With its unique concept, the SPS covers the entire spectrum of smart and digital automation – from simple sensors to intelligent solutions, from what is feasible today to the vision of a fully digitalized industrial world.
The SPS is the highlight event of the automation industry. It is a source of inspiration and a platform for innovation.
Experts on site will present the following topics:
Space is also allocated to exhibitors on the SPS site plan based on these main topics.
The highly-qualified visitors come to the exhibition with specific problems. During intensive discussions at the stands, they can compare solutions from different manufacturers to find the perfect solution for the automation tasks in their companies.
The visitors represent a range of industries, including the following:
In addition, two thirds of the visitors work in the fields of construction, management, and production.
The reunion of the automation community at the SPS 2022 was a full success - this was not only shown by the unique feeling at the event on site, but also by the evaluation of the figures. 43,813 visitors informed themselves about product innovations and solutions of the industry at 999 exhibitors on a total area of 112,000 sqm.
The SPS covers the entire spectrum of smart and digital automation. Discover the exciting world of automation!
Electric drive technology deals with systems for generating motion or energy by power transmission. This field covers drives as well as the power supply for plant and machinery and the control of various drive components.
The mechanical infrastructure comprises the mechanical components in automation technology. This includes industrial cables, which are of central importance for energy and data transmission, as well as control cabinets, which contain the electrical and electronic components of a system or production facility.
Sensor technology refers to the use of sensors to measure physical or chemical properties. A sensor is a technical component that qualitatively or quantitatively records the properties or condition of its environment. Sensors also include intelligent optical systems that collect data that is then evaluated using algorithms.
Control technology is the development and implementation of controls that change the way in which a system operates. It covers changing the way technical systems, such as machines, plant and equipment, function in a targeted manner. The change is achieved by means of information, messages or new input.
Digitalization places new demands on manufacturing processes and their control in the field of industrial automation. Software and IT in production therefore covers software and IT solutions for automated manufacturing processes up to the management level.
Interface technology is the transition point between different components of a system that enables data exchange or data processing to be put into effect. These can be human-computer interfaces as well as computer-computer interfaces. The speed with which the data is transmitted is strongly dependent on the interface technology used.
Visualize. Operate. Notify. Inform This takes place in the form of indicator, operating and display panels and input devices such as keyboards, joysticks or touchscreens This field also includes push-buttons, such as emergency-stop buttons or other switches, as well as signaling devices that display the machine’s status with the aid of colored lights.
Industrial communication is the transmission of information and data using networks that can be wired or wireless. This technology is mainly used in the areas of manufacturing and process automation and is becoming increasingly more important with the growing trend for networking.
Your advantages as an exhibitor:
With its unique concept, the SPS covers the entire spectrum of smart and digital automation. The focus is on practical solutions for all areas of work, no matter how specific. At the SPS, you will find answers to your current questions as well as solutions for the challenges of tomorrow.
The restart of the SPS in 2022 was a huge success. Around 1,000 exhibitors provided information on the latest trends and developments in the automation industry on 112,000 sqm of exhibition space.
Regardless of whether the SPS has been a set date in your calendar for years or you will visit the automation hotspot in Nuremberg for the first time this year: This page offers you all the information you need for your visit to the exhibition.
