After successfully finishing his apprenticeship in 2013, Markus Steiner is currently graduating at the technical school in Linz. In his diploma theses he systematically evaluated the new AGRU induction welding system. On May 22nd 2014 Mr. Steiner presented the project and its results at the technical school in Linz.

Because of the positive customer response further technical optimisations were carried out and the product range of the large dimension e-couplers was expanded. Due to the new innovative manufacturing method from AGRU, machined e-couplers in dimensions 560 mm up to 1400 mm are now available.

For the simple creation of branches on PE pipes AGRU spigot saddle was developed. The spigot saddle is made of premium PE 100-RC and guarantees a simple installation and absolute reliability. With a spigot saddle, creating a branch on existing pipe has become much simpler and cost-effective.

In principle PE pipes are perfectly suited for conveying fluids-solid-mixtures (slurries). In many cases PE pipes are superior compared to other materials, e.g. concrete pipes or steel pipes. There are already numerous positive experiences in different applications.

The section KAT 1 of the Koralm Tunnel, which is the new railway connection between Graz and Klagenfurt, was completed in November 2013. For this section, more than 130 000 m² AGRUFLEX tunnel liners were used successfully.

Nowadays, the installation of water or sewage systems without E-fusion fittings is hard to imagine. Expanding fields of application have motivated AGRU to continuously expand its supply range and to fulfil market requirements.
