The 17th EuroMold, World Fair for Moldmaking and Tooling, Design and
Application Development, will take place Dec 1 – 4, 2010, in
Frankfurt, Germany. The show expects about 1,500 exhibitors from 45
countries and approximately 60,000 trade visitors. With the host
country Turkey and many innovative special feature shows, EuroMold
once again will present several highlights and further extend its
position as the leading international trade fair for product
development.
Within an area 75,000 m² EuroMold will present the latest trends in
all sectors of product development in halls 8, 9 and 11, as well as
in the Galleria. At EuroMold 2010 Turkey will be the partner
country, a mostly dynamic emerging market which provides great
opportunities for the sector of moldmaking and tooling. Further
highlights at EuroMold 2010 will be the special feature shows
“Energy Efficiency and Moldmaking” and “e-Production for everyone”
as well as top-class conferences, forums and workshops.
The unique EuroMold fairs concept “From Idea to Prototype to Series
Production” clearly illustrates the entire process chain. Here all
parties involved in product development will be united – from
designers, to moldmakers, machine tool producers, subcontractors to
users. Core areas at EuroMold are of course moldmaking and tooling
as well as Rapid Prototyping, pattern making and prototypes,
CAD/CAM, simulation/VR, machine tools and tools, engineering
and
design.
As of July 1, EuroMold has increased the number of international
exhibitors, including those from South Korea (+66.7% compared to
same period of previous year), Turkey (60.0%), UK (+55.6%), Spain
(+16.7%) and France (+10.5%).
At EuroMold, 23.9% of all exhibitors are in the field of ‘Moldmaking
and Tooling’. Hence, this is the most represented sector of EuroMold
followed by ‘Rapid Prototyping and Tooling’ (9.9%). The third
biggest area is ‘Simulation + VR’ with 8.9% (an increase from 5.9%
compared to 2009). 5.8% of all exhibitors that have signed up so far
are active in the field of ‘Design’, a growth of 38.1% compared
to 2009.
Turkey is one of the fastest growing emerging
markets and has already achieved a very important position within
the scope of automotive and electronic industry. Hence, the country
offers great opportunities for mold- and toolmakers.
