All involved parties are eagerly awaiting new impetus from the world\u2019s leading trade fair for the injection moulding industry. With great innovative strength and dynamics, combined with a practice-oriented trade fair format, the premium event for the fields of extrusion technology, thermoforming and 3D printing will focus above all on circular economy. The entire industry has saved the trade fair dates from the 17th through the 21st of October, 2023![\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”119075″]Fakuma is regarded around the world as the leading trade fair highlight in the field of injection moulding. It\u2019s the industry and technology barometer in the fields of extrusion technology, thermoforming and 3D printing, and this year\u2019s event will once again focus on the issues of digitalisation, process automation and energy efficiency. \u201cAbove all for our industry sectors, circular economy and sustainability are not just buzzwords,\u201d notes Annemarie Schur, Fakuma project manager at trade fair promoters P. E. Schall. \u201cIt has become plainly apparent that manufacturers and users are focusing on making plastics production and processing as sustainable as possible. Companies are concentrating on top-quality, durable high-tech solutions which are used in a broad range of industries where they\u2019re indispensable, for example in solar modules, e-mobility, construction and technical components, as well as in the consumer and furnishing sectors. None of it can be done without plastics,\u201d points out the project manager. \u201cFakuma will once again demonstrate that the highly complex subject of plastics can be incorporated into climate protection and circular economy, and that it\u2019s forward-looking in a very special way.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_size=”h4″ uncode_shortcode_id=”197568″]Success Factors: Practical Relevance, Focus and Continuity[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”556482″]Energy efficiency, sustainability, recyclable design and AI-based solutions will be addressed extensively at the trade fair. Another important objective of Fakuma involves the presentation of plastics processing in the intelligently networked factory of tomorrow. \u201cThe event is distinguished by its high levels of practical relevance,\u201d stresses Nicolai K\u00fcls, managing director of technotrans solutions GmbH. \u201cTechnological trends and their implementation in series production are frequently exhibited at Fakuma. This is an important argument for an innovative, applications-oriented company like technotrans.<\/p>\n

In our opinion, practical relevance, focus and continuity are also key ingredients in the recipe for future success.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs important megatrends, climate protection and society\u2019s growing environmental awareness, constantly changing legal requirements such as specifying the use of less environmentally harmful refrigerants for process cooling in the future and e-mobility will ensure that energy efficiency will continue to be a driving factor in product development in the future,\u201d affirms Nicolai K\u00fcls. \u201cMoreover, intelligent interaction between machines, tools and peripheral technology \u2013 especially in the field of thermal process management \u2013 still offers lots of potential for savings.\u201d
\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_size=”h4″ uncode_shortcode_id=”163913″]Future Issues: Processes, Products and Business Models[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”148953″]Countless sustainable solutions and products are simply not possible without plastics. The significance of plastics, their importance for everyday life and future demands will be on the agenda at Fakuma. As a result, the trade fair is the ideal platform for the presentation of new products and technological solutions, and for expert discussions regarding current and future challenges. Advanced machines, optimised processes, new products and forward-looking business models will also be in focus.<\/p>\n

\u201cFakuma 2023, with its practice-oriented format and informal atmosphere, will once again be an exciting and essential milestone for discussing solutions to the demanding tasks currently faced by the industry sector,\u201d emphasises Annemarie Schur. \u201cFakuma has long since established itself as a meeting place for an international expert audience. We expect that more than 40% of the exhibitors will come from outside of Germany again in 2023. The high levels of internationalism, the intrinsic quality of the expert discussions and, of course, the exciting subject of plastics with its relevance for the future make Fakuma a unique business meet \u2013 not least of all for maintaining customer relations, acquiring new customers and for an exchange of ideas with business partners, students and institutes. The exhibitor forum with world-class expert presentations will also deliver inspiring impetus for all relevant topics.\u201d
