A total of 1,503 companies from 41 countries exhibited at this year’s show. „The trend for digitised manufacturing boosts innovation and business activity in the sheet metal working industry and its leading industry exhibition,” says Nicola Hamann, Managing Director of the organisers, Mack Brooks Exhibitions. „With an increase of 2 per cent in visitor numbers compared to the previous show, this year’s EuroBLECH clearly surpassed the 60,000 visitor mark. Not even the strike of two German airlines on the third exhibition day had an impact on the buoyant mood of the participants and the positive development of the visitor numbers. The results of this year’s EuroBLECH, a barometer of the industry sector, show a record floor space of some 88,000 square metres net and a sustainable increase in visitor numbers; this demonstrates a healthy economic outlook for the industry sector with its global business activity”, explains Nicola Hamann.
A total of 39 per cent of visitors and 54 per cent of exhibitors came from outside Germany at this year’s show. This is a further increase by 2 per cent each compared to the previous show and represents a record percentage in international attendance. EuroBLECH 2016 saw a major increase in Asian visitors (+30 per cent), but also in visitors from EU countries outside Germany (+11 per cent). Major visitor countries, next to Germany, included the Netherlands, Italy, Sweden, France, Spain, Switzerland, Austria, Poland, Great Britain, Turkey and India.
A great majority of the visitors came from the industry (80 per cent), followed by visitors from workshops, trade and services. Most important sectors the visitors belonged to were engineering, sheet metal & products, steel and aluminium construction as well as the automotive industry and its suppliers. With 99 per cent the percentage of trade visitors was, once again, very high. Besides the high rate of international visitors the exhibition could, once again, register a high percentage of visitors from the top management with decision-making and buying capacity. The percentage of visitors involved in decision-making has increased by 3 per cent to a total of 84 per cent.
The next EuroBLECH will be held from 23 – 27 October 2018 in Hanover, Germany. Next year Mack Brooks Exhibitions will organise BLECH India, from 27 - 29 April 2017, in Mumbai. In spring 2018 the organisers of EuroBLECH will hold Indo Sheet Metal, from 7 - 9 March 2018, in Jakarta, Indonesia, and AsiaBLECH, from 8 -10 May 2018, in Shanghai, China.

EuroBLECH: Fast joining of metal and thermoplastic materials
A new process for joining materials with different properties has been developed by Fraunhofer IWS.

This causes the thermoplastic to melt, to penetrate into the structures and to adhere to the surface. (more…)
