Industry will thrive at the Bilbao Exhibition Centre from 6th to 8th June thanks to the parallel hosting of Ferroforma, Subcontratación, Addit3D, Pumps & Valves Maintenance and Fitmaq, along with Workinn and Polveri & ecoCoating, another two events related to the industrial sectors. Over 1200 exhibiting firms from all over the world will participate in this great platform, which will be inspired on the principles of Industry 4.0 to offer innovations in key sectors such as additive manufacturing and 3D printing, industrial subcontracting, hardware, industrial supplies and DIY, pumps and valves, maintenance, second-hand machine-tooling and industrial jobs.
The sum of these six events in a single space will offer a full journey through the most advanced industry, where visiting professionals are will be able to find customised solutions in manufacturing processes, the latest technologies, supplies and tools, as well as equipment for industrial processes and products for the maintenance of assets and facilities. It will be the biggest meeting point devoted to Smart Manufacturing which will be held in our country this year, and in which commercial exhibitions will be combined with technical seminars, live presentations, workshops and international programmes of B2B meetings in Halls 1,2,3 and 5 of the Basque exhibition centre.
Over 18,500 professionals from 65 countries came to this multiple meeting in 2015, when the sum of industrial events promoted very interesting synergies and fostered new channels of collaboration between different sectors and companies. This year, industry will be consolidated with even more force, if possible, with the incorporation of Workinn, industrial job forum, Polveri & ecoCoating, space devoted to surface coatings, and Addit3D, fair devoted to additive manufacturing technologies and 3D printing, whose advance is unstoppable.
MAINTENANCE: will address 4.0 in maintenance and new business models
Maintenance will be a showcase that is open to the latest trends and developments in industrial maintenance, the management of assets and installations and production reliability within the framework of advanced maintenance. Around 70 exhibiting firms will participate in the event, displaying their products and services in metering, evaluation and control, tribology, maintenance technologies and industrial services, software solutions, environmental services, asset and facilities management.
Like in its first edition, Maintenance will once more be committed to combining its exhibition area with conferences and other professional exchange spaces, in order to group together all of the essential maintenance services for industry at the Bilbao Exhibition Centre.
In the conference programme, Information Technologies – Predictive Maintenance, an essential element for smart manufacturing, will occupy a key place. Indeed, industry today is strongly conditioned by the need to use the installed machinery efficiently and increase maintenance activities to higher levels. Furthermore, Maintenance will also address new business models arising in the field of maintenance, which are related to trends such as the provision of additional services and outsourcing. Among the speakers, representatives from Iberia, SKF, Acciona Energía, TMB Metro Barcelona and GE Digital can be highlighted.
The Maintenance programme will include “Innovation Workshops” in which exhibiting firms will briefly present their products and solutions, highlighting their most innovative and technologically advanced component. The companies registered in this section, which will be held on 8th June, are DTCO, GE Digital, Nueva Gestión Informática, GMAO Corim, Bender Iberia, Atlas Copco Rental, Grupo Surus Inversa, Business Net Engine, PREDYCSA-Predictivo y Control, Carl Software and COGELSA.
The parallel activities represent one of the great attractions and hallmarks of this fair, for which a full programme has been drawn up, including technical visits to leading local companies in the petrochemical and industrial gases sector: Petronor and Praxair. Maintenance, which is organised by Easyfairs and Bilbao Exhibition Centre, is sponsored by Ondoan, Atten2 and GE Digital.
