The declared aim of the trade fair association is to present the entire process chain of cold-forming sheet metal processing and the associated thermal or mechanical cutting, joining and connection technology.

The Exhibitor Forum, which is held on all days of the fair and is free of charge for trade visitors, has been very popular for years. Top-class speakers from exhibiting companies report in alternating lectures on the theory and practice of modern, performance-oriented production and assembly automation.
The spectrum of lectures covers all relevant disciplines, from the suitability of special components for specific requirements to reports on experiences with the use of processes and flexible assembly systems.
