60 years of success
Technology for people – that’s the corporate philosophy of Schlüsselbauer Technology, a company that forges partnerships all over the world. Together with its customers, it implements modern systems for strategic drinking water supply as well as for wastewater and rainwater collection and drainage. At the heart of this are cost-effective processes for producing high-quality precast concrete parts for pipeline construction. Back in 1964, when Johann Schlüsselbauer Senior founded the company in the Austrian municipality of Pennewang, he couldn’t have imagined the spectacular Schlüsselbauer story that would unfold over the years. In its early days, the company focused on general metalworking and repairing agricultural machinery. But over the years that followed, Schlüsselbauer found its footing as a medium-sized metal processing company before evolving into the high-tech engineering firm that it is today. Now, Schlüsselbauer is one of the pioneers in its industry, on track for a turnover of 80 million euros this year and celebrating its 60th anniversary. CPI 6-2024

Functionality and Precision – Criteria for Moulds in the Production of Mould-Hardened Components
“Easy to fill and easy to demould” – for the past few decades, user expectations for moulds used to process wetcast concrete, including self-compacting concrete, have been fully encompassed by these two requirements in the majority of cases. Recent developments such as increasing aesthetic standards, greater consideration of workers’ needs, and – last but not least – the importance of meeting functional quality requirements are driving forward advancements in the concrete casting segment. The bottom line is that these advancements also need to boost the cost-effectiveness of modern mould concepts compared to traditional technology. The quality levels expected from moulds used to produce components for building construction and special civil engineering applications (particularly tunnel liners) have been rising steadily. Meanwhile, the production of components for pipeline construction in general has seen significant developments in recent years. CPI 2-2024

Betonwerk Kühne gets set for the future with a new universal manhole riser production system
At its site in the Bavarian town of Geretsried, concrete manufacturer Betonwerk Kühne GmbH & Co. KG mainly produces precast concrete parts for civil engineering. Following the overhaul of the concrete mixing plant, the latest investment project involved replacing the existing production equipment for manhole risers and manhole cones, a 1989 Magic model from Schlüsselbauer. In spite of its robust design, the unit was beginning to show its age, and the outlay associated with ongoing servicing work could no longer be justified. However, since Kühne were still extremely satisfied with this Schlüsselbauer equipment, they once again opted for this tried-and-tested production concept and a modern Magic 1501 is now taking the place of the old machine.
