EMO Hannover 2025 will showcase the latest in automation, AI, and sustainable metalworking from September 22 to 26, offering future-ready solutions for global manufacturers.

EMO Hannover 2025, the world’s biggest production technology trade expo, will return from September 22 to 26, showcasing cutting-edge developments in automation, collaborative robots, 3D printing, and AI-powered process chains. As metalworking advances rapidly, the event will assist industry professionals in evaluating and implementing the most appropriate technology for long-term growth.

Dr. Markus Heering, Executive Director of VDW (German Machine Tool Builders’ Association), stated, “EMO is more than just a tradeshow. It is a unique international platform for dialogue between manufacturers and users. The show will include international exhibitors, expert-led forums, and focus zones on the major topics driving industry transformation.”

Empowering Industry Transformation
Companies worldwide are under pressure to modernise in response to rising prices, tougher emissions objectives, and increased global competition. EMO Hannover will exhibit solutions for advanced industries like aerospace, medical technology, and renewable energy, which require greater precision, productivity, and material innovation.

As factories struggle to find trained personnel, digital technologies and AI become increasingly important. EMO will assist decision-makers in reducing investment risks by demonstrating solutions that have been proven to boost efficiency and offer new business opportunities.

Focus on Automation and Sustainability
The programme will emphasise automation as a critical facilitator of both series and single-piece production. The Cobot Area will demonstrate how collaborative robots may help create efficient, adaptable systems.

Bertram Kawlath, President of the German Engineering Federation (VDMA), stated, “Mechanical engineering is an enabler of climate-friendly transformation. The sustainability area will include technology that cuts energy use while using renewable resources and circular economy ideas.

Digitalisation and Predictive Intelligence
With the increasing integration of IoT and AI, digital process chains improve transparency and enable predictive maintenance. EMO will feature innovative technology that assists manufacturers in increasing uptime and reducing operational hazards.
