EUROBLECH in Hanover is the world's leading trade fair for the entire sheet metal working technology chain. It is regarded as a showcase for innovations, a marketplace for investments, and a networking platform for experts from industry, mechanical engineering, automation, and digital manufacturing. Every two years, the industry gathers here to present the latest developments along the entire process chain: from materials to processing, assembly, and quality assurance.
Manufacturers, suppliers, engineers, and decision-makers from over 40 countries use the exhibition to present machines, tools, software solutions, and system technology. The special focus is on the integration of digitalization, sustainability, and automation into the modern manufacturing world. This positions EUROBLECH as an indispensable platform for the metalworking industry at the interface between productivity, resource conservation, and technological transformation.
The product areas at EUROBLECH are clearly structured and cover all steps of modern sheet metal working: cutting, forming, punching, lasering, welding, joining, surface treatment, tool technology, and CAD/CAM solutions. The focus is particularly on high-precision machines, flexible manufacturing cells, automated handling solutions, and digital control and analysis platforms. Anyone interested in other industry and manufacturing trade fairs in Lower Saxony will find a comprehensive overview of related events at Hannover Messe – from EMO to HANNOVER MESSE. EUROBLECH addresses key topics for the future: How can processes be networked through Industry 4.0? What role do AI-supported production control and predictive maintenance play? And how can sheet metal processing companies meet the increasing demands for energy efficiency and sustainability?
With around 60 percent of exhibitors coming from abroad and a high proportion of international trade visitors, EUROBLECH is one of the most global trade fairs of its kind. It not only serves as a sales market for machines and systems, but also as a meeting place for strategic exchange, cooperation, and technological alliances. Companies from Germany, Italy, Japan, the USA, Switzerland, China, and South Korea present their latest developments on an equal footing. For many medium-sized companies, EUROBLECH is also a stage on which to assert themselves in international competition—through specialization, quality, and innovative strength.
Sheet metal manufacturing is no longer just a classic mechanical process. Materials are becoming lighter, stronger, and more multifunctional. Machines are working more efficiently, more precisely, and in a more networked manner. And the demand for customized, small series is constantly increasing. EUROBLECH shows how modern production is responding to these requirements. The focus is on new materials such as high-strength steels, aluminum alloys, and composite materials. Questions of recycling management will also be discussed, for example in relation to material recovery, waste avoidance, and energy-optimized processes. Sustainability is seen not only as an ecological goal, but also as an economic competitive advantage.
In addition to the product show, EUROBLECH offers a varied supporting program with technical presentations, live demonstrations, panels, and discussion rounds. Trade associations, universities, and companies share their expertise here—for example, on new standards, digital planning processes, or trends in mechanical engineering. Young companies and start-ups also have their own stage. In special innovation areas, they present agile solutions for automation, simulation, robotics, and additive manufacturing. This makes the trade show a place where traditional companies and new players can meet in search of synergies, cooperation, and sustainable business models.
EUROBLECH is also explicitly aimed at young talent. With special tours, career days, and educational initiatives, the trade show appeals to school students, university students, trainees, and young professionals. The goal is to spark enthusiasm for technology and highlight concrete career prospects in a highly innovative industry. In addition, many exhibitors focus on training marketing: live demonstrations on machines, insights into the working world of modern plant engineering, and personal discussions with trainers make a visit to the trade fair worthwhile for young people.
EUROBLECH is more than a machine trade fair – it is a place for ideas, exchange, and the technological future. With its international reach, clear focus on practicality and efficiency, and emphasis on digitalization and sustainability, it demonstrates how the metalworking industry is changing. For anyone involved in sheet metal production, design, or planning, EUROBLECH in Hanover is a key meeting place—every two years, but with an impact that lasts far beyond the exhibition itself.
