EuroBLECH 2018-Experience Digitalised Sheet Metal working live in Hanover
EuroBLECH 2018, the 25th International
Sheet Metal Working Technology Exhibition, will open its doors tomorrow at the
Hanover Exhibition Centre in Germany. Until Friday, the 26th October
2018, a total of 1,507 exhibitors from 40 countries will present the latest
technologies along the entire sheet metal processing chain. With a net
exhibition space of 89,875 square metres, this year’s EuroBLECH has further
grown in exhibition space by 2,000 square metres, compared to the last event in
2016.
This year, 58% of exhibitors at EuroBLECH come from
outside Germany. The percentage of international exhibiting companies has thus
increased by a further 4%. Biggest exhibitor countries are Germany, Italy,
China, Turkey, the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, Denmark, the USA and
Austria.
For this year’s 25th edition of EuroBLECH,
the main topics are Industry 4.0, big data and digitalisation. These new trends
and developments offer advantages in terms of new business approaches,
streamlined and less complex processes as well as improvement of productivity
and efficiency. Therefore, the organisers, Mack Brooks Exhibitions, have chosen
the motto ‘Step into the digital reality’ as the overall theme of EuroBLECH
2018. Visitors can expect the most comprehensive technology range in terms of
industrial digitalisation of sheet metal working at the show this year.
EuroBLECH, the industry sector’s leading trade
exhibition, presents the entire sheet metal working technology chain, ranging
from high tech systems to conventional machinery: sheet metal, semi-finished
and finished products, handling, separation, forming, flexible sheet metal
working, joining, welding and surface treatment, processing of hybrid
structures, tools, additive manufacturing, quality control, CAD/CAM/CIM systems
and R&D. The show attracts sheet metal working specialists at every
management level in small and medium-sized companies as well as in large
enterprises. Visitors include design engineers, production managers, quality
managers, buyers, manufacturers, technical directors and experts from
associations and R&D.
