• Material testing for magnesium, aluminum and zinc alloys. Te GTA center has a wide range of foundry specific
equipment, such as: • Four high pressure die casting machines, cold and hot chamber.
• Permanent mold, including tilt capability. • Sand casting laboratory. • Melting furnaces for iron, magnesium and aluminum. • Tensile, creep and fatique testing. Te GTA center is led by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Lothar H. Kallien
and Dr.-Ing. Alexander Baesgen and can be contacted at

The Foundry Institute of the TU Mining Academy Adolf Ledebur (1837-1906), an expert in iron and steel-
work, was the founder of research and studies in foundry technology at the Mining Academy. He took up the profes- sorship of a newly established chair in iron metallurgy and also concerned himself with foundry technology (primarily iron and steel casting). Later, in 1942, professor Uhlitzsch established the Freiberg Foundry Institute in the newly constructed building of the Ironworks Institute in 1929. Te Foundry Institute of the TU Mining Academy Freiberg, Freiberg, Germany, with its present director Professor Klaus Eigenfeld, now occupies an important place in research and studies in metalcasting technology in Germany. Traditionally, the areas of iron and steel casting materials,
together with molds and the molding process, have been the main focus of the Institute. Te two large, existing metalcasting testing rooms have all the equipment necessary for metalcast- ing operation and make practice-oriented training possible, together with the industry-oriented development of materials and products. Te comprehensively-equipped molding labora- tory makes provision for the repair, testing and research of all casting-related molding systems. Classical research focus points in mold-making include bentonite-based molding systems and inorganic chemical binders and molding processes. Since the reunification of Germany, classic research focus points in the area of mold materials include molding of light metals in sand and pressure castings, as well as the new field of fine mold- ing processes, which is an area of intense development at the Institute. Trough a number of industry contacts, the practical relevance of the Institute’s activities is ensured. Student training at the Institute is currently divided into
two fields. First, students can graduate with a master’s degree in engineering after ten semesters of study. Or, students may obtain a bachelor’s degree in foundry technology after seven semesters of study. Studying at the Insti- tute involves three main areas: foundry process design, casting
• 新合金材料的测试。 • 压铸机的运行优化。 • 用X射线和三维计算机断层扫描进行探伤分析。 • 镁，铝，锌合金材料测试。 GTA中心具有很宽的范围的铸造专用设备，如：
• 四台冷，热室压铸机。 • 可倾转的金属型。 • 砂型铸造实验室。 • 铁，镁和铝的熔化炉，。 • 强度，蠕变和疲劳测试。 GTA中心由Lothar H. Kallien教授、博士和 Alexander Baesgen博士领导，可以联系gta@htw-

TU矿业学院铸造研究所
Adolf Ledebur (1837-1906)，铸铁和铸钢方面的 专家，是矿业学院铸造技术研究所的创始人。他最初 获得冶金教授职位，也涉及铸造技术研究（主要是铸 铁和铸钢）。后来，在1942年， Uhlitzsch教授建立 了弗莱堡铸造研究所，在1929年在新建了铸铁研究 所。德国弗莱堡TU矿业学院铸造研究所，现任所长 Klaus Eigenfeld教授，现在德国铸造技术的研究领域 占有重要的一席之地。
传统上，铸铁和铸钢领域，连同模具和造型工艺， 已经是研究所主要研究领域。现有的两个大型铸造试 验室拥有所有必要的设备，完成铸造操作，并面向实 践培训，以及材料和产品产业化的发展。全面配备的 造型实验室提供的所有铸造造型系统的维修，测试和 研究。传统研究的着力点，在模具制造包括基于膨 润土的造型系统和无机化学粘合剂的造型工艺。自德 国统一以来，经典的模具材料领域的研究侧重点包括 砂铸和压铸成型的轻金属，以及精细造型工艺的新领
