Automation solutions for industrial processes

Industrial companies are increasingly turning to automation to increase efficiency, safety, and precision in production. At trade fairs, companies showcase solutions for process control, machine networking, and quality assurance. Modular systems, integrated robot solutions, and smart sensor technology for industrial use are presented.

Robotics for material handling and assembly
Sensor-based systems for process monitoring
Automated testing and inspection systems
Software solutions for production planning and control
Edge computing and IoT platforms for real-time analysis

In addition to efficiency, the flexibility of the systems is also important: Modular architectures enable individual adaptations to different production lines – a decisive factor for medium-sized companies.

Materials and manufacturing technologies in industrial change

Whether lightweight construction, 3D printing, or special materials – industry is investing in new materials and innovative processes to make products more sustainable, lighter, or more durable. Messe.TV features articles on developments in additive manufacturing as well as materials with functional properties.

Metal and plastics processing with new processes
Additive manufacturing for prototyping and series production
Coating technologies for protection and durability
High-performance materials with temperature- or pressure-resistant properties

New material solutions are proving to be key factors for progress, particularly in mechanical engineering and medical technology. Numerous reports on Messe.TV document this change.

Energy efficiency and resource-saving industrial plants

Industrial companies are faced with the challenge of making production processes not only economical but also sustainable. Energy management, heat recovery, and intelligent control technology play a central role in this.

Industrial heat pump systems
