Trade Journals for the Concrete Industry

Since the mid-1990s, formwork solutions with integrated magnets have become established throughout the industry and since then numerous formwork systems have been developed for a wide variety of tasks. Many of these are now standard equipment in precast plants around the world. Ratec continues to be one of the market leaders when it comes to particularly complex formwork requirements with demanding framework conditions, such as in automated production. One of these complex requirements for a formwork solution can be that the formwork must shrink for the demoulding process in order to be released from the con- crete safely and without damage.
