TRADE SHOW
Foundry Symposium and Technical Conference 2018
Specialists met in Salzburg
The Great Foundry Technical Conference took place from 26.-27. April 2018 in Salzburg. The Austrian, Swiss and German foundry associations had invited to this important trade event. This meeting provided foundries, foundry users and the supply industry with a forum for the exchange of information and experience.
Especially interesting were the technical lectures on general trends, but also subject-specific topics in the iron and non-ferrous sector as well as in production technology. Accompanying this there was a trade exhibition where JOEST, together with its Austrian representative HAGI GmbH, presented their own product range for the foundry industry.
More than 800 participants made the conference a big success.

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.
