Markets, supply chains, manufacturing technologies, and processes are changing. Entire industries are reorienting themselves. This transformation makes it increasingly important for companies to demonstrate presence and position themselves as solution providers. When it comes to deburring and the production of precision surfaces, there is no way around the DeburringEXPO. The 4th leading trade fair for deburring technologies and precision surfaces will take place from October 12 to 14, 2021, at the Karlsruhe exhibition grounds. The exhibition portfolio covers the processing of components manufactured with all technologies and from all industries. The knowledge-based technical forum with simultaneously (German & English) translated, practice-oriented presentations completes the exhibition program.

With a 97 percent exhibitor satisfaction rate, DeburringEXPO achieves an acceptance level that few other trade fairs can match. One reason for this is the very high proportion of trade visitors at 94 percent, who are involved in operational investment decisions. And these decision-makers are specifically looking for solutions at the leading trade fair for deburring technologies and precision surfaces. "Visitors come with concrete tasks, so you can immediately dive deep into the respective topic. For example, topics from medical technology, the automotive industry, and mechanical engineering were discussed. The conversations confirmed that the requirements and demands on surface quality continue to rise," reported Mathias Schnabel, Sales Manager and Authorized Signatory at Benseler Entgratungen GmbH & Co. KG, after the last trade fair participation in October 2019.

Utilize the right environment

"The challenges faced by companies from practically all manufacturing sectors naturally also impact surface finishing processes such as deburring, rounding, the production of precision surfaces, and cleaning. These process steps are increasingly important in the growing component preparation market," explains Hartmut Herdin, Managing Director of the organizer fairXperts GmbH & Co. KG. Key requirements include further improved quality, increased efficiency, optimization, automation, and digitalization of processes, as well as solutions for components and parts produced with new and altered manufacturing technologies, such as additive manufacturing and hybrid materials.

As a specialized trade fair, DeburringEXPO precisely addresses these topics, providing a comprehensive overview of current and new solutions and highlighting current trends across various industries. The clear focus makes the leading trade fair for deburring technologies and precision surfaces an ideal environment for presenting relevant solutions, networking, and early technology detection. Leading companies in the industry also recognize this and have already booked their exhibition stands well over a year before the event, including numerous market and technology leaders. "Stoba Sondermaschinen GmbH has naturally decided once again to participate in DeburringEXPO 2021 because we consider the fair important for presenting and marketing our edge-processing and surface technologies such as electrochemical metal processing and laser processing. Organizing and participating in trade shows is risky in this time. But the fact is, trade shows are a living reflection of the economic situation and can reveal the technical-economic developments in a concentrated form. They enable visitors and exhibitors to participate. A trade show is also suitable for better understanding the reorientations in the industries. We are actively working intensively to gain a foothold in new markets. DeburringEXPO is also excellent for this," summarizes Hans-Joachim Konietzni, Sales, Stoba Sondermaschinen GmbH, the reasons for early decision-making.

Focus more on automation and cleaning

Aligned with the increasing demands for efficiency in manufacturing and changes in manufacturing technologies, such as joining, coating, and assembly, the framework program of the upcoming DeburringEXPO from October 12 to 14, 2021, presents itself. The new theme park "Automated Deburring with Industrial Robots" provides information on corresponding solutions and the integration of deburring and rounding processes into a linked/digitized production environment. The theme park "Cleaning after Deburring" addresses the growing requirements for technical cleanliness.

Knowledge transfer as added value

An established addition to the exhibition program is the integrated, three-day technical forum of DeburringEXPO. The presentations, which are in demand as a knowledge source and are simultaneously (German & English) translated, enable visitors to deepen their expertise in deburring, rounding, and the production of precision surfaces. Practical examples and benchmark solutions also offer ideas and suggestions for optimizing processes within their own companies.
