Twelve exhibitors travelled to the event from China, nine from the USA, eight from France and seven from the UK.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_size=&#8221;h4&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;865674&#8243;]Many Enthusiastic Voices Emphasise the Importance of the Trade Fair[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;869365&#8243;]It became plainly apparent right from the outset just how important face-to-face technical discussions can be \u2013 they can\u2019t be replaced by any other form of communication. This was confirmed by numerous enthusiastic voices. \u201cWe\u2019re always eager to participate at Optatec in Frankfurt in order to present new products and meet up with customers and partners,\u201d said Dr. Christoph Seibel from Hamamatsu Photonics Germany. \u201cIt\u2019s important to be on hand and offline \u2013 it\u2019s indispensable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled \u2013 great event, interesting discussions,\u201d said Axel Haunholter from Optosigma Europe SAS in Munich in summing up his company\u2019s second appearance at Optatec. And he added that Optatec is the right trade fair for anyone interested in optics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve been exhibiting at Optatec from the very beginning,\u201d affirmed Holger B\u00e4uerle, vice managing director of CeramOptec GmbH in Bonn, Germany. \u201cWe\u2019re able to present our fibre optic products for the medical and industrial sectors on a customised basis at the event. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important for us to engage in discussion with our customers here at Optatec.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOptatec is the right trade fair for us with regard to the target groups we meet up with,\u201d confirmed Oliver Wojtala from technical consulting and sales at Matzdorf GmbH in Nuremberg.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOptatec is very important for us,\u201d noted Professor Matthias Will from the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences. \u201cIt\u2019s the link from the universities to the optics industry.\u201d For Will it\u2019s a matter of attracting young talent and students to the subject of photonics, which is why he and his team took school groups on a tour of the trade fair. \u201cThis makes an especially strong impression.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cFor us, Optatec is the world\u2019s leading trade fair in the field of optics manufacturing technology,\u201d stressed Matthias Pfaff of OptoTech Optikmaschinen GmbH in Wettenberg, Germany. \u201cThe whole world comes to Frankfurt to find out about new technologies, new processes and new machines. This is where the community gets together and exchanges ideas and experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr J\u00fcrgen Bode of Satisloh GmbH, the world\u2019s leading company for eyeglass and precision optics, was very pleased with the high levels of visitor interest in, amongst other things, the new coating machine introduced by the company as a trade fair highlight this year.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_size=&#8221;h4&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;112816&#8243;]Optotechnology and Image Processing as Issues of the Future[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;132945&#8243;]The topics covered by Optatec are steadily gaining in importance in all industrial and non-industrial sectors. Optical technologies are being driven by ever-stricter quality requirements, as well as by expanding use of automation and digitalisation. \u201cOptatec 2022 has once again demonstrated the extent to which the optical technologies have advanced, and just how indispensable they are for numerous facets of life,\u201d sums up project manager Fabian Kr\u00fcger from trade fair promoters P. E. Schall. \u201cAfter the trade fair had to be postponed several times and was at last being eagerly anticipated by the industry, these three days have once again underscored the global significance of the event,\u201d says Kr\u00fcger with great satisfaction.<\/p>\n<p>Nowhere else do international experts, manufacturers and users of optotechnology and image processing meet in such a focused manner as at Optatec. As a result, production and quality assurance managers, as well as system integrators, hold Optatec in high esteem as a key trade fair for the optotechnology and image processing sector. Exhibitors and visitors benefit from its thematic exclusivity, its high degree of technical orientation and its precise targeting of specific groups. With their proven, practice-oriented concept, the trade fair promoters ensure direct, pragmatic user benefits and provide feasible solution options for practical, operational implementation. \u201cAfter Optatec is before Optatec,\u201d says project manager Kr\u00fcger, who is looking forward to the next international trade fair for optical technologies, components and systems, which will be held in Frankfurt in two years, namely in May\/June 2024.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;720561&#8243;]<em>Further information: <\/em><a style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, &#039;Segoe UI&#039;, Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, &#039;Helvetica Neue&#039;, sans-serif;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.Optatec-Messe.de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>www.Optatec-Messe.de<\/em><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;122938&#8243;]<em>Keep yourself well informed!<\/em><br \/>\nFollow us on LinkedIn: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/optatec-messe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/optatec-messe\/<\/em><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;671630&#8243;]<em>Subscribe to the newsletter: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schall-messen.de\/en\/services\/news-service\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.schall-messen.de\/en\/services\/news-service\/<\/a><\/em>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_size=&#8221;h3&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;563785&#8243;]<em>60 Years of Trade Fairs for Markets \u2013 Schall Trade Fairs\u2019 Recipe for Success<\/em>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;277142&#8243;]Schall has developed successful business platforms with internationally recognised trade fairs for quality assurance (Control), optical technologies, components and systems (Optatec), stamping technology (Stanztec), automation in production and assembly (Motek), bonding technology (Bondexpo), plastics processing (Fakuma), sheet metal working (Blechexpo) and joining technology (Schweisstec).
