Abstract: The invention relates to a pressing system, including a press having a first pressing tool and a second pressing tool. The first pressing tool and the second pressing tool being movable relative to one another to form a working space. A workpiece, a pressure generating device for generating a pressure curve acting on the workpiece in the working space, a temperature generating device for generating a temperature curve acting on the workpiece in the working space the workpiece running through an elongation curve (DVW) depending on the pressure curve acting in the working space and on the temperature curve acting in the working space. The first pressing tool and the second pressing tool running through a respective elongation curve (DVP1, DVP2) depending on the pressure curve acting in the working space and on the temperature curve acting in the working space, wherein the first pressing tool and/or the second pressing tool are designed such that their elongation curve (DVP1, DVP2) deviates by no more than 3.

Abstract: A cast iron material and methods for using same are disclosed, as well as a method for producing and/or lining a mould. The cast iron material has a change in length at temperatures of ?60° C. to 440° C., more particularly in the temperature range from 0° C. to 420° C., which change in length is as small as possible or as similar as possible to that of carbon fibre reinforced polymer or glass-fibre reinforced plastic. The cast iron material has at least the following proportions in percent by weight as elements or as compounds of carbon in the range from approximately 1.5% to 4.0%, silicon in the range from approximately 1.0% to 5.0%, manganese in the range from approximately 0.1% to 1.5%, nickel in the range from approximately 36.5% to 48.0%, chrome in the range from approximately 0.01 to 0.25%, phosphorus to approximately 0.08%, copper to approximately 0.5%, magnesium to approximately 0.150%, the remainder being iron and unavoidable impurities.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for simulating stereophonic sound (1), comprising the following: a core module (10) having a space simulation module (11), an echo module and an interface module (15), a control module (20), a digital audio delay matrix module (21), and a digital audio/network system (30). The invention is characterized in that said system provides an echo and/or directional acoustic irradiation on the basis of a system latency less than 2.5 ms by means of the core module (10), the control module (20), and the digital audio network system. A system for simulating stereophonic sound is thus provided, which system operates with a reduced number of loudspeakers and without dedicated components and/or proprietary hardware and provides a plurality of different functions, such as extension of the echo time and directional acoustic irradiation.
