The present course will be the eighth edition. Since the second edition in 2011 the course is organized as a one week course appreciated by both participants and lecturers being an excellent occasion to interact and discuss cast iron under a couple of intensive days. The content of the course is continuously developed including the last advances related to this field.

More than 250 people from world leading companies involved in production and using cast iron components and PhD students from universities involved in cast iron research participated in our courses.
