Tech Industry 2025 will showcase major global manufacturing and technological innovations
Tech Industry 2025 international mechanical engineering, metalworking, automation, electrical engineering, electronics, manufacturing material, instrument and new technology trade fair will take place at the Ķīpsala International Expo Centre on 27–29 November. Manufacturers from around the world will showcase their latest equipment, instruments and technologies. This is your chance to see research and industry innovations all in one place.
Tech Industry is the most significant and largest industry event in the Baltics. This year’s fair will bring together more than 270 companies from at least 25 countries, including Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Germany, Poland, Czechia, Austria, Italy, France, the Netherlands, Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Slovenia, Slovakia, Spain, Switzerland, Japan, USA, Israel, Ukraine, Hungary, China and other countries. It is expected that Tech Industry 2025 will attract more than 21,000 professionals from various sectors and regions of the globe.
For three days, leading European and global equipment manufacturers will demonstrate how to operate the most advanced their latest metalworking and industrial machines, mechanical engineering equipment and materials, welding equipment, power tools, airflow and hydro technologies, steel products, production equipment and materials, service support, automated and control systems, hydraulic equipment, measuring devices, electronics and electrical devices, robots, robot-assisted equipment, gas supply systems, warehouse tools, packaging and materials, loading and unloading devices, and other devices, materials and technologies.
Latvia, Czechia, Finland and Ukraine will have their national stands at the Tech Industry 2025, offering broader information about the latest products and innovations from their national industry.
Innovation-based future manufacturing
Tech Industry 2025 will provide access to technologies that are transforming manufacturing competitiveness globally. Artificial intelligence (AI) is facilitating an industry shift from hardware to smart hardware – from streamlined production lines to devices that are capable of forecasting failures and ensuring more reliable, faster production processes. These global trends are also strongly reflected in the exhibitor displays: automation and robotics for plant updating, AI and machine vision for quality and process assurance, energy efficiency and resource management solutions, and digital transformation – from paperless manufacturing to smart data analytics tools.
Trade fair is focused on three current global industry trends: smart automation, green production technologies and new generation of high-precision equipment.
Robots are gradually becoming mentors that assist people instead of competing. There is a growing demand for “cobots” or collaborative robots, automation solutions for small and medium-size enterprises, soft robotics, instead of only focusing on speed. Trade fair will have new generation robots, vacuum technologies, robotic welding machines and other state-of-the-art automation technologies.
Companies around the world are competing to achieve more energy-efficient devices, lower carbon footprint, practices based on elements of circular economy, re-usable mechanical engineering and production materials. Exhibitors of Tech Industry are no exception. Their products and solutions are a testament to actual greening of the heavy industry. Companies participating in the Tech Industry 2025 will also address other current demands such as data quality, precision and reliability, digital solutions.
Potential of the Latvian producers
National stand of Latvia will showcase the diversity of technologies offered by Latvian companies. The size of the national stand is a real proof of Latvia’s capability to generate competitive, export-worthy engineering products that perform well on the European and international markets. Mechanical engineering and metalworking sector is one of the milestones of national industry. More than 80% of its output goes to export. Latvian national stand will have both advanced manufacturing solutions and tailor-made niche technologies from 34 Latvian companies: AB Metal, ADK, Aerones Engineering, Apply, CNC Saan, Compor, CW Technics, Design Tree, East Metal, Ecoheat Technologies, Energofirma Jauda, Energolukss, Exigum, Filtri, Fonons, Good Steel, KNK Mefab, Latvijas Finieris Iekārtu Rūpnīca, LS Steel, Mechanika Engineering, Peruza, Poliprodest, Printpack Service, Proring Latvia, SFM Latvia, Smartteh, Steel Profi, Tetralia, Toget, Valpro, VRV Trading, Wemps, Zippy Vision, and Riga Technical College, Riga Metalworking College and Valmiera Technical School.
B2B matchmaking event
To promote Latvian exports, on 27-29 November, during the trade fair, stakeholders will also be able to take part in a wide international B2B matchmaking event. If you want to meet and talk business with large variety of international companies, buyers, manufacturers and distributors, this is the place to be.
