complementary areas of expertise that together ensure reliable and well thought-out solutions.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your reliable partner for measurement technology in rail transportation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For almost two decades, we have stood for precise and reliable measurement technology in rail transportation. Our many years of specialization have enabled us to build up and continuously develop in-depth expertise. PJ Messtechnik was the first privately accredited testing laboratory in Austria to be recognized by the Federal Ministry just two years after it was founded - proof of the high quality standards we have pursued from the very beginning.<\/p>\n<p>Today, PJM is an accredited test center for six test areas: Driving technology, strength, brakes, acoustics, aerodynamics and pantograph - in the latter area we are even the only test center in Austria.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Technology from space travel - rethought for rail freight transport<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This expertise is complemented by our second major competence: engineering, in which PJ Messtechnik has done truly pioneering work: For the first time, we have successfully transferred topology optimization, which originally came from the aerospace industry, to freight wagons. The aim here is to develop components with the lowest possible weight and at the same time maximum structural safety - a combination that is particularly in demand in rail transport.<\/p>\n<p>PJM is also one of the internationally recognized specialists in the field of multi-body simulation and finite element calculation. With sound methodological expertise and modern simulation technology, we support the development of safe, efficient and sustainable vehicles.<\/p>\n<p><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ffb-id-2rj15v9d fg-col

Only two years later, PJM received the accreditation as testing facility (approved by the Austrian Federal Ministry for Digital and Economic Affairs and by the German EBA). International customers trust in the know-how and competence of the co-founders Martin Joch and G&uuml;nter Petschnig. First customers were well-known companies such as London Underground, Toronto Cable Car, Doppelmayr, Westbahn &Ouml;BB or SBB. Martin Joch and G&uuml;nter Petschnig put a strong focus on R&amp;D. Thus, PJM has developed cutting-edge technology and pioneering systems such the internationally patented WaggonTracker, <a href=\"https:\/\/pjm.co.at\/en\/products\/meran\/\">instrumented wheel set<\/a> and many more.<\/p>\n<p>Due to the consistent growth of the companies, the two founders now focus on one company each. Martin Joch is CEO of PJ Messtechnik GmbH (accredited test center according to ISO\/IEC 17065 and engineering) and G&uuml;nter Petschnig is CEO of PJ Monitoring GmbH (digital freight transport).<\/p>\n<p><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ffb-id-2rj2evk3 fg-col col-xs-12 col-md-6 fg-text-dark\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ffb-id-2rj36sl3 fg-image  img-responsive full-width fg-text-dark\" src=\"https:\/\/pjm.co.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/geschichte.jpg\" alt=\"Solutions\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><style>.ffb-id-2rj2bfkv{ \npadding-top: 5px;\n\n}\n@media (min-width:992px) { \n.ffb-id-2rj2bfkv{ \npadding-top: 30px;\n\n}\n}.ffb-id-2rj2evjt{ padding-top: 5px;}@media (min-width:992px) { .ffb-id-2rj2evjt{ padding-top: 30px;}}<\/style><script type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><section class=\"ffb-id-30au6t59 fg-section fg-text-dark\" id=\"Management\"><div class=\"fg-container container fg-container-large fg-container-lvl--1 \"><div class=\"fg-row row    \" ><div class=\"ffb-id-30au6t5a fg-col col-xs-12 col-md-6 fg-text-dark\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ffb-id-30au6t5d fg-image  img-responsive full-width fg-text-dark\" src=\"https:\/\/pjm.co.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Martin-Joch-Geschaeftsfuehrer-PJ-Messtechnik.jpg\"><p class=\"ffb-id-30au6t5e fg-paragraph text-left    fg-text-dark\">Martin Joch, PhD (Managing Director of PJ Messtechnik GmbH)<\/p><\/div><div class=\"ffb-id-30au6t5f fg-col col-xs-12 col-md-6 fg-text-dark\"><h2 class=\"ffb-id-8ko5snh0 fg-heading text-left    fg-text-dark\">Management<\/h2><div class=\"ffb-id-30au6t5j fg-paragraph ff-richtext text-left    fg-text-dark\"><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Martin Joch, PhD<\/strong><br \/>Managing Director of PJ Messtechnik GmbH<\/p>\n<p>Focus: Measuring and test technique, engineering, corporate development, human resources and project development.<\/p>\n<p>Martin Joch is the one who knows all the facts and figures of railway business and who will always find a solution for any kind of technical challenge.
