New Internet of Things Pavilion to unveil latest manufacturing innovations
In recent years, digital transformation has become a business priority for many manufacturers, particularly with the introduction of industrial internet. It is gradually transforming the industry, changing how manufacturers operate from day-to-day. Utilising the latest high-speed 5G wireless transmission technology, industrial internet is capable of unleashing the full potential of future cyber-physical manufacturing systems and enhancing production efficiency. To highlight this revolutionary development, SIAF will debut the Internet of Things Pavilion and help fairgoers uncover the latest industrial internet solutions and innovations available on the market. Some of the confirmed exhibitors for this pavilion include: Guangzhou Robustel, JingQi (Tianjin) Technology, Kunlungk, Schmeral China, Shenzhen Cotytech Technology, Shenzhen Laogou Technology, Shenzhen LR-LINK Electronic, Shanghai Rocksensor Automation, Shenzhen WELLAUTO Technology and others.

To highlight the importance of the latest technological advancements in digital transformation and industrial internet, the International Smart Manufacturing Industry Alliance organised the ‘Smart manufacturing + IoT – Industrial Automation meets IoT seminar’ at SIAF 2020 which acted as a prelude event for exhibitors to showcase their latest findings at the new Internet of Things Pavilion in the upcoming edition. Mr Jixiang Wei, Chief Expert on Cloud Manufacturing from RootCloud, shared his thoughts on the subject matter at the recently concluded fair, praising the effectiveness of SIAF’s trading and concurrent programme platforms after presenting at the aforementioned seminar: “The industry’s development relies on constant innovation and collaborative efforts to move forward and this trading platform effectively encouraged industry conversations. I am also very pleased with the fair’s concurrent programme as it was an excellent and efficient way to network and exchange market insights.”

Similar to last year, various product categories will be arranged into different halls to make navigation for fairgoers more convenient. Hall 13.2 will feature sensors and applications of machine vision as well as industrial internet and smart logistics, while industrial robotic technologies and accessories, pneumatic systems and components as well as intelligent equipment will all be featured in halls 9.2. Halls 10.2 and 11.2 will house advanced electrical systems, connectivity technologies, IPCs and industrial software.
