The 16th Blechexpo International Trade Fair continues its preparations

The trade fair duo will present modern, forward-looking sheet metal processing and showcase entire process sequences. The event enjoys highest levels of interest and is framed by a world-class supplementary programme including “best-Award 2023” and the “Blechexpo Steel Convention 2023”.

More than eight months before the next Blechexpo international trade fair for sheet metal processing and Schweisstec international trade fair for joining technology, trade fair promoters P. E. Schall have announced a full house. The nine halls at the Stuttgart Exhibition Centre are fully booked, reports Georg Knauer, project manager of the time-tested Blechexpo/Schweisstec trade fair duo. “Interest in Blechexpo/Schweisstec is once again enormous,” confirms Knauer. “Most exhibitors booked again immediately after the last event in 2021, and even requested additional booth floor space for 2023 as well.” In order to provide trade visitors with the best possible thematic overview, as well as an efficient trade fair visit, the trade fair team has structured the current layout of the nine halls for Blechexpo/Schweisstec in a targeted manner. Sheet metal, pipe and profile processing will be located in halls 1, 3, 5 and 9. Halls 4 and 6 are reserved for stamping technologies. Cutting, joining and fastening technologies will be presented in hall 7. Hall 8 will focus on pressing and forming technologies. Finally, the issues of steel and metal services, as well as surface finishing technology, will be addressed in hall 10.

Once every two years, the trade fair presents numerous issues covering all aspects of thermal and mechanical sheet metal processing, along with system peripherals including controllers and software, as well as solutions for handling and quality assurance. With its cutting-edge technologies, the trade fair duo impressively reflects the industry sector’s performance capabilities. Blechexpo/Schweisstec has established itself as an important leading trade fair and a valuable business platform for many companies. Expert visitors hold its clear-cut, practice-oriented presentation of the targeted issues in high esteem. The sheet metal working industry is currently facing the challenges of energy efficiency, resource conservation and cost-effectiveness, which is why high priority is being placed on ever greater degrees of digitalisation and automation in order to optimise processes.
