Control 2022 gets ready for takeoff

As the leading trade fair for measurement technology, Control, the international trade fair for quality assurance (QA), has been an ideal forum for personal contact and business exchange for decades. "The high demand for personal trade fair participation has been unbroken for months on the part of the QA industry", confirms project manager Fabian Krüger from trade fair promoter P. E. Schall GmbH & Co. KG. "All over the world, the industry values Control as an indispensable platform, and is especially anticipating this year's live trade fair after a forced break of two years," says Krüger. "Particularly in these weeks and months, when uncertainty again prevails due to the pandemic, many companies see Control at the beginning of May as a must-attend event," says the project manager, recalling the successful, smooth execution of the attendance trade shows last fall.

QA has never been as important as it is at present

The need for expert discussion on new developments in the QA industry is huge. Many companies are currently introducing enhanced or entirely new QA systems - driven by increasing automation and digitization, more contactless processes, remote services, small batch sizes and zero-defect manufacturing. The need for quality verification of any process, including data analysis and end-to-end traceability, now affects almost all industries from both industrial and service environments. "QA solutions have never been as significant as they are at present," the Control project manager points out. Solutions and systems in measuring and testing technology, materials testing, analysis equipment, vision technology, image processing, sensor technology, and weighing and counting technology have undergone significant further development over the past two years and will find a highly interested trade audience at Control 2022.

High proportion of foreign exhibitors at Control 2022

And the trade public seems to be just waiting to finally be able to visit a trade fair live again. According to project manager Fabian Krüger, visitors have been asking for tickets for months before the trade fair. "Exhibitors and trade visitors want to finally exchange information about QS innovations in person, because a lot has happened in recent months." The fact that Control is still regarded as the world's leading trade fair for QS is reflected in the high proportion of foreign exhibitors: around 35 percent come from outside Germany, including Switzerland. Progress in automation, digitalization, contactless processes, remote services and end-to-end traceability affects all industries, including service sectors. Testing technology users utilize various QA solutions inline in networked processes - including contactless. The Fraunhofer Vision Alliance's special show "Non-contact measurement technology", which is being held for the 17th time at Control 2022, will explore this in greater depth. It will showcase a cross-section of innovative technologies from the field of non-contact measurement and testing technology in Hall 6. More information: https://www.control-messe.de/
