The 16th Blechexpo, international trade fair for sheet metal processing, took place together with the 9th Schweisstec, international trade fair for joining technology, with impressive success. 1,256 exhibitors from 38 countries in nine fully booked halls and a high-caliber, tightly packed supporting program thrilled 40,103 trade visitors. The ‘best-Award 2023’ has produced many shining winners.
Completely satisfied – this is how exhibitors, visitors, and organizers of this year’s Blechexpo/Schweisstec present themselves. The trade fair, which depicts complete process flows of modern and future-proof sheet metal processing, took place from November 7 to 10, 2023, in Stuttgart and once again proved to be a great industry highlight, where the best of the best in the sheet metal processing sector met. “That was another trade fair as one would wish,” summarizes Georg Knauer, project manager of Blechexpo/Schweisstec. “Nine full halls with 1,256 exhibitors from 38 countries – those were exciting four days of the fair for everyone involved. We saw many new machines and solutions that point the way to the future of modern, sustainable sheet metal processing. And a foreign exhibitor share of 45 percent also proves once again this year the high global importance of Blechexpo/Schweisstec.”
