On Sunday 24 Jan, We visited IMTEX, an international machine tools exhibition which took place in Bangalore International Exhibition Center. This is located at the Junction of Tumkur road and Nice road. Its actually a B2B exhibition.Trully speaking Untill I boarded the bus I was thinking it is an auto expo.I had no idea about it. Govt has arranged special buses, JNnurm buses, at subsidised rate to IMTEX. Good, our govt encourages these shows.
It took place in all 3 halls. I had the best experience there. I was delighted to see robots performing live a feet before me. I actually loved surrounded by those many professionals. Products ranging from small screws to big machineries were exhibited. Live demos were shown.
As soon as I entered 1st hall AMADA was the first exhibit. They were exhibiting VPSS - a simulation based machine which works consuming 20% planning stage and 80% worktime while the usual was 80-20. The beauty is that they showed a live demo, a video presentation and simulation sheets from their Industry.
There were around 300 different firms exhibiting their machine tools, welding machines, etc.
The thing is that we can learn a lot , though not an employee or a mechnanical engineer, by attending these exhibitions.
Its really amazing when you are seeing some 5000+ different machineries at same place provided with pamphlets, demos, videos of their Industries, explanations, dealings, negotiations happening there.
I used to listen to some negotiations pretending as if I am observing some pamphlets.
Stalls of Business newspaper, Karnataka Udyog Mitra (for promoting the business investments in Karnataka ), manufacturing associations of some other countries - Japan, france. were also there.
FrankfurtRhieinMain GmbH International Marketing of the region is the location marketing company of the FrankfurtRhiein region of Germany. I was impressed to see location marketing done there.
I left there being fully satisfied of having a great learning experience.
