SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN 2023

The IndustryFusion Foundation stand: Hall 6 | Stand D22.

Strong partners on one stand, smart technology, a digital competition and a networking solution that will revolutionise production: The IndustryFusion Foundation has a lot to offer at SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN. The foundation is a cooperation partner of the world's leading trade fair and will be presenting the cross-manufacturer open-source networking solution IndustryFusion-X at the fair in Essen.

"Get connected - get digital": This year's SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN, which will take place from 11 to 15 September 2023 at the Messe Essen exhibition centre, will focus on the topics of digitalisation and networking. As a cooperation partner of the two organisers, Messe Essen and DVS (Deutscher Verband für Schweißen und verwandte Verfahren e. V. - German Welding Society), the IndustryFusion Foundation is helping to shape the world's largest showcase of the joining, cutting and coating industry.

For example, the foundation is presenting the cross-manufacturer open-source networking solution IndustryFusion-X: This innovative system will increase value creation in the manufacturing industry, boost productivity and make production processes in or between companies much more efficient. "IndustryFusion-X is the basis and the central system so that factory operators can network their production, machines and plant manufacturers can digitalise their products and providers of digital services can offer their services via a standardised platform," says Igor Mikulina, President of the Board of the IndustryFusion Foundation.
