Josef POL\u00c1K<\/strong> became a renowned innovator all over the world, with patents registered both in our country and in the <strong>USA, Germany, UK, Italy, and Sweden.<\/strong> He was the first to develop and manufacture cold chamber die casting machines, a technological leader in Europe in the years 1928\u20131938, an exporter to many countries, a development center that moved die casting from an experimental method to an industrial standard.<\/p>\n<p>His work laid the foundations for modern high-pressure casting of aluminum and zinc. <strong>Ing. Josef Pol\u00e1k<\/strong> died on October 17, 1939 in Prague, just before he could emigrate. However, the production of pressure presses continued, but was transferred to the Vltavsk\u00fd company in Rakovn\u00edk, later <strong>TOS Rakovn\u00edk<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>As I found on Wikipedia,<em> Nazi Germany benefited significantly from his patents and machines during the war. Companies producing aluminum castings for war production (N\u00fcral, Mahle and others) largely used machines from the <strong>POLAK Prague<\/strong> company, or their copies. This is documented in a file by two American experts, researching the machinery and technology of die casting factories in occupied Germany in 1945. Of the Pol\u00e1k family, only the older son survived the consequences of the Holocaust, who managed to leave for Britain in time. There he later founded a die casting company under the name <strong>Proma<\/strong> (Progress Maschienen).<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Because the <strong>Pol\u00e1k family<\/strong> was of Jewish origin, the property was probably Aryanized during the war, and later nationalized. I have not been able to find out if it was returned to the family as part of the restitution after the revolution, but it is unlikely. From the records, it seems that the restitutions applied to property nationalized after 1948, and here the property was taken during the war by the Nazis. The second problem was that there was no one left to take over the company<\/p>\n<p>In 1992, just like our first vacuum heat treatment shop in Czech Republic <strong>HT-PROGRES,<\/strong> the company <strong>POLAK s.r.o.<\/strong> was registered in the Commercial Register. However, no Pol\u00e1k name appears in the history of entries under <strong>ID 47124954<\/strong>, so it is not clear how it happened exactly. The company&#8217;s managing director was <strong>Anton\u00edn Proch\u00e1zka<\/strong>. If I recall, there was only a tool shop and one pressure press for testing dies at D\u011blnick\u00e1 63.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/intelligent-kalam.80-240-27-133.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/obrazek7-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-13635\" src=\"https:\/\/intelligent-kalam.80-240-27-133.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/obrazek7-3-300x207.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"207\" srcset=\"https:\/\/intelligent-kalam.80-240-27-133.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/obrazek7-3-300x207.jpg 300w, https:\/\/intelligent-kalam.80-240-27-133.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/obrazek7-3.jpg 604w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><u>Fig. 7<\/u><\/em><\/strong><em>\u00a0 &#8211; The original building of the <strong>POLAK<\/strong> company at D\u011blnick\u00e1 Street 63(<a href=\"https:\/\/martinfryc.eu\/galerie\/tovarna\/\">https:\/\/martinfryc.eu\/galerie\/tovarna\/<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In 2007, the company merged with <strong>CML SYNERGY<\/strong> s.r.o., but <strong>Anton\u00edn Proch\u00e1zka<\/strong> had already been removed from the register at that time, having left the company in 2003.

And since <strong>Bodycote<\/strong> also had <strong>Corwyn Berger<\/strong> on his team at the time, we had a perfect teacher in our own team. That cannot be forgotten. Unfortunately, since 2001, when he lectured in Brno, tool shops have not learned much.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, die casting has skyrocketed into a field that now wants to preferentially produce cars via <strong>GIGA casting<\/strong>. And let&#8217;s face it, it&#8217;s the path of the future, which was started by our engineer <strong>Josef Pol\u00e1k<\/strong> from Prague.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/intelligent-kalam.80-240-27-133.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/obrazek14.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-13649\" src=\"https:\/\/intelligent-kalam.80-240-27-133.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/obrazek14-300x169.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/intelligent-kalam.80-240-27-133.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/obrazek14-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/intelligent-kalam.80-240-27-133.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/obrazek14.png 598w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><u>Fig. 14<\/u><\/em><\/strong><em>\u00a0&#8211; <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/thinkster.co\/content\/tesla-giga-press-6\">https:\/\/thinkster.co\/content\/tesla-giga-press-6<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The circle has closed.
