SMART FOUNDRY at Hannover Messe

Like every year, thousands of interested specialist visitors went to the Hanover Fair at the end of April. Under the motto “Connect und Collaborate”, the world´s leading industrial fair presented highly topical trends and innovations on artificial intelligence. One of the 5,000 exhibitors from more than 75 countries was also Kurtz Eisenguss: in detail, the Eisenguss team presented a planetary carrier weighing only 436 kg from the firm of Moventas under the motto “Shaping the Future together”. Fin-ished in the GJS 700-2 material and with a height of 700 mm, this was an outstanding introduction to the topic of hand moulding.

A further highlight was a cylinder weighing 4,000 kg with the dimensions 2,000 x 1,820 x 1,820 mm (L x B x H). It had been manufactured for customer Aerzen in the GJL 200 material, its field of use is fans in steel factories. After five intensive days, we returned to Hasloch with specific inquiries, in order to convert them to orders for complex hand-moulding of up to 8,000 kg in machine and marine construction and also in wind power.
