The Bright
World of Metals
Technologies - Processes - Applications - Products
Foundry technology remains a cornerstone
of industrial activity, and the last staging of GIFA in 2007 once
again proved its high innovation potential and efficiency against a
background of increasing demands in terms of quality, flexibility, cost
management, environment and links with modern technologies.
In light of current economic uncertainties, export business is now playing an ever
more important role in the industry's development and survival.
As
the global No.1 event, GIFA 2011 will provide a complete overview of advances in
the foundry practice. Düsseldorf will again be the venue for the world's
leading manufacturers of foundry machinery and plant construction,
suppliers of foundry-related materials and auxiliaries, manufacturers of
measurement and testing devices for quality assurance, plus engineering
companies.
METEC
(8th International
Metallurgical Technology Trade Fair with Congress), THERMPROCESS (10th
International Trade Fair and Symposium for Thermo Process Technology), and NEWCAST (3rd International Castings Trade Fair
with Forum) will
again be staged parallel to GIFA 2011.
