EIMA International: boom for components
The number of exhibitors set to arrive for EIMA Components, the specialized
salon within the great agricultural mechanization exposition in Bologna, is
approaching 800. Manufacturers from all parts of the world are preparing for
the event to put on offer increasingly efficient technologies capable of applying
decisive innovations for machinery and equipment for farming and rural lands.
The salon focused on components, EIMA Components, is looking forward to a
record-breaking edition. The specialized salon – a part of the EIMA International
agricultural mechanization exposition scheduled for November 12 to 16 in the
Bologna Trade Fair center – has already reached an all-time high of over 800
manufacturing industries signed up and confirmed ahead of others now put on a
waiting list. The 2012 edition drew 760 manufacturers and in comparison to this
figure, data released by the Events Office of FederUnacoma, the Italian
Agricultural Machinery Manufacturers Federation, responsible for the
organization of EIMA International, indicate a significant increase. This year’s
salon will feature an exposition area of more than 40,000 m², 13% larger than
the space allocated for the 2012 edition. Components will take over Pavilions
15, 18, 18bis and 20 and areas in Pavilions 21, 22, 26 e 29bis for the
presentation of an immense array of mechanical parts, spare parts, accessories
and electronic devices accounting for a total of 353 merchandise categories
brought in by their manufacturers from around the globe. Among the countries
with the largest representations Italy will claim a prestigious role in the
international panorama for the sector alongside those with strong industrial
traditions, including the United States, Germany, France and the United
Kingdom. The salon will also bring together such newly industrialized countries
as China, India and Turkey, all aiming to expand their footprints on international
markets supplying the manufacturing industries as well as for spare parts and
accessories produced directly for end-users.
Massimo Goldoni, president of FederUnacoma, said, “Out of a total of 1,800
exhibiting industries taking part in EIMA International, this means we will have
nearly 800 in the components sector alone and this is an indication of how
important and vital this mechanical engineering sector is and how farsighted it
was to raise the profile of components by dedicating a specialized salon to them
within the great Bologna exposition.” Marco Acerbi, responsible for the
organization of FederUnacoma events, went on to affirm, “Moreover,
components are a a fundamental factor for innovation in the mechanical
engineering sector and the success of EIMA Components confirms the way in
which this review is truly oriented towards innovation and trained on the great
numbers of professional operators interested in everything that can improve the
performance, reliability and safety of machinery and equipment used for farming
and all activities for the maintenance of rural lands.”
