A machine tool has a tool and a workpiece clamped into a workpiece holder on a workpiece table and a tool. The workpiece table is rotatable about a rotation axis in a position-controlled manner by a plurality of complete revolutions, and the tool is movable at least parallel to the rotation axis in a position-controlled manner. While the workpiece table is rotated, the tool is placed at least temporarily against the workpiece on a side substantially facing away from the workpiece table, machines the workpiece, and the tool is at a distance being at least equal to a predefined minimum distance from the rotation axis. The first workpiece holder is displaced in a direction that has a component towards or away from the rotation axis on the workpiece table in a position-controlled manner during the machining of the first workpiece by the first tool.

A device for transporting containers comprises at least two transport devices for the containers, at least two servo motors, at least two position sensors, and at least one control unit. The at least one control unit is to control the at least two servo motors, by closed-loop control, based on a comparison of positions determined by respective position sensors of the at least two position sensors and respective target positions. The at least one control unit is further to bring the at least two servo motors to a standstill in the event of a fault of a position sensor, wherein: a) a servo motor is brought to a standstill in a closed-loop manner using the position if it is determinable by the position sensor, or b) the servo motor is brought to a standstill in an open-loop manner based on the target position if the position is not determinable.

A positioning method is disclosed. The positioning method includes collecting at least two types of sensor data reflecting a motion state of a terminal device in a step-counting period in real time; separately filtering the at least two types of sensor data to obtain filtered sensor data; step-counting a user holding the terminal device based on the filtered sensor data to obtain a distance and a direction of movement of the user in the step-counting period; and correcting current position information of the user based on the distance and the direction of the movement of the user in the step-counting period to implement positioning of the user. The technical solution provided in the present disclosure can be adopted to improve the accuracy of indoor positioning.

A controller capable of transmitting and receiving an input signal from a drive circuit corresponding to a moving device, a mounting head, or the like of an electronic component mounting machine or an output signal to the drive circuit for each predetermined period (A/2), in which the controller computes an output signal based on an input signal which is received before the predetermined period, stores the output signal for a time greater than or equal to the predetermined period, and subsequently transmits the output signal to the drive circuit. It becomes possible to set a time (a delay time) from when an input signal is output until an output signal reaches a drive circuit to an arbitrary length by adjusting the storage time.
