After a successful trade fair premiere in 2015, more than half of the exhibitors who participated at the first Deburring Expo have already booked booth floor space for the next event - including lots of industry "heavyweights." And thus growth is already becoming apparent for the second trade fair for deburring technology and precision surface finishing, which will take place at the Exhibition Centre Karlsruhe (Germany) from the 10th through the 12th of October, 2017.

After receiving 108 exhibitors and 2038 expert visitors from 31 countries at their 2015 show, Hartmut Herdin, managing director of trade fair promoters fairXperts GmbH & Co. KG, announced in February - 20 months before the next show - that more than 50 percent of the initial exhibitors have already booked booth floor space for the next event in 2017. "This strong demand for booth floor space well in advance of the event has even surprised us a bit, and of course we're quite pleased. But it also confirms that suppliers of products, processes and services for deburring and precision surface finishing already feel at home with Deburring Expo after just one event," explains Hartmut Herdin.

This is illustrated by the words of Günter Gölz, managing director of Benseler Entgratungen GmbH: "A trade fair like Deburring Expo was really long overdue. There's tremendous interest on the part of the expert visitors, and lots of them brought sample parts for which they were seeking solutions. The visitors know what they're looking for, want problem-oriented advice and aren't just interested in finding out what's available on the market. The feedback was great and we're happy that the next trade fair has already been scheduled."

In addition to numerous initial exhibitors, various new companies have also already decided in favor of participating at the next trade fair for deburring technology and precision surface finishing. The exhibitor list is already brimming with renowned enterprises, which a glance at the trade fair website confirms (www.deburring-expo.com).

Deburring Expo's exhibition portfolio is focused on products, systems, processes and services for deburring and rounding, as well as precision surface finishing for components made of nearly all materials from all industry sectors. The fields of training and technical literature are represented at the event as well.
