Once again GST was part of the career day at HTL Hollabrunn.
The participation at the career day of the HTL Hollabrunn has become a yearly tradition for GST, since many of our employees are former HTL graduates – a tradition we are trying to continue in the very same way for many more years to come: Introducing our company to future generations!
We would like to thank the school for the opportunity to present our company via presentation and give the students insights into all our specialist departments and job opportunities.
We had an exciting day and many interesting conversations, with promising future prospects.
We wholeheartedly want to say „thank you for that“!

Korneuburg’s 9th „Bildungsmeile“ brought interested people to GST yet again this year.
Participating companies opened their doors and showed interested pupils the training opportunities of the available apprenticeships within the respective company. The offer was well received at GST – Our visitors were asked what impressions they were able to gather during their visit and what was special about being able to visit a production company on site.
Many conclusive answers were given:
“You see behind the scenes and can get a picture of the field of activity.”
“Lots of times it’s the little things that you see in a company that contribute to your final career choice.”
“It’s the only way to decide for yourself if you feel comfortable in the working environment.”
“You get a first hand observation regarding the atmosphere within the staff and the ways they interact with each other.”
As a training company, we are glad that the annual initiative of the WKO Lower Austria was well received yet again by families and school classes this year and we would like to express our sincere thanks to all participants!
HTL students from OPAVA gain practical experience at GST
Students from the HTL for mechanical engineering from OPAVA – SŠPU Opava – úvodní stránka – are currently completing their Erasmus traineeship at GST.
Only the best students are allowed to apply this kind of internship. If the letter of motivation is convincing, they get the opportunity to complete their internship abroad. The students are accommodated in Vienna as part of the Erasmus program and commute to Sierndorf by train.
With two weeks behind them, the students were able to get acquainted with many areas of our company. GST offers practical experience in the production and mechanical design departments as part of the internship. They are coached and accompanied by our experienced designer DI Vera Sucha, who lives in Brno and travels to GST on a daily basis. As a graduate of the Technical University CVUT Praha – Czech Technical University Prague, she is a role model for the four young students when it comes to mechanical engineering.
In an informal interview, the trainees were asked how they like working at GST:
“The activities in the mechanical design department are very interesting. The 3D program runs in German language, but thanks to intuition and experience, we are still able to work with it very efficiently.”
The two trainees who are currently working in the mechanical production department feel particularly comfortable because they can work together with colleagues of the same age who have also completed their training at GST. Because of everybody speaking English, there is no language barrier between them and if certain technical terms are unclear, translation tools make short work of problems of that nature. Many areas such as the “engraving area for machine plates”, the “spindle room” and the “assembly of assemblies” are presented and activities in these areas are taught.
And what do the young trainees think about their stay in Austria?
„We are fans of the ÖBB, it is always on time, well equipped and clean”, the way to and from work is rather hectic: „In Vienna, people are constantly on the run, whether on the way to the subway or anywhere else, there is hustle and bustle everywhere”. They enjoy their spare time, including weekend trips to i.e. the Technical Museum in Vienna, which they found to be quite interesting.
But not everything works perfectly: “The stove in the apartment always causes problems, but now it has been replaced” and “Unfortunately, the Austrian beer doesn’t taste as good as the Czech one”. 😉
All in all, the four young people find their stay in Austria very exciting and praise the internship very highly. Some of them could even imagine a life in Austria, although probably not in Vienne, but its more rural surroundings like Sierndorf.
We would like to thank the students for their interest, their cooperation and the overall great exchange!
The GST Complete Ex/In CBN grinding machine for cam pieces is currently being put into operation by our service team at the customer’s plant in Dalian. GST service employees train the staff on site.
According to customer requirements, GST designs the turnkey solution, including the design of all necessary ancillary units, parts automation and parts measurement.
This concept ensures successful 3-shift operation with 90% machine utilization.
Additional information:
The machine is loaded and unloaded automatically. The loading process is planned customized to the requirements in the plant.
As a result the machine produceses 3,101 processed parts per day at a cycle time of 22″ and an operation of 22.5 hours/day.
We would be happy to provide you with further information. Feel free to >>contact<< us with your requirements.
Students from the VS Sierndorf visited the production site of GST Grinder GmbH
GST regularly opens its doors to present the company to students and other interested parties. On March 7th, 2023 we were able to welcome our youngest visitor classes to date – the 4th grade of the Sierndorf elementary school, accompanied by their teachers Ms. Regina Stocklasser and Ms. Karoline Wolf.
The children showed great interest and there were many exciting questions to be answered
Passing on knowledge
It’s important to us to share the enthusiasm for our profession and activities. Passing on our company’s know-how to the younger generations is crucial for our future development. That’s why we also train apprentices in-house in the fields of “Metal Technology” and “Construction”.
Many young people do not know about certain occupational fields. The “traditional professions” are very popular amongst girls and boys. We would like to present the opportunities, which we – as a company – are able to offer. We wish to inspire interest at an early stage and – later on – share our knowledge with anyone who decides to apply to us.
This year, as in the previous years, GST Grinder GmbH is following the motto “donating instead of making gifts” and is supporting the “We get help on its way” campaign with a Christmas donation. This campaign is in support of all people whose lives are in danger.
“Doctors Without Borders” is active independently and impartially in over 70 nations all around the world and brings medical care to needy people in crisis areas and war zones.
We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to our customers, business partners and employees for the good cooperation, that has always been characterized by trust, loyalty and commitment. Without their help, we would not be able to make this valuable contribution.
We wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
