THE INNOVATIONS-TECHNOLOGIES-MACHINES POLAND FAIR / 6-9 June

As the unparalleled leader in the field of organizing international events and exhibitions, the Poznań International Fair is responsible for setting up space where business and science get together, man and machine cooperate, and any kind of innovation and technology is at hand. This way, various companies taking part in ITM Poland declare they are ready for changes which come with the concept of the fourth industrial revolution, so-called 'Industry 4.0'. By acquainting oneself with the legacy of engineers, testing products which make use of the latest technologies and meeting a variety of experts attending the fair, it is possible to analyze and understand the changes taking place these days. The ITM Poland Fair gives people chances to stay ahead of their competition and build an advantage which will consequently lead to a success. EVENTS

Reindustrialization - a challenge for Polish engineers and entrepreneurs

The 14^th Engineering Forum will be a follow up on the previous editions of the event, which has successfully been carried out by the Polish Federation of Engineering Association (NOT) since 2003.

Reindustrialization has been considered imperative for all member states of the European Union. Similarly, Poland should support the development of various branches of industry and effectively make use of its potential, as indicated in the Sustainable Development Strategy. As a sector which provides employment for most Polish engineers and technicians and a sector where most companies and businesses operate, industry creates the most innovative solutions. It also concentrates the most research and development centers and institutes. The majority of science and technology associations operate and excel their activities within the area of R&D. They are most closely focused on carrying out tasks related to reindustrialization.

MODERNLOG -  THE FAIR FOR LOGISTICS, WAREHOUSING AND TRANSPORT, 6-9 June

MODERNLOG is a tribute to industrial logistics. Modern logistics in correlation with Industry 4.0 results in modern manufacturing companies and companies providing various services. MODERNLOG accompanied by ITM Poland, which is the largest exhibition for the industry sector in Central-Eastern Europe, offers a possibility to present a complete scope of products and possibilities for logistics, transport and warehousing. On top of that, both the events held in the same place at the same time are a one-of-a-kind opportunity to exchange knowledge and experience.

The first edition of MODERNLOG will concentrate on intralogistics, which will be the main point of the event known as “In4Log Industry”. Throughout the four days of the fair we will present visitors with two parallel manufacturing model paths. Both will involve identical areas of work, i.e. storing and picking items and their assembly; however, the work will differ in terms of the assembly line management and the devices capable of supporting all the areas, which are necessary to carry out the work. This way, we will show key differences between LEAN and NO LEAN areas which influence upon the following work parameters: efficiency, transfer speed, the time of carrying out internal supply, faultless completion of items and 5S-based cleanness which stands for having enough space and only such devices in a workpost which are necessary to carry out work in a given moment.

AN ENGINEERING CAREER

Every single year the Innovation-Technologies–Machines ITM Poland Fair is visited by specialists operating in plenty of sectors connected with metal machining and machine production. This year we will pay attention to the potential presented by students and graduates of universities of technology. As they are keen on visiting ITM Poland, we decided to create a platform which will make it possible for entrepreneurs to search for young and talented people looking to find work and those looking to do their apprenticeship, trainings or courses in their own companies.

Therefore, we created the program ‘an Engineering Career’ and we invited the exhibitors of ITM Poland to take part. Job offers are available at www.itm-polska.pl under apprenticeship and careers and will also be available during the fair at main entrances.
