Barcelona, 23 March 2023 – The latest advances in industrial innovation and automation are changing the way products are manufactured, ranging from mass production to large-scale customisation. The metal fabrication and processing industry is one of the sectors most affected by this transformation, as technology is being used to improve quality, reduce costs and optimise processes.
Today, companies seeking to remain highly competitive must keep abreast of the latest trends in industrial innovation, robotics and automation. These trends are developing at a dizzying pace and it is therefore essential for companies to be aware of them in order to remain relevant in the market.
In this context, and with the aim of compiling the latest developments and innovations for the industry, Easyfairs is launching the first edition of MetalBarcelona and Robomática Barcelona – Part of Advanced Manufacturing Barcelona, to be held on 13 and 14 September in Pavilion 1 Fira de Barcelona – Gran Via exhibition centre.
“Trends in the metal fabrication and processing industry are changing thanks to innovation and automation. At Easyfairs, we are committed to identifying and promoting these trends through events such as MetalBarcelona and Robomatica Barcelona. From additive manufacturing to the implementation of Artificial Intelligence, these trends are fundamental to the competitiveness of companies in an increasingly demanding market. Our aim is to bring together industry leaders, start-ups and technology experts to explore and share the latest developments in these key areas and help drive the growth of the industry as a whole,” says Oscar Barranco, CEO of Easyfairs Iberia.
Trends in the metal industry
Among the trends that are shaping the metal industry, the following stand out:
“In recent years, we have seen a significant increase in the adoption of emerging technologies in the metal industry. From process automation to artificial intelligence, companies are investing in technologies that allow them to be more efficient and competitive in the market. However, it is also important to keep in mind that success depends not only on technology, but also on the ability to constantly adapt and evolve in response to changes in the market and consumer preferences,” concludes Oscar Barranco.
