NOZZLES INCLUDING POLYCRYSTALLINE DIAMOND OR POLYCRYSTALLINE CUBIC BORON NITRIDE AND RELATED ASSEMBLIES AND METHODS
Embodiments are directed to nozzles for three-dimensional printing and related nozzle assemblies and methods. An example nozzle includes at least one top surface, at least one bottom surface, and at least one nozzle lateral surface extending from or near the top surface to or near the bottom surface. The nozzle also includes at least one conduit surface defining a conduit. At least a portion of the conduit surface comprise at least one of polycrystalline diamond (“PCD”), polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (“PcBN”), or another suitable superhard material. The nozzle may be attached to a base to form a nozzle assembly. The nozzle may be attached to the base by at least one of deforming the base relative to the nozzle, threadedly attaching (either directly or indirectly) the nozzle to the base, or press-fitting a hollow hollowed-sleeve into a passageway defined by the base.
Induction sealing device
An induction sealing device for heat sealing packaging material for producing sealed packages of pourable food products, the sealing device comprising: an inductor configured to induce a current in the packaging material, the inductor comprising conductor elements; a polymer insert holding the conductor elements; and a supporting body holding the polymer insert; wherein the polymer insert comprises a polymer matrix into which graphene particles are dispersed.
