A must-visit event for machine builders

Organised by The Engineering Network (TEN), the tag line for MachineBuilding.Live is "one day, all the answers". The format of MachineBuilding.Live is unique and has been designed by engineers for engineers. It is a compact event that allows visitors to see everyone and everything in the minimum amount of time.

What that means is that this is an event where you can get the maximum return on your time investment: get different viewpoints on specific issues, uncover new ideas for your business, discover new products and services, evaluate a range of different solutions, and keep yourself ahead of the curve.

And there is no shortage of technologies to see: the exhibitors estimate that, between them, they'll have over 1,000 new products on their stands for machine builders and systems integrators to discover and discuss on the day, with many of them being shown in the UK for the very first time.

That's crucial because today, more than ever, machine builders face the challenge not simply of keeping up with trends, but with helping to shape those trends or innovating with them if they are to keep being successful. And there is no substitute for face-to-face conversations with like-minded professionals, sharing ideas and experiences, and exploring industry challenges together.

Accompanying the packed exhibition floor is a top-quality workshop programme, with presentations from SICK, Pilz, B&R, Beckhoff, igus, Lenze, Festo and Omron exploring today's most pressing automation and safety concerns. The workshops will cover a wide range of topics, including: mechatronics - the integration of automation, robots and software technologies; how to implement predictive maintenance with AI; industrial security as a key element of new Machinery Regulation; and how AI brings IO-Link to life.

Because each presenter is at the leading edge of developments in their sector, visitors attending these sessions have the opportunity to capture a useful edge on their competitors.

Another key feature of MachineBuilding.Live is the Action Areas: as a result of their popularity at the 2024 event, the number of Action Areas at MachineBuilding.Live 2025 has been increased. On these special stands, leading experts from across the machine building and factory automation spectrum will be providing live demonstrations of their latest technologies and innovations. Many of them will be making their UK debut at this event. Seeing is believing when it comes to the speed, precision and repeatability you will witness.

Now in its third year, the 2025 MachineBuilding.Live builds on the tremendous success of the previous events where visitors established or reinforced contacts with suppliers, and got real business done.

It's also important to note that MachineBuilding.Live is co-located with FoodManufacturing.Live, so machine builders and systems integrators who address the food and beverage sector within their remit will doubly benefit from discovering the latest innovations, new products and suppliers that will help in the development of machines that will drive down food manufacturing costs, improve productivity and enhance bottom line profitability.

Registration is now open for both these events, where technical innovation meets practical application. Discover the latest technologies transforming machine design, integration, automation and control - all under one roof.
