After almost two years of almost exclusively digital encounters, the time has finally come again: the “Formnext” will take place again as a face-to-face event from 16 – 19.11.2021 in Frankfurt. <\/p>\n
“In discussions with the AM community over the past few years, we have once again become aware of the importance of ‘Formnext’. The trade show has a vibrancy and innovative power that are unbeatable. Knowing that with the support of the entire community we can once again create such a creative space where people can exchange ideas in person, have productive conversations over a cup of coffee, touch products and discuss their innovations is just wonderful,” said a delighted Sascha F. Wenzler, Vice President Formnext of Mesago Messe Frankfurt GmbH.<\/p>\n
“Formnext” promises a wide range of highlights. These include top-class lectures by industry experts, presentations from the partner country Italy, as well as innovations in the “Purmundus Challenge” and the start-up “Challenge Pitch-Next” event. Furthermore, the TCT Conference and Stage as well as the special shows of VDMA AG AM and BE-AM (Built Environment) are to be highlighted. ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) is also organizing for the first time an international standards workshop the day before the event. <\/p>\n
Major companies in the industry will also be present at the show this year. Some 450 exhibitors (55% from abroad) have already registered, including 3D Systems, Additive Industries, Addup, Arburg, Autodesk, BigRep, DMG Mori, Dyndrite, EOS, ExOne, Farsoon, Formlabs, GE, Hexagon, HP, Keyence, Markforged, Materialise, Meltio, Nexa 3D, Prima Industrie, Renishaw, Sandvik, Siemens, Stratasys, Trumpf, Voxeljet and XJet.<\/p>\n
Of course, the health and safety of all participants is paramount. Therefore, the protection and hygiene concept developed last year is continuously adapted to the pandemic situation and legal requirements, as the organizer announces on its website. Wider aisles in the halls and additional communication and waiting areas in higher-traffic zones of the show will help maintain the necessary safety distances. A 3G concept will be introduced (Vaccinated, Convalesced, Tested).<\/p>\n
Two weeks later, the physical event from Nov. 30 – Dec. 01, 2021, will be complemented by “Formnext Digital Days.” Given the rapid growth of the AM community and the demand for 3D printed products across all sectors of the industry, allowing those still affected by travel restrictions to participate digitally in the exchange of ideas.
