Once again, participation in Blechexpo in Stuttgart from 21st to 24th October proved to be a complete success. The middle days of the trade fair were particularly busy, and the IMO stand was well attended throughout. There was clearly a great deal of interest in the services and solutions on offer.

On the third day of the fair, our trainees visited the fair in Stuttgart together with their trainers. They had prepared for the visit in advance with the help of a questionnaire and were able to clarify any open questions on site and gather many exciting impressions.

As part of the Blechexpo Forum on the Friday of the fair, Armin Müller, strategic project manager at IMO, had the opportunity to give a presentation on the topic of ‘Fundamentals of functional electroplating’. In front of numerous interested trade visitors, he explained the central principles of electroplating processes and highlighted the role these technologies play in modern sheet metal processing.

Overall, we can draw a thoroughly positive conclusion: Blechexpo once again proved to be an important platform for maintaining contacts and networks within the industry.
