The sheet metal working industry is gearing up for its benchmark event, EuroBLECH 2024, presenting the world’s largest selection of sheet metal working technology in one place. Visitors can view thousands of exhibits and experience four days of intense product sourcing, networking and education.

“Reflected in this year’s show motto, ‘The Power of Productivity’, visitors can look forward to a trailblazing event at the core of the industry, with premier access to top-tier suppliers, live demonstrations and world premieres. Visitor registration is live, with additional ticket options for Guided Visitor Tours and a special Careers Day for emerging talent,” the show organiser, RX, told ISMR.

Visitor registration is in full swing for the 27th International Sheet Metal Working Technology Exhibition, EuroBLECH, taking place from 22-25 October 2024 at the Hanover Exhibition Grounds in Germany. It is the world’s largest exhibition for sheet metal processing, covering the entire supply chain in 15 different technology sectors across nine exhibition halls. This year’s focus is on productivity-enhancing technology, presenting the latest the market has to offer, in terms of increasing output and efficiency, while aligning individual production processes to the complex demands of smart manufacturing.

Besides Germany, major exhibitor countries for 2024 are Italy; Turkey; China; Spain; the Netherlands; Switzerland; Taiwan; Poland; Belgium; Austria; India; France and the USA. The previous EuroBLECH trade show, held in 2022, featured 1,300 exhibitors from 39 countries over a net exhibition space of 86,136 square metres.

Fostering connections

“The coming event will feature some 90,000 square metres of net exhibition space, offering direct access and networking opportunities with blue chip and SME suppliers from all over the globe, and more than 60% of exhibitors joining from outside Germany. The show floor will be a mix of well-known brands (such as Adige; AIDA; AMADA; Bystronic; Dimeco; LVD; Messer Cutting Systems; Pivatic; Prima Power; Salvagnini; Schuler; TRUMPF; Yamazaki Mazak and many others) complemented by highly specialised SMEs and first-time exhibitors,” added RX.

Exhibits cover anything to do with the processing of semi-finished and finished products, including metal sheet, tubes, profiles and plastic hybrids. Visitors will have plenty of opportunity to discover and source the latest in stamping; punching; pressing; forming; cutting; joining; welding; fastening; handling; finishing; quality control; CAD/CAM/CIM; tools; machine components; warehouse and factory equipment; material recycling; R&D and more. EuroBLECH provides numerous opportunities to watch innovative machinery live in action.

Noteworthy is the proactive stance taken by tech suppliers over recent years to future-proof the industry through innovation, efficiency and adaptability.

“If change comes at you fast, you have to come up with solutions even faster,” outlined Evelyn Warwick, Event Director of EuroBLECH, on behalf of RX.

“The integration of AI and machine learning are revolutionising the industry, enabling unprecedented levels of precision and efficiency. Automation and robotics continue to advance, streamlining production processes and reducing manual labour, while the Internet of Things connects machinery and systems for real-time monitoring and optimisation. These innovations, showcased at this year’s EuroBLECH, underscore the industry's commitment to meet growing demands for customisation, sustainability and smart manufacturing,” she added.

Network for success

Alongside thousands of exhibits and supplier representatives in the exhibition halls, the 2024 visitor experience offers a wealth of opportunities to personally engage with innovation, including the new Guided Visitor Tours on ‘Automation and Robotics’ and the ‘Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)’ to optimise production efficiency. The tours will include 10-minute presentations at each stop, followed by a short Q&A session, and can be booked on the EuroBLECH website.

In addition, EuroBLECH’s Speaker Forum delivers actionable insight and knowledge on current key topics such as ‘Automation, Robotics and Cobots’ in Forum I, and ‘Digitalisation, Industrial Metaverse (AI, VR, AR, IIoT) and Cybersecurity’ in Forum II. Sessions run on all four show days and offer exciting insights into the latest projects and product developments, as well as valuable networking opportunities and meaningful exchange amongst peers.

The prestigious EuroBLECH Awards will honour five winners for their outstanding achievements in driving technical excellence and innovation. Recognition will be given for the most innovative products, solutions and digitalisation concepts in various categories. The winners will be selected by industry professionals via online voting, starting in Autumn 2024, and the awards will be presented on Tuesday 22 October 2024 at 5pm in the Presentation Area (Stand K52) in Hall 27. The last day of the exhibition (Friday) is Careers Day again, promoting young talent in the industry.
