On the very first day of the fair, it was already clear that automatica would once again assert its role as the central industry meeting place this year. Manufacturers, system integrators, software providers and users are using the platform to exchange ideas about current challenges and future solutions. Starting the following day, the first videos and editorial reports will be published on Messe.TV, providing in-depth insight into the fair.

Automatica as a global meeting place for industrial automation

Automatica is considered one of the world's most important meeting places for industrial automation and robot-assisted production. The spectrum of technologies on display is correspondingly broad. In addition to classic industrial robots, the focus is on flexible automation solutions, collaborative systems and modular production concepts. Many exhibitors will demonstrate how manufacturing processes can be made more efficient without losing adaptability. Special attention will be paid to the integration of different systems. Networked machines, standardised interfaces and continuous data flows are central themes that run through numerous presentations. The trade fair thus offers not only an overview of individual products, but also of entire solution architectures for modern production environments.

Artificial intelligence and software-driven production

One focus of this year's automatica is the increasing use of artificial intelligence in industrial applications. AI-supported image processing, adaptive control systems and self-learning processes are no longer a vision of the future, but can already be seen in concrete applications. Many companies are demonstrating how intelligent software can improve quality assurance, reduce waste and optimise maintenance processes. It is becoming clear that software is playing an increasingly important role in industrial automation. Production facilities are increasingly understood as digital systems that continuously collect and evaluate data. Automatica offers a platform where hardware and software are conceived and presented together.

Service robotics and new fields of application

In addition to classic industrial automation, service robotics is also continuing to gain in importance. Mobile robots, autonomous transport systems and assistance solutions for various areas of application can be seen at many stands. These systems are not only used in industrial manufacturing, but also in logistics, medicine and services. The trade fair shows how robots can be increasingly integrated into existing working environments. Safety, intuitive operation and flexible application options are at the forefront. For many visitors, the event thus offers an overview of new fields of application that go beyond the traditional factory.

Significance for industry and decision-making processes

For companies, automatica is not only a showcase, but also a place for strategic orientation. Investment decisions, technology partnerships and long-term development strategies are often prepared in direct exchange. Personal contact between manufacturers and users plays a central role in this. Messe.TV picks up on these aspects in its reporting and classifies technical developments editorially. The aim is not only to showcase products, but also to present their significance for industrial processes and economic decisions in an understandable way. On-site reporting from Munich makes it possible to identify trends at an early stage and bring together different perspectives.

Outlook for Messe.TV's reporting

In the coming days, Messe.TV will publish further reports on the trade fair. Interviews with exhibitors, insights into new technologies and thematic focuses on robotics, automation and intelligent production are planned. This will not only document the trade fair, but also provide in-depth content. The current coverage of automatica in Munich shows how much the industry is changing – and how important platforms are on which this change can be seen, discussed and contextualised. Messe.TV remains right at the heart of the action and reports continuously on the trade fair.
