Magnetech GmbH exhibits at EUROGUSS-fair
Like in the last years, our company was present at EUROGUSS 2012 in Nuremberg, one of the most recognised international fairs for diecasting. We could welcome many visitors - long-term clients as well as potential new customers - at our stand, where we informed about magnesium diecasting. For Magnetech GmbH, EUROGUSS proved to be a complete success, what is not only reflected in large attendence but also in the number of enquiries we are currently receiving. In the meantime, the visit of some of our employees who get an insight into new technology and innovations regarding magnesium diecasting has become a nice tradition.

Magnetech GmbH invests in additional diecasting technology
In December 2011, we invested in additional diecasting technology for our foundry. By purchasing a new diecasting machine with 400 to closing force (DAM 400) from Oskar Frech GmbH + Co. KG, Magnetech's production capacity can be increased by 30 %. For the first time during the development partnership between Frech and Magnetech, a new heating system based on a resistance heating is assembled to these machine types. The know-how will be analysed together with Frech in order to increase the efficiency of magnesium diecasting part production.

Magnetech GmbH donates christening bell to parish Neukirch/Lausitz
Together with its partner companies Kaeppler & Pausch GmbH, and OIB GmbH, Magnetech donates a new bell to the parish Neukirch/Lausitz, as the peal of the church has to be renewed. With this widely audible sign, we would like to express our engagement for the tradition in our village and in the region.
Many thanks to all of our clients, suppliers and business partners for the good co-operation in 2011. Because of the not insubstantial amount of the donation, we do not make any christmas gifts and we hope, that we have done something good - also in your sense.

Magnetech GmbH is celebrating its tenth anniversary
On 4th October 2011, Magnetech GmbH celebratet its tenth anniversary. The wheather was estival when the employees and the management board made a boat trip on the steam ship "Diesbar" along the river Elbe as well as a round tour through the palace garden Pillnitz.
During the last ten years, Magnetech developed into a full-range supplier for magnesium diecasting parts. In the meantime our company has got 45 employees - most of them work on six days / week in three shifts. About 450 tons of magnesium are being cast on our three diecasting machines per year. Considering the density of this material, this quantity approximates 2.000 tons of steel.

Beach volleyball tourney
In September 2011, the annual beach volleyball tourney took place on our playing field behind the foundry. The following teams participated: the pottery Lehmann from Neukirch, Käppler & Pausch GmbH/Neukirch, the youth club Bühlau, and, of course, our company, which won the exciting match, so that the challenge cup stays also in this year at Magnetech GmbH. We are looking forward to defend it in 2012!

New investments
In August 2011, Magnetech GmbH has invested in further diecasting technical equipment. A new deburring press has been purchased from the company Reis Robotics, in order to strengthen the post-processing of magnesium diecasting parts. Therewith, parts can be deburred with a press capacity of 30 tons. Because of the continuing good order situation, the machine was put on stream immediately.

Visit of the Saxon State
Minister Mr. Morlok
The Saxon State Minister for Economic Affairs, Labour and Transport, Mr. Sven Morlok, visited the company Magnetech on
29.07.2010.
During a tour of the site we were able to demonstrate the economic efficiency of our company.
The State Minister was particularly interested in the topic lightweight design. Using the example of the machines
manufactured in our company we were able to present the whole supply chain accompanying the production of the
magnesium die-cast components. Following the tour additional investment plans were discussed together with the
partners of the company in a “personal discussion.”
Because of the positive development of the company Magnetech which is integrated in the Käppler and Pausch group
of companies where approx. 240 people are currently working, the Minister assured the company of his complete support
for future investments. Securing and extending the production capacity and thus the jobs under good social conditions
in eastern Saxony is a top priority for both the economy and the Minister.
