Conferences & Exhibitions

ICALEO brings together the leaders and experts in the field of laser material interaction, providing a platform for sharing new ideas and discovering solutions

The entire process chain of the tube industry will be presented at Tube 2020

LEF is the industry meeting point for representatives from business and science. For the 23rd time in 2020, the latest trends and developments related to the topic of laser micromachining will be presented in Fürth and discussed with regard to their application for various fields of application. 

LEF 2020 will focus on the following topics:

The annual US photonics show will have plenty on offer for industrial laser users from 1 to 6 February

Following a successful premiere in 2019, the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology ILT will kick off the second Laser Symposium on Electromobility – LSE’20 – in Aachen on February 12, 2020. The two-day event will focus on high-efficiency laser techniques for every step in the process chain for producing batteries and electric vehicles. One of the main highlights will be a presentation from Swiss company E-Force One AG on the electrification of heavy-duty transportation.

In laser technology, machine and sensor data are used to monitor a production process. The ever-advancing transformation of production environments in Industry 4.0 and the cyber-physical systems enables these processes to be analyzed in a simpler, more reliable and synergetic manner in the future.

MTC3 will explore the many benefits of additive manufacturing, whether the technology is being industrialised, and what can be done to speed up this industrialisation.

The practical trade fair duo of Blechexpo and Schweisstec takes place on a two-year cycle in the state trade fair centre in Stuttgart and is the only event in the world that deals with the complementary technologies of sheet metal processing and joining technology. Within the shortest timeframe, Blechexpo has been able to gain a leading position in Europe and now ranks second in the world on the list of trade fairs for sheet metal processing. The Schweisstec international specialist trade fair for joining technology forms the ideal complement.
