In modern woodworking, the type of technology used is more about what’s needed to get the job done than about the size or scale of the user’s operation. Visitors to LIGNA 2017 (May 22 to 26) will get a close-up view of the innovations that are driving this trend. A new hall layout plan will make the fair easier to navigate than ever before.
In the timber and woodworking sector, achieving maximum efficiency and productivity used to be the exclusive preserve of large industrial-scale operations with the clout to invest in CNC, full optimization and integrated production systems. However, thanks to technology transfer and innovation, these technologies have been accessible to a much wider group of companies for some time. Even highly specialized joinery, cabinetmaking and carpentry operations are increasingly opting for digitalized production solutions to boost their competitiveness and achieve industrial-scale clout. And they have a wide range of solutions to choose from, thanks to technology providers’ successful efforts to broaden their market base by smoothing out the distinctions between industry and trade.
With its new hall layout plan, this year’s LIGNA will reflect this important trend. The Tools and Machinery for Custom and Mass Production display category, for instance, will feature the full range of solutions for companies of all sizes at one convenient location.
At the heart of the show in 2017 there is intelligent concept for integrated manufacturing – across all process steps.
