Why this theme

MECSPE announces 3–5 March 2027 in Bologna, with automation, robotics, digital factories and logistics among its themes.

01 / Questions to resolve

Priorities for this visit

  • A production upgrade is needed, but the bottleneck is not yet clear.
  • Similar specifications can conceal differences in integration, maintenance and site conditions.

02 / Relevant conversations

Potential contacts

  • Packaging, logistics and automation exhibitors

  • Machinery builders and integrators accepting appointments

  • Technical contacts for controls, testing and maintenance

Visits and meetings depend on the host’s appointment confirmation.
