FOUNDRY & STEEL INDUSTRY
61st Austrian casting exhibition
Modern casting processes for the challenge of lightweight construction
According to the motto “Modern casting processes for the challenge of lightweight construction”, the 61st Austrian casting exhibition took place from 27 to 28 April 2017.
This year, the venue for the event was the premises of the company Fill Gesellschaft mbH in Gurten.
Numerous specialist visitors from Austria, but also from abroad, were able to find out about the topic of foundry at various specialist presentations. 25 exhibitors, including JOEST, together with its Austrian representative HAGI GmbH, also presented their product range for the foundry industry.
These were very interesting days in Austria and we would like to thank Fill Gesellschaft mbH and the Austrian Foundry Institute for the organization.

In conventional exciters, the bearings are lubricated by oil mist. The gears inside the housing churn the oil into fine droplets, which are distributed within the gearbox. Only a portion of these droplets reaches the rolling bearings and provide the lubrication. Some housings have oil collection pockets on the inside. These are intended to guide the oil along the inner surfaces of the housing downwards into the bearings. However, the entry of oil into the bearings is random and the quantity is undetermined. To improve the entire lubrication, the JOEST Oil Management System has been developed.

Yesterday was the day: our traditional #JOESTeam Day Christmas 2024 took place, and it was an evening we will all remember. Amidst the magical, Christmas-lit backdrop of Dülmen’s market square, we came together to bring the year to a close. The ice rink, which was all ours that evening, provided the perfect stage for an exciting and entertaining curling tournament.
