Welcome to EMO Hannover – World’s leading trade fair for production technology

EMO Hannover 2023: Overview

The EMO as the World Trade Fair for Machine Tools and Metalworking is held alternately in Hanover and Milan. International exhibitors present at this trade fair, the latest materials, products and applications. Numerous lectures and forums used to exchange information between manufacturers and users. This exhibition is the forum for the acquisition of new customers.

On the whole the organisers welcomed on the 6 days of the fair, from 16. September to 21. September 2019, about 1,17,000 visitors on the EMO in Hanover.

The EMO will take place on 6 days from Monday, 18. September to Saturday, 23. September 2023 in Hanover.

The EMO Hannover organiser VDW (German Machine Tool Builders’ Association) invited visitors to attend the major preview for the event in Frankfurt am Main on July 5 and 6. EMO Hannover is scheduled to take place from September 18 to 23, but 31 exhibitors have been giving a sneak preview of their innovations ahead of the event.

The EMO Hannover 2023 preview was held for the first time in Frankfurt am Main. The event has a long tradition and is both the climax and conclusion of our EMO Hannover World Tour. At around 60 events held in 40 countries, from Japan to Mexico and from Finland to South Africa, the trade fair organisers have been presenting EMO Hannover 2023 to the EMO community since the beginning of the year.

Dr. Markus Heering, his Executive Director colleague at the VDW, continues: “Under the banner of Innovate Manufacturing. we have decided to focus on three megatopics at EMO Hannover this year: The Future of Business, The Future of Connectivity and The Future of Sustainability in Production. The aim here is to show that production technology is not merely of interest to experts, but that the industry is doing its part to solve the most pressing problems of our time. And that’s what exhibitors are showing — in impressive variety and depth — with their technical solutions here at the preview and at the fair itself in September.”

More than 1,750 exhibitors from 42 countries are currently expected at EMO Hannover 2023. They will present the entire spectrum of production technology. Major points of interest include machining centers and lathes, cutting tools and clamping devices, measuring equipment and control systems. “The breadth of the technical offerings is unparalleled at the international trade fair for production technology,” emphasised Markus Heering. The event highlights the challenges that exist in production: greater efficiency, more flexibility, better quality, increased accuracy, the integration of AI, comprehensive factory-wide networking, and much more besides.

EMO Hannover 2023 is offering various joint stands aimed at drawing attention to specific trend topics: Additive Manufacturing, Connectivity, Cobots and Sustainability in Production. “In particular, latest developments such as those showcased in the Sustainability in Production Area are attracting a lot of interest, as exhibitors are keen to reposition themselves in this field,” reported Dr. Wilfried Schäfer, Executive Director of the VDW. Research institutes will also feature prominently on the stand, using it to present their sustainability projects.

Trend forum for the future of production technology

As a leading trade fair for production technology, EMO Hannover 2023 aims to cover all the important topics relating to the industrial value chain, to present the current state of the art and to highlight possible scenarios for future development. “In addition to the aforementioned topics, a further focus will be on the recruitment of skilled workers on the Special Training Stand. The range of services offered by the Youth Education and Development Foundation for Mechanical Engineering has been expanded beyond initial vocational training to include ongoing training and development,” Markus Heering explained. The special Umati stand will feature a major live demonstration aimed at showcasing the latest developments in the connectivity initiative for the mechanical and plant engineering industry as a basis for effective networking within and between factories. Finally, the Startup Area will be promoting pioneering collaboration with young companies, said Schäfer, describing two further examples.

The joint stands will be complemented by two forums in halls 9 and 16 of the Hannover exhibition center. They provide a platform for exhibitors’ presentations on technology topics and for in-depth presentations on special Future Insights topics. The program includes a conference on business opportunities in the Indian market, and two half-days entitled “New digital work — opportunity or disenfranchisement?” Both go into greater depth on individual aspects of the Future of Business. Further Future of Connectivity half-days will address the topics of Umati and Energy efficiency through digitalisation. Sustainability in production aspects will finally be covered in presentations and discussions on e-mobility, climate-neutral production, the potential of circular business models and best practices with regard to sustainability in production.

The presentations are closely linked to the EMO Hannover 2023 digital service, which was launched in the run-up to the trade fair. “Some of the presentations, conferences and key topics will be streamed live or recorded and will be available on demand via our website at www.emo-hannover.de — just like this Preview, incidentally. Our aim here is to extend the reach of our exhibitors and to ensure that visitors who may not be able to take advantage of all the offerings are kept in the loop in terms of in-depth information and discussions,” explained Wilfried Schäfer of the VDW.

Cultivation and expansion of international networks

All the above forums and events not only provide in-depth information, but also promote discussion and the sharing of ideas and experience among participants. As the world’s leading trade fair for production technology, EMO Hannover 2023 is better suited than any other to grow the international network by attracting further manufacturing experts from the supplier and customer sides as well as from the scientific community. EMO Hannover 2023 digital is already making a contribution to this — even across geographical borders — with its EMO sessions, digital chats and video meetings in the run-up to the fair itself. In addition, all visitors receive a matchmaking offer when they register online in the ticket store. There they can enter their profile and interests and, based on any potential matches, can then arrange appointments with people who share the same interests.

“After a four-year break, EMO is returning to Hannover — with a new concept, with a new look and with renewed energy,” concluded Wilfried Schäfer. “The mood is buzzing. That much emerged clearly from the Preview. Our exhibitors and we, the organisers, are very much looking forward to reconnecting with our customers and business partners.”
