About Us

The wagon plant of Studénka was founded in 1900 as the joint-stock company of Staudinger Waggonfabrik, A.G. based in Butovice. The factory, an integral part of which was the forge from the very beginning, significantly affected the life of the citizens of the originally agricultural region. It gave jobs and support to a lot of people who dedicated most of their time and energy to it. Over the times, its name and owner have changed for several times.

Energy Optimization in MSV Metal Studénka, a.s.

The purpose of the project was to reduce the energy consumption in selected production buildings of MSV Metal Studénka, a.s. in Studénka which had higher energy consumption and heat losses, and the condition of which was unsatisfactory in terms of the heat passage coefficient. Based on a thorough analysis of the existing condition of the buildings conducted by the VSB – Technical University of Ostrava, the energy saving measures were indicated and subsequently implemented, including but not limited to:

  • NO1 – Reconstruction of identified panes and skylights
  • NO2 – Reconstruction of the existing air compressors
  • NO3 – Utilization of waste heat from air compressors
Renewal of blasting machines in MSV Metal Studénka a.s.

The purpose of the project is to reduce the energy consumption and increase the efficiency of the metal surface treatment process in the MSV forge. The objective will be achieved by replacing two existing blasting machines with one new blasting machine.

Research and development of an L-category bumper for freight railcars with a minimum dynamic energy input of 70 kJ

The purpose of the project is to develop a hybrid type bumper for safe and environmentally friendly transport of freight by rail, which is made possible by bumpers with greater energy absorption and absorption. The outputs of the project will be a semi-production and also an industrial model, where the expected result is a cat. L with a minimum received dynamic energy of 70 kJ.

The project is solved by the cooperation of partners MSV Metal Studénka, a.s., PKS servis spol. s r.o., University of Technology and Economics in České Budějovice and University of Mining – Technical University Ostrava.

The project is co-financed by the European Union.
