Because the industry is changing rapidly the requirements made on trade fairs is also changing. DeburringEXPO will therefore no longer take place as an independent event, but will be incorporated into the new trade fair called Parts Finishing, taking place for the first time next year on Nov. 12 – 13, 2025. The new two-day event will combine the subjects of deburring technologies, component cleaning and surface finishing and will be held at the exhibition center of Karlsruhe, Germany.

Megatrends such as the mobility and energy transition, demographic changes and digitalization pose new challenges for the economy and society, but also present opportunities. They demand new products and adapted manufacturing strategies of the manufacturers and companies far down the supply chain. These changes are not failing to have an effect on the trade fair landscape.

“After numerous discussions with companies that exhibited at DeburringEXPO and having closely observed the development of various trade fairs, we have reached the decision no longer to hold the trade fair for deburring technologies as an independent event,” explains Hartmut Herdin, managing director of the private trade fair organizer, fairXperts GmbH & Co. KG.

The surface finishing area at the show will include the process steps of fine and ultra-fine grinding, polishing, honing, lapping, vibratory grinding, blasting and brushing.

The market has reacted favorably to this concept, and the trade fair organizer has already received bookings from manufacturers. The event will subsequently continue to take place in uneven years.

“More and more companies are questioning the cost-benefit ratio of exhibiting at a traditional trade fair,” Herdin says. “In order to present machines at a stand, a great deal of space is required, which incurs a lot of expense. These days, however, there are also very good ways to present efficient performance and expertise digitally.”

These aspects were taken into account in the trade fair concept for Parts Finishing. First, the concept makes it possible for people who are responsible for parts production to obtain concise information about solutions, and it facilitates a dialogue between users and exhibitors in the cross-process development of solutions for special applications.

Second, the length of the trade fair being reduced to two days means less costs incurred for journeys, accommodation and staff. “This aspect is facilitated by high-quality, turn-key, customizable stand packages that are available at fixed costs and save time, money and resources right from the early stages of preparing the trade fair,” adds the trade fair organizer.

The Parts Finishing concept thus concentrates on the very purpose of trade fairs: to help establish and maintain contacts between users and offerors and build and intensify networks among exhibitors.

“The latter makes it possible to form strategic partnerships and to jointly approach new projects as a systems supplier,” Herdin says.
