3D Printing and Industry 4.0 Fair at Batalha Technology, Innovation and Development. Because the future is now!

3D ADDITIVE EXPO will be the first fair held in Portugal dedicated exclusively to additive manufacturing and 3D printing and promises to surprise the most diverse sectors where it has applications, ranging from the plastics and molds industry, automotive and aerospace engineering, electronics products consumer, medical and dental sectors to jewelery and watchmaking.

In recent years, additive manufacturing has ceased to be seen only as a futuristic production process, with occasional use in prototypes, to be studied and considered by industries in all countries as a true production method. In Portugal, the interest in 3D printing has accompanied the world trend.

“There is a whole world of solutions, research and development around additive manufacturing, commonly known as 3D printing. We want to be with the innovative companies that are at the forefront of this technology. It is in this scenario that we embrace the challenge and move forward with 3D ADDITIVE EXPO ”, says José Frazão, CEO of EXPOSALÃO and promoter of the event.

The digitization of production processes is a reality for all industries. I4.0EXPO - Industry 4.0, automation and robotics fair is the stage for all companies that follow the digital evolution and that present proposals for the optimization of industrial processes. In the information age, in the so-called fourth industrial revolution, I4.0 Expo is an opportunity for all professionals to get in close contact with the companies that supply the market.

With the participation of more than 100 companies, occupying an area of 10 000m2, and with a wide program of parallel activities, expectations are high!

The main players operating in this market are present in order to present the complex and multifaceted universe of additive manufacturing, which includes the equipment and technologies of 3D printers and scanners, the entire range of materials used, from polymers to metals and other materials, as well as at each stage of the process in cutting-edge industrial production to series production.

ICT, automation and robotics companies will also be in force to present their proposals and solutions to the market.
