Close cooperation assures optimum solutions. From new materials to large components: together with our customers, we set course for new horizons every single day.

New materials for the automotive industry The introduction of the EEG (German Renewable Energy Sources Act) surcharge has significantly increased the pressure for the industry to become more energy-efficient. Working closely with our customers in the automotive industry, we have developed two new steels that will play a significant role in saving energy. In turn, these have provided a platform on which we have been able to come up with new concepts for energy-efficient, cost-effective process...

Whatever the industry, whatever the sector - our experts will find the optimum solution that meets its every need and every requirement.

Advantages over conventional methods 3D-printed products and components have long been much more than just another new trend in manufacturing. Annual market growth of a constant approx. 15%, depending on the particular sector, demonstrates that 3D printing is, instead, a now widely used, groundbreaking production process.

Steering racks using the warm forging process GMH Gruppe produces high-quality steering racks for leading automotive-industry manufacturers, including VW, TESLA, BOSCH, JTEKT, NEXTEER, INA, MANDO, MOBIS, ZF/TRW. These steering racks are noted for maximum precision and maximum dimensional accuracy.

State of the art – for our employees and the environment A truly groundbreaking, future-oriented investment - the new dust-extraction system at Stahlwerk Bous GmbH boosts steel production and protects the environment simultaneously. Not only is the exhaust air released by the steelworks now five times cleaner than required by the applicable environmental law - steel output from the Bous AC EAF (electric arc furnace) has also increased significantly since the installation of the new filter...

Hybrid vehicles that save weight and CO2 Lightweighting using steel makes vehicles future-viable: they not only reduce weight and fuel consumption, they also save the environment a whole lot of harmful emissions. This is also shown by the results of the "Lightweight Forging Initiative", in which Georgsmarienhütte GmbH played its part.

Data-mining for tailor-made steel Georgsmarienhütte GmbH utilises a simulation software package developed in cooperation with external experts. The package aids us in greatly optimising the development and production of steel and steel products in our steelmaking plant.

Data-based Quality Assurance: Pilot project Ultra-high-quality piston and connecting rods are one of Stahl Judenburg's specialities. In a groundbreaking pilot project, the experts in Austria are, for the first time ever, using flows of digital data for Quality Assurance in the production of piston and connecting rods – another step on the way to the "smart factory".

Superior steel properties save up to 30% of downstream costs Bainitic steels combine the optimum properties of quenched and tempered (QT) steels with the short production routes of PHFP steels. This fact makes steels like Georgsmarienhütte GmbH's 16MnCrV7-7 (H2), 1.8195 the ideal steel for structural components in automotive engineering: assured versatility at rational cost.
