PREVIEW / IMPRINT K Preview of the next issue Publication date: 12 March 2015 Selection of topics: Special: 30 years of CP+T International “An active bridge for the exchange of information in the foundry industry.” This is how Eberhard Möllmann (President of the German Foundrymen’s Association, the former publisher of CP+T) described the task of the international English-language periodical in the first issue, published in March 1985. A review of 30 years: about 4,000 copies of each issue are delivered to foundries all over the world, providing plenty of material for discussion: between foundries with each other, of suppliers and foundries, and between people from different cultures. Mission accomplished! S. Geisweid: A milestone in steel foundry modernization The old green sand molding system at the Promlit foundry in the Russian city of Cheboksary has been replaced by a modern HWS molding machine. In order to improve mold quality, as well as mold larger models and automatically change them, the modernized plant uses the Seiatsu air flow press-molding process instead of vibrating press molding. B. Gottsauner: RFID for tracking batches and monitoring steel quality A foundry has optimized the composition of its melt material by using radio frequency identification (RFID): the transport buckets for pig iron and scrap steel are equipped with transponders that are detected by a UHF RFID reader at the electric induction furnace. This results in increased process reliability, consistent dosing accuracy, and complete batch tracking.

After the introduction “Magic and myth of sabres” by Helmut Nickel, the author describes the development of the material and the history of European, Middle Eastern and East-Asian forge-welded composite steels used in the design of blades and fire arms. A special chapter is dedicated to the great variety of Oriental dasmascus steels (wootz steels). The author covers the topic of historical and modern fakes and how they can be recognized as well as conservation and restoration of Damascus steels. In one chapter he demonstrates that not only weapons but also decorative articles of daily use and jewellery can be made of Damascus steel. Extensive research both into the history and theory of Damascus steelmaking as well as practical work at the forge. Distributed by Verlag Stahleisen GmbH P. O.
