DRUCKGUSS

Herausgeber: Dr. Michael Franke

DRUCKGUSS  is the first and so far only trade journal in the German-speaking world to deal with topics from the field of the die casting industry.


Since 2011 it has been published three times a year as a supplement in the trade journal GIESSEREI-PRAXIS. Editorial emphasis is placed on reports from operational practice, but also on practice-oriented research contributions. With this program, Die Casting is aimed primarily at managers in the die casting industry at home and abroad.
