Schwerpunkte 2019

• Nationale und globale Herausforderungen in der Gießereitechnik
• Konzepte mit Zukunft: Werkstoffe und Verfahren
• Prozesssimulation und –Monitoring

Der Leichtbaugedanke ist seit jeher immanenter Bestandteil der deutschen Ingenieurskunst. Um nachhaltig den Technologievorsprung zu festigen und die Produktion am Hochlohnstandort Deutschland zu erweitern, gilt es, innovative Lösungen für mehr Effizienz entlang der gesamten Wertschöpfungskette einzusetzen. Die fortschreitende Digitalisierung als auch differenzierende technologische Maßnahmen sind dabei wesentliche Erfolgsfaktoren im globalen Wettbewerb.

Die „Leichtbau in Guss“ beschäftigt sich 2019 schwerpunktmäßig zum einen mit den nationalen und globalen Herausforderungen in der Gießereitechnik – Vorträge, zum Player China und zum Thema Produkthaftung, beleuchten dies näher.

Zum anderen werden neueste Entwicklungen in Prozesssimulation und –überwachung als auch Innovationen bei Werkstoffen und Verfahren vorgestellt.

HIGHLIGHT 2019: Werksführung Daimler Gießerei, Mettingen

Konferenz: Gießtechnik und E-Mobilität

• Profitieren Sie von hochkarätigen Vorträgen und einem interdisziplinären Austausch auf höchstem fachlichem Niveau.
• Erfahren Sie, wie Sie sich für die Zukunft richtig aufstellen und den technologischen Anschluss nicht verpassen.
• Berichte anderer Marktteilnehmer und der Besuch der Gießerei des Fraunhofer IFAM zeigen Ihnen, was in der Praxis bereits heute möglich ist.

Erfahren Sie auf der 2. VDI-Fachkonferenz „Gießtechnik und E-Mobilität“, welche Auswirkungen die Elektromobilität auf Gießereiunternehmen hat, die Motoren und Komponenten für die Automobilindustrie fertigen. Die Konferenz stellt vor, wie sich gießtechnische Verfahren, Produktionswege und Wertschöpfungsketten durch die Elektrifizierung des Antriebsstrangs verändern und was dies für die Positionierung der Gießereien am Markt bedeutet. Für einen hohen Praxisbezug sorgen zahlreiche Erfahrungsberichte aus den Unternehmen und eine Exkursion zur Gießerei des auf diesem Gebiet führenden Forschungsinstituts Fraunhofer IFAM in Bremen.

According to experts, the GDP of the ASEAN countries is set to rise from $ 2.3 trillion to $ 10 trillion by 2030. The automotive industry will have a large share of this, with Thailand playing a prominent role as a regional manufacturing hub.Reason enough for us to offer the exhibitors of EUROGUSS an attractive platform under the name EUROGUSS ASIA PACIFIC as part of Metal AP. The best way to entry into this promising market.

The IFC 2020 Organizing Committee is privileged to invite you all to Chennai, the auto hub of India, for the 68th Indian Foundry Congress & IFEX during February, 2020, hosted by the Southern Region-IIF. 

The Indian Foundry Industry is poised at the threshold of change, and IIF has ambitious plans to bring about the transition. Our unique 3F, the 'Future Foundry Forum' is a clarion call to all foundrymen to come together and create a blueprint of change that is future compliant.. 

Let's get the Paradigm Shift in gear, to secure a prominent place in the Global landscape.

Welcome to the trade fair for Castings and Forgings with Processing!

Whether weighing just a few grams or several tonnes, castings and forgings ranging from blanks and machining through to the final component are the focal points of CastForge.

Product complexity and the demands on castings and forgings are increasing. It is important for customers to obtain a high-quality, ready-to-install product. CastForge will bring together supply and demand, and will present the value-added chain extending from cast blanks or forging blanks and machining through to the final component.

CastForge is exactly the right trade fair for you if you:

• regularly purchase parts made of grey cast iron, spheroid cast iron, cast steel or non-ferrous castings and work with drop forgings, open die forgings, rolled rings or warm extruded components,
• are looking for a specialised processor for lathe turning, milling, grinding, cleaning, coating or galvanising of your castings and forgings,
• require a service provider to assemble modules, purchase third-party components or handle all the logistics, and want support in selecting the right materials,
• need or have questions regarding FEM simulation, or want to exchange ideas and experiences with industry experts from scientific institutions, research institutes, associations and networks.

THERMPROCESS – the international trade fair for thermal process technology – is heading to China. As part of wire and Tube China from 23 to 26 September 2020 in Shanghai, Messe Düsseldorf Shanghai, together with its Chinese and international partners, will be organising a 500-square-metre pavilion dedicated to the full range of thermal processing technology.

2020 METAL EXPO - the foundry industry events on a spectacular, international scale

The World Foundry Organization and the Korea Foundry Society would like to cordially invite you to the 74th World Foundry Congress, that will take place in Busan, Korea, during Oct. 18th-22nd, 2020.

The ecosystem of the world foundry industry is rapidly changing, and noticeably the efforts for foundry innovation through smart factory and/or 3D printing technology have been recently activated as well. Development of new casting materials and processes, automation and robots for foundry, socio-ecological demands including energy consumption and environment protection, human right and safety during the foundry process, new business models based on open innovation platform, casting reliability and working performance may be just a few issues for our future foundry society. Considering the importance of the newly arising issues, it is time to gather our wisdom together for the future of the foundry society.

Under this circumstance, we already suggested the motto of the present congress as “Cast the future”. I sincerely appeal to the congress participants to hold the line together, stay with us under our motto. Throughout the forthcoming congress, we will surely do our best to greet each of you with warm hearted mind for your memorable and distinguished contribution in many aspects.

One more thing, we widely open the beginner’s session for novice, offering a great opportunity for a right start with above-mentioned issues with your lovely care. Please let the young man do a great job during the congress! In other words, let’s cast the future.

I look forward to seeing you in Busan in 2020.

Sincerely,

Sang-Mok, Lee
