Vienna Technical Museum
Entrance hall of the TMW
The Vienna Technical Museum (short TMW) has exhibits and models from the history of technology with particular reference to the Austrian share in technological development. The bright patios, roofed-over by glass domes, furthermore are considered as a special feature of the museum in itself. It is located in Vienna Penzing at Mariahilferstraße in Gustav Jäger Park.
History

Central hall with Etrich-Rumpler Taube

LD Crucible (1952)
To mark the 60th anniversary of the Accession to the throne of Emperor Franz Joseph I in 1908, it was decided to establish a Technical Museum of Industry and Trade in Vienna. The initiative essentially came from Wilhelm Exner, who envisioned the idea of such a museum since the Vienna World Exhibition in the year 1873. In the founding committee were also the industrialists Arthur Krupp and Johann Kremenezky who supported the project financially, further sponsors have included Bernhard Wetzler and the Rothschild Bank. In the same year the National Technical Museum in Prague was opened.
After the location issue was clarified, the museum should be built in the 14th district of Vienna near the imperial residence in Schönbrunn on the "Spitzacker grounds", provided free of charge by the City of Vienna, the first preliminary studies were elaborated of Emil von Förster. After his sudden death in 1909, an "ideas competition" among in Vienna operating architects was tendered, in which were involved, inter alia, Otto Wagner, Adolf Loos, Rudolf Tropsch and Max Ferstel. The participants had only two months to create their designs, nevertheless 24 projects were submitted. Into the final selection made it the plans by Max Hegele, Rudolf Krausz and Hans Schneider, whose draft the studies of Förster came close and who eventually won the bid upon intervention of the heir to the throne Franz Ferdinand. Criticism from the Viennese Artist Associations provoked most of all the rejection of Otto Wagner's project.
The museum was one of the first representative reinforced concrete building in Austria (already 1904 Otto Wagner this material in the construction of the Vienna Postal Savings Bank had used). According to the contemporary tastes, the facade was designed historicizing. The structure of the building, the bright exhibition halls and the for that time very modern electrification with a total of 46.4 kilometers of installed electric lines, not least for the demonstration apparatus and machines met the requirements of a functional museum building. The original plan of Schneider provided a subsequent extension by two side wings.
On 20 June 1909, the foundation stone was laid by the emperor. The building was completed in 1913, the for 1914 planned opening but was delayed by the First World War until May 6, 1918. In March 1919, already the 100,000th visitor could be welcomed.
The museum until 1922 was operated by an association, then for economic reasons nationalized as many former sponsors at the end of the monarchy and the turmoil of the post-war period dropped away. From 1930 to 1949 Viktor Schützenhofer was director of the museum. In the era of National Socialism also the Technical Museum came into possession of objects and materials which had been roobed from the Jews. Based on the Art Restitution Act of 1998 was finally begun with Provenance Research and the State Commission for Provenance Research so far handed over 17 dossiers. In four cases, the restitution has already been carried out, including the estate of the 1942 murdered technology historian Hugo Theodor Horwitz, which was passed to his son.
From 1992 to 1999 the building was generally refurbished. At the same time, inter alia, the glass cupolas of the over roofed patios were raised by one floor and installed surrounding galleries, by which the usable area of the museum was expanded by 3,200 m². Overall, the museum after the renovation now around 28,500 m² has at its disposal. Half submerged in front of the main entrance a glass porch as entrance area was added. In it now are dressing rooms for groups of visitors, school groups, etc., cash boxes and a museum shop. As on 1 January 2000, the museum in accordance with the Federal Museums Act of 1998 was discharged in the full legal capacity; since then Gabriele Zuna-Kratky is the director of the museum.
Exhibits
Typewriter by Peter Mitterhofer (1864)
The focus of the exhibitions lies on the transfer of technical concepts. Therefore, there is a large number of functional models that give visitors the opportunity to understand technical processes, and in accordance with the technical progress are renewed again and again.
The museum is provided with numerous, sometimes rather large historical demonstration models, such as in the field of railways, shipbuilding, aviation and industry. Outstanding there are the functional steam engines. Furthermore, one of the largest collections of historic musical instruments in Austria is housed in the Museum of Technology.
During the renovation of the building and the associated restructuring of the collection, the historic rail vehicles were largely transferred to the Railway Museum Strasshof in Lower Austria, where they were looked after by the first Austrian Tram and Railway Club. More rail vehicles were left to other clubs, collections or commercial loan-takers (Leihnehmern), including, for example, the Railway Museum Schwechat (Lower Austria) of the Association of Railway Enthusiasts. End of 2008, some of the most valuable railway vehicles again were on display in the main hall of the museum after some extensive restoration, other exhibits were farmed out as loans to regional railway museums in the provinces.
The Department for road vehicles remained in the museum. It shows milestones in Austrian automotive history of the brands Austro-Daimler, Gräf & Stift, Steyr Puch, among others. The oldest showpieces include the Benz of Eugene Zardetti (1893), the first in Austria operated gasoline automobile, and one of the oldest vehicles preserved in its original state at all, the second Marcus car (1888/89). To building this collection, the then curator Hans Seper has made outstanding contributions in the period after the Second World War. From the second Marcus car under the supervision of the museum a replica was made, which was presented to the public in the presence of Federal President Heinz Fischer on 17 May 2006. With it test runs and exits are to be performed before an audience without having to strain the valuable original.
Another part with collection pieces from the first half of the 19th century comes from the in 1807 founded kk Factory products Cabinet, whose aim it was to collect industrial products from the early industrialization period of the monarchy.
The unneeded Locomotive Hall in Marchegg station in 2012 by the Technical Museum was long-term rented, renovated and equipped with tracks of different gauge. The building is used as additional depot hall for railway locomotives and wagons. Thus, a number of until now at different locations and partially outdoor deposited objects of the railway museum's collection is united in a hall and in the history of the railroad museum's collection it is for the first time achieved that all rail vehicles have found a place in an exhibition hall or at least in a depot hall.

