About Motek - International Exhibition for Assembly and Handling Technology
The international trade fair Motek is the world’s leading event in the fields of production and assembly automation, feed technology and material flow, streamlining through handling technology, and industrial handling. As such, Motek is the only trade fair to clearly focus on all aspects of mechanical engineering and automation and on the presentation of entire process chains.
The consistent target-group orientation is one of Motek’s secrets of success. Focal target groups include automotive, machinery and equipment manufacturing, the electrical and electronics industries, medical engineering and solar production, as well as metal and plastic processing companies in general and their suppliers.
Every year in the Stuttgart exhibition centre, in an exhibition area of 60,000 square feet, over 1,000 exhibitors meet with an international public of around 35,000 specialist visitors, who travel from nearly 100 countries around the world. Every fifth Motek visitor comes from abroad. The competent specialist public largely comprises decision makers and staff involved with decisions. Many visitors come to the trade fair with specific questions and requirements.
Together with the concurrent BONDexpo international trade fair for bonding technology as well as the Microsys technology park for micro and nanotechnology, Motek constitutes a powerful trade fair group, which provides an ideal platform for the future issues of the industry. The comprehensive provision is completed with a top-class supporting programme dedicated to the very latest issues.
