Volatile markets, supply chains interrupted or affected by legislation, global crises, shifts in mobility and energy policy — these and many other aspects can cause uncertainty. This also applies to companies in the metalworking industry, machine tool manufacturers, and suppliers. However, the industry realizes that it has a solution in the form of innovations in its core technology as well as smart and timely integration of its products into its customers' processes. But this also needs to be communicated to the outside world. AMB provides an ideal platform in this respect.
Messe Stuttgart will once again become the focus of the metalworking industry from September 10 to 14, 2024: AMB — International Exhibition for Metal Working — will open its doors and the world’s leading manufacturers of metal cutting machine tools, precision tools and everything related to the process chain will showcase their offerings. Whether for mechanical engineering, automotive and vehicle manufacturing, medical technology, tooling and mold making, aerospace engineering, or the general metalworking and processing industry, every user in the metal cutting industry will find a compelling range of innovations and technologies at the fully booked trade fair grounds in Stuttgart. The products and services will include modern machine tools, production systems, their control units, drives, CAD/CAM, comprehensive automation solutions, related measuring systems, Industry 4.0 solutions, collaborative robotics, and artificial intelligence.
Sebastian Schmid, Vice President of Messe Stuttgart, stressed: “The industry is currently facing some challenges. Companies will only be able to stay successful in the market if they continue to evolve and stay on their toes. This is even more relevant considering the current circumstances. During a one-day visit to AMB, you will be able not only get a comprehensive overview of how these new exciting technologies can enhance your company, but also take advantage of networking opportunities, enjoy the appealing accompanying program, and engage in discussions with the metalworking industry.”
An international industry highlight
AMB 2024 will showcase a broad spectrum of exhibitors from various sectors within the metalworking industry. From large international corporations, small and medium-sized businesses, and hidden champions to startups, visitors will gain a comprehensive overview of the current state and efficiency of the metalworking industry. Both travel to the Stuttgart Trade Fair Center and attendance at the exhibition are easy and convenient: Since the exhibition areas for machine tools, production systems, precision tools, measuring systems and quality assurance, software and digitalization, automation and materials handling technology through to related peripherals are thematically arranged on the 120,000 square meters of exhibition space at Messe Stuttgart, a one-day visit to AMB will be possible.
A special highlight will be the presentation of the AMB Award which acknowledges the creativity and engineering skills of the exhibitors. The independent jury will present the AMB Award for new and improved developments which provide significant added value to the industry.
The accompanying program of AMB 2024 will provide numerous opportunities for conversation and networking. Those interested can find interesting information about the additional program on the official AMB website under the "Program" tab.
Visit to AMB: plan and efficiently experience the exhibition
From the end of May onwards, around three and a half months before the start of the 21st AMB, visitors will be able to plan their attendance at the exhibition with the help of the exhibitor directory on the exhibition website. In conjunction with the new AMB app (also available from the end of May under AMB Stuttgart in the app store for Android and iOS), visitors will be able, for example, to compile their personal daily program and mark highlights. They will therefore not miss anything and will be well-informed.
Travel to the Stuttgart Trade Fair Center can also be planned efficiently. Using the event ticket of German Railways, you can travel inexpensively to Stuttgart Main Station and from there to Messe Stuttgart in the most sustainable way on the public transport network (VVS) with the local transport ticket included in the day ticket for the exhibition. Travel to AMB in the morning and return home in the evening — by train, by air or in your car.
Why it will be worthwhile to be there
Sebastian Schmid is filled with enthusiasm about the role of AMB: "As the leading event in even years, AMB enjoys an excellent reputation and is one of the leading technical exhibitions for metal working - a key to markets. It fills us with pride to stage this important event in Stuttgart and offer the industry in September a platform with such a unique reach and quality. You simply have to be there! Help us shape the further development of the metal working industry."
