a particular location of the holding plate.

A microorganism detection system is provided for being disposed on a device to be detected which is closed, including a flow channel and a detection module. A fluid to be detected in the device to be detected flows in the flow channel. The detection module is disposed within the flow channel, including two slides, a microscopic module and at least one telescopic mechanism, each of the at least one telescopic mechanism is connected to one of the two slides and the flow channel. When the two slides approach each other, the fluid to be detected in a gap between the two slides is observable through the microscopic module.
