Conference

The AIKW is a registered association with the aim of informing its members about current developments in rolling technology and the associated plant technology.

Unfortunately, the announcement of the conference was delayed this year, as there were problems with the number of hotel overnight stays at the originally planned conference location Celje. Therefore, a new conference venue had to be found in the Celje area, which we found in Rogaška Slatina (35 km east of Celje).

The board of the AIKW works on a voluntary basis and does not receive any remuneration for its work and the organization of the conferences.As the meetings are organized by a small circle of members, it may take some time to respond to inquiries or process business transactions.

Objectives

The AIKW is a registered professional organization for roll pass designers and rolling mill engineers with a main emphasis in the field of hot rolled long products. The aim of the Association is to maintain and to deepen the members' skills acquired during theit basic training and subsequent practical work and to promote the exchange of experience between members.

In this respect, regular scientific conferences with presentations on specific topical subjects and plant visits make an important contribution. International speakers are invited to these conferences to give presentations on specific subjects of rolling mill technology and adjacent areas of production engineering, plant engineering and organization.

In addition to members, any interested individual working in the steel industry or in the field of mechanical engineering, plant engineering or in the supplying industry, as well as university and polytechnic students and students from technical and master craftspeople schools may participate in the conferences and visits offered.

The Association is a non-profit organisation and does not pursue own financial interests.
