St Albans, UK – EuroBLECH 2024 is gearing up to be a benchmark event for the sheet metal working industry, featuring thousands of exhibits and four days of intense product sourcing, networking, and learning.

Visitor registration is now live, with additional ticket options for Guided Visitor Tours and a special Careers Day for emerging talent.

Visitor registration has just kicked off for the 27th International Sheet Metal Working Technology Exhibition, EuroBLECH, taking place from October 22-25, 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.

The coming event will feature some 90,000 sq mt of net exhibition space, offering direct access and networking opportunities with blue-chip and SME suppliers from all over the globe, with more than 60 percent of exhibitors joining from abroad. Besides Germany, the major exhibitor countries for 2024 are Italy, Turkey, China, Spain, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Taiwan, Poland, Belgium, Austria, India, France, and the USA. The show floor will be a mix of well-known brands, such as Adige, AIDA, Amada, Bystronic, Dimeco, Durma, Haco, LVD, Messer Cutting Systems, Pivatic, Prima Power, Salvagnini, Schuler, Thyssen, TRUMPF, Yamazaki Mazak, and many others, complemented by highly specialized SMEs and first-time exhibitors showing their innovative strength on the market.

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 opportunities 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 so much more.

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,” says Evelyn Warwick, Event Director, EuroBLECH, on behalf of RX. “The integration of AI and machine learning is revolutionizing the industry, enabling unprecedented levels of precision and efficiency. Automation and robotics continue to advance, streamlining production processes and reducing manual labor, while the Internet of Things connects machinery and systems for real-time monitoring and optimization. These innovations, showcased at this year’s EuroBLECH, underscore the industry’s commitment to meet the growing demands for customization, sustainability, and smart manufacturing.”

A Unique Visitor Journey to the ‘Power of Productivity’

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 optimize production efficiency. In addition, the popular 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, IoT) and Cybersecurity’ in Forum II.
