Motek/Bondexpo 2024 Focuses on Automation – Sustainable and Efficient

This year’s traditional meet for production automation experts, targeted at improving processes and making them more efficient, will take place from the 8th through the 11th of October, 2024.

Manufacturing companies are facing major challenges – the focus is on efficiency, cost-effectiveness and the conservation of resources, as well as compensating for the shortage of qualified personnel. During the course of a practice-oriented exchange of ideas in the customary, thematically-focused working atmosphere, production automation specialists will discuss how manufacturing processes can be further improved at the time-tested industry platform offered by Motek/Bondexpo. The trade fair’s range of topics covers four main areas: 1) networked, smart production components and systems, 2) assembly assistance systems and workstation systems, 3) solutions for easy implementation and commissioning, and 4) object recognition and image processing for inline parts detection.

Motek/Bondexpo covers the entire process sequence for economical production and assembly automation – from components and modules, right on up to subsystems and complete solutions. The target group comprises manufacturing companies from all sectors. Anyone from the manufacturing industries looking to automate a process or function, regardless of the sector – for example machine building, equipment and systems manufacturing, automotive engineering and vehicle production, sheet metal working, plastics processing, metalworking and processing, woodworking, electronics and electrical engineering, laboratory automation, healthcare and medical technology – will find the right components and solutions at Motek/Bondexpo.

 

Working Trade Fair with a Clear-Cut, Consistent Thematic Structure

Motek/Bondexpo’s trade fair concept, which has been tried and tested for decades, is distinguished by its straightforward practical relevance, as well as the clarity and consistency of its topics. Assembly assistance systems include, for example, systems for manual and semi-automatic workstations, assisted picking and assembly, software-supported operator guidance, automatic bin-picking, collaborative work with cobots, robotics and automated parts feeding and discharge. In this regard, for instance, Assemblio’s software solution for the automated preparation of assembly instructions is likely to attract interest. The preparation of assembly instructions can be rendered simpler, faster and more efficient, and the consumption of resources can be reduced, through the use of automation and state-of-the-art technology.

 

Automation – Easy to Get Started, Easy to Implement, Shaping the Future

“This is just one example of how production automation experts can work even more economically and efficiently,” says Rainer Bachert, longstanding Motek/Bondexpo project manager at trade fair promoters P. E. Schall. “Motek/Bondexpo 2024 will demonstrate examples of practical manufacturing solutions in concrete terms. The traditional autumn event will pave new and interesting paths for the industry sector with regard to cost-effectiveness, efficiency and flexibility.”

 

Exhibitors Meet the Right Target Groups

Users get concrete answers to their questions at Motek/Bondexpo. “Traditionally, Motek is our most important trade fair,” confirms Ulrich Moser, head of marketing and sales controlling at IEF Werner in Furtwangen. “Most expert visitors come with specific concerns, and we develop solutions for them directly at their own facilities after the trade fair. This is very effective.” For Igus in Cologne, Germany, the trade fair highlight is also on the agenda again in the fall of 2024: “Motek is extremely important for us. This is where engineers and designers find the solutions they’re looking for,” emphasises Alexander Mühlens, head of Low Cost Automation at Igus. The company shows how easy it can be to get started with robotics and automation. Utz Ratio Technik is also one of Motek/Bondexpo’s traditional exhibitors. “We’ve had more than forty successful years at the trade fair – we meet our customers here, as well as our suppliers”, confirmed managing director Thilo Utz.

The key topics have been identified and the supplementary programme is taking shape. Expert visitors will once again benefit from a time-efficient, clearly structured trade fair visit this autumn.
