Olomouc foundry significantly reduces time for prototype production thanks to 3D printing

The Olomouc foundry specialises on cast iron castings up to 6.5 kg produced in larger batches, designed primarily for car, truck and bus manufacturers, construction equipment and air-conditioning units.

Traditional procedures do not permit any acceleration, so we had to find a brand new solution.

UNEX Employees to Head to Southern Slovakia for the Holidays

For several years already, UNEX employees have had the opportunity to visit the local thermal park for recreational or therapeutic stays over holidays as well as throughout the year. The water has a positive effect on joint disorders, diseases of the spine and muscles, and has an overall positive effect on the regeneration of the entire body. The nearby 100-hectare oak forest park is an inviting place for a walk, run, or other activities, and is a unique vestige of the expansive forest that unfolded across the entire Danube lowlands centuries ago.
