Breathed new life into METAV

Large crowds in the halls, satisfied exhibitors: The new area concept has breathed new life into METAV 2016, the International Trade Fair for Metalworking Technologies in Dusseldorf.


Whether they are interested in the core sector of machines, tooling and measuring technology, the product areas of additive manufacturing (AM) and quality or the two customer segments medical and moulding, each of which is presented in areas bearing these names – trade visitors can inform themselves about the entire process chain and can find capable contacts to discuss any issue, from product ideas to production and quality assurance.

“We are delighted that the response to METAV and its new concept has been so positive”, says Dr Wilfried Schäfer, Director of VDW (German Machine Tool Builders’ Association), which organised METAV. “The relaunch of METAV has proved to be a complete success. With an increase of 11 per cent in the number of visitors to more than 35,000, it has reclaimed its leading position in the diaries of the international metalworking community in impressive style.”

According to the organizers, the visitors were most interested in machine tools, CAD/CAM, testing and measuring technology, tool and mould production and additive manufacturing. The METAV 2018 – the International Trade Fair for Metalworking Technologies - will be taking place in Düsseldorf from 20 to 24 February 2018.