From Wikipedia -
Hyster is an American manufacturing company specializing in forklifts and other materials-handling equipment. Hyster was founded in 1929 as the Willamette-Ersted Company in Portland, Oregon. The company was purchased in 1989 by NACCO Industries, Inc. and became a part of NACCO Materials Handling Group (NMHG) which continues to market products under the Hyster brand name today.
The name "Hyster" allegedly derives from a term commonly used by logging workers in the Pacific Northwest at the end of the 19th century. When a load of lumber was ready to be transported, a logger would yell "Hoist 'er!". According to the Hyster Company web page, this term became synonymous with Hyster trucks.
Distribution and support for Hyster products is organized around major world regions: North America and Canada; Latin America; Europe the Middle East & Africa; Asia – Pacific.
Hyster also manufactured a very successful line of compaction machinery and road rollers including machines for earth compaction, garbage compaction and asphalt compaction. Through the 1960s and 1970s Hyster was a major force in these types of machinery in America and they produced a wide range of models with many successful design concepts. Hyster was eventually absorbed into Bomag America/Compaction America (Now known as HYPAC) and some models including a small articulated rubber tire roller sold under the Hypac name is an original descendent of the Hyster machine.
Hyster also made a successful line of logging winches and compactor attachments, both of which could be attached to other manufactures machines including Caterpillar. Hyster Compactors. The Hyster name has been associated with forklift trucks for many decades, however, Hyster was also very prominent manufacturer of compaction equipment. From the 1950s through the 1980s they had a very comprehensive and well regarded line of products. Along with the Raygo company these two manufacturers were perhaps the best known in the USA, Up until European and other brands became common.
Hyster's Home office was Portland Oregon but they also had manufacturing plants in Danville, Peoria and Kewanee Illinois America. And Australia Belgium, Brazil, Canada, South Africa and Scotland (Facts from a 1969 Brochure)

2016 PHOTOCHALLENGE, WEEK 15: PORTRAITS – ENVIRONMENTAL PORTRAITS.
Ferris Wheel Operator. She rotates you around stopping at various perching points while eating and drinking 50' above the ground at Betty Danger's Restaurant and Bar in NE Minneapolis.
Again, another new welcome addition to my Metal House tin robot collection. Operator Robot released in early 2014. Again, I can see some minor imperfections in paint job here and there especially on the head with quite a few dust particles stuck while being painted – as if it was painted in a very dusty workshop but that’s hand made in old fashioned way so I can live with that even though my own QC criteria would not pass the fault if I were the manufacturer. What I heard is that the company is seriously out of crews for the last few years (there is even saying that only one person is doing the whole job from running the company and manufacturing the robots all by himself – but not confirmed) so it takes ages to get the product delivered and there are inconsistencies of finishes. Well, I guess it is the charm of human touch. The robot is approx. 11.2 inches tall.
