At the CNC Outlet Center Olching, machine operators, CNC programmers and managers meet manufacturers of machine tools, digitalization solutions and accessories. Selected specialist presentations will impart knowledge on automation and software solutions, control systems, tools and peripheral devices.

Over three days, hundreds of registered visitors will attend the regional trade fair, which has developed from an insider tip to an industry event in just a few years. "We are again expecting visitor numbers to grow by 30 percent," says Holger Kösler, initiator of the metalworking trade fair. "Unfortunately, we were unable to accommodate all exhibitor requests due to the high demand." The intensive dialog between experts, directly at the exhibits, in the conference center or relaxed in the beer garden, sets the Metalworking Trade Exhibition apart from purely promotional events.

Exhibitors such as AXON, Baublys, Burkhardt+Weber, CHIRON Group, EMAG, Geibel+Hotz, Index, Klaeger, Kunzmann, Mazak, Primacon, ROMI, Tornos, Weiler and WSF/SMEC will be providing information directly at the demonstration machine under power.

In between, other exhibitors will be presenting automation and robot solutions, industrial software, tool and clamping systems and all kinds of peripheral devices for machine tools. "Technical discussions between suppliers and users are becoming increasingly rare and therefore more valuable," says René Schmidt, Managing Director of the CNC Outlet Center. "With our concept, we focus on practical relevance and intensive information." This is demonstrated by a lecture program that offers excellent opportunities to delve deeper into current machining topics. Automation, CNC programming, digitalization and artificial intelligence are just as much a part of the topics as robot programming, countersinking, tool management or measuring and testing technology. "All topics are presented with practical relevance. In this way, the exhibition and lecture program complement each other with open spaces for dialogue," says Holger Kösler.

To mark the European Football Championship, this year's open spaces include a goal wall shoot-out. The traditional beer garden and an alpine hut with Bavarian delicacies make it easier to get to know each other and have light-hearted industry discussions. Visiting FaMeta is free of charge after registering at www.fameta.de.

Numerous visitors and an international audience

Since 2013, the CNC Outlet Center GmbH in Olching has been providing manufacturers and suppliers of machine tools and accessories with a globally unique presentation platform for CNC machines. Following the further expansion of the hall in September 2017, up to 100 new and used machine tools, accessories and peripherals are now offered ready for demonstration and manufacturer-independent on 3,700 m² of demonstration and storage space.

A wide range of events, seminars and workshops attracts numerous visitors and an international audience to the "World of Machine Tools". Since 2020, the new CNC Outlet Marketplace has been offering manufacturers another attractive cooperation opportunity to reduce stocks more quickly, particularly in economically weaker phases.
