    Abstract: Computer-aided process for creating a braiding program is disclosed herein. The braiding program comprises machine-readable commands, which, during execution of the braiding program, induce a braiding machine to produce a braided structure, in particular an at least partially braided implant, the process comprising: a) generating a braided structure by braiding, in particular by braid-wrapping at least one braid mandrel using a braiding material according to a specified configuration of commands; b) capturing at least one parameter of the braided structure; c) reconciling the captured parameter of the braided structure using at least one pertinent nominal parameter; provided the captured parameter does not correspond to the pertinent nominal parameter: c1-a) unbraiding at least one section of the braided structure; and c1-b) changing at least part of the configuration of commands for generating a braided structure as well as repeating the steps a) to c) based on the changed configuration of commands; provided the captured parameter corresponds to the pertinent nominal parameter: c2) creating a braiding program according to the configuration of commands, in which the captured parameter corresponds to the pertinent nominal parameter.

    Abstract: A method for shaping a shape memory workpiece includes:



    providing a shape memory workpiece having a first diameter and a predetermined shaping temperature;
    arranging the shape memory workpiece on a shaping tool;
    heating the shape memory workpiece to the shaping temperature;
    first expansion of the shape memory workpiece to a second diameter that is larger than the first diameter;
    first changing of the temperature of the shape memory workpiece to an intermediate temperature below or above the shaping temperature;
    bringing the shape memory workpiece to the shaping temperature again;
    second expansion of the shape memory workpiece to a third diameter that is larger than the second diameter;
    ejecting the shape memory workpiece from the shaping tool; and
    final cooling of the shape memory workpiece to a cooling temperature below the intermediate temperature.




    A shaping tool is also provided.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a switch for sorting, deflecting, and supplying ferromagnetic elements. Here, the switch comprises at least two electromagnets, which are embodied curved or circular. The magnets may be installed fixed in the switch, on the one hand, or supported on an axis, on the other hand. The ferromagnetic elements are moved by a conveying element through the switches. Advantageously the switch can also be used to control bobbins in a braiding machine. Here, the bobbin can be transferred to another impeller. This way new options are generated with regard to flexibility of braids. Further, this invention offers a considerable reduction of braiding time in case of complex braids.
