Trade fair
The SPS 2025
From 25 to 27 November 2025, Nuremberg will once again become the center of industrial automation. At SPS - Smart Production Solutions - companies will show how digital technologies and AI are shaping the factory of the future.
Around 1,150 exhibitors will be presenting their solutions for intelligent, networked and increasingly autonomous production at SPS. From control and drive technology, sensor technology and industrial communication to software platforms for data-supported processes, the trade fair spans a comprehensive panorama of modern factory automation.
This year's focus is on the use of artificial intelligence in production technology. Industrial AI is finding its way into production processes, supporting engineering, optimizing quality control and maintenance and enabling adaptive production systems. This makes it the key to efficiency, flexibility and sustainable use of resources.
Topics such as digital twins, security in system architecture and the integration of IT and OT also characterize the trade fair. Guided tours, presentations and practical demonstrations will show how industrial companies can take advantage of technological change. SPS 2025 offers orientation, exchange and impetus for production that is becoming more intelligent, more resilient and more future-proof.
