22nd International Processing Trade Fair for Powder, Bulk Solids and Fluids

I am delighted to extend my heartfelt congratulations on the 21st International Processing Trade Fair for Powder, Bulk Solids, and Fluids (IPB 2024). I would like to commend the organizers, the Chinese Society of Particuology and N&uuml;rnbergMesse China Co., Ltd., for their enduring dedication to advancing powder technology and fostering the development of the powder industry in China. 
IPB serves as a valuable platform for encountering the latest technologies and advancements in the powder industry, offering a unique opportunity to engage with experts from around the world. With each passing year, IPB has expanded in both scale and substance, becoming a significant and enriching event that connects new technological innovations and industry development. 
Since the inception of IPB in 2003, the Association of Powder Process Industry and Engineering, Japan (APPIE) has participated as an overseas partner through the Japan Pavilion, which includes exhibitions by Japanese companies and the organization of seminars. Our nearly two-decade partnership has deepened mutual trust, overcoming the challenging circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we are confident that this relationship will continue for many years to come. The new powder technologies created through this partnership and trust will contribute to the development of the powder industry. Additionally, we express our gratitude for the cooperation with POWTEX, the international powder industry exhibition organized by APPIE. 
We hope the IPB 2024 Exhibition achieves great success and brings fruitful outcomes for all participants. We look forward to seeing IPB continue to thrive and grow in the coming years.

POWTECH : virtual talks

POWTECH WORLD update: 
online content and successful restart in China 
&nbsp;
<ul>
	<li>IPB China: successful restart in Shanghai</li>
	<li>Virtual Talks: new monthly webinar with POWTECH expertise</li>
	<li>New: POWTECH WORLD magazine</li>
</ul>
&nbsp; 
POWTECH WORLD is a network of the world&#39;s leading trade fairs for mechanical processing technology. Alongside the leading international fair POWTECH and the PARTEC Congress in Nuremberg, the event network includes POWTECH India and IPB China. 
&nbsp; 
Although some events had to be postponed in recent months due to the coronavirus pandemic, IPB China was able to chalk up a successful restart. The event welcomed 109 exhibitors and some 8,800 visitors over three days from 29 to 31 July 2020, underscoring its position as the No. 1 venue for Chinese powder and bulk solids experts in the post-coronavirus era as well. Meanwhile, the webinar series POWTECH Virtual Talks got off to a successful start in the summer and has featured interesting topics like digital transformation or measuring and control technology. In addition, a new online magazine about POWTECH WORLD is fostering dialogue and networking within the POWTECH community. 
&nbsp; 
Experts from China gathered at IPB China 
The International Powder and Bulk Solids Processing Conference &amp; Expo (IPB) took place from 29 to 31 July 2020 and was probably the first major event in the bulk solids industry to be held under the new circumstances. Almost all the 8,867 visitors came from within China. The organisers, N&uuml;rnbergMesse China, put extensive safety and hygiene measures in place to mitigate risk at the event. Despite worldwide travel restrictions, the event was therefore able to reach visitor numbers at roughly the level of the 2018 round. The more than 100 exhibitors also included many of the most important international brands, each represented by their local Chinese subsidiaries or partners. 
&nbsp; 
 
&nbsp; 
Great satisfaction with live event 
The post-event visitor survey shows that despite all the digital options available, exhibiting companies still attach great importance to face-to-face, personal exchanges. No less than 96 percent of exhibitors were satisfied with the event, while 65 percent, i.e. more than half of the companies involved, have already announced 
that they will be rebooking for the next IPB China in 2021. The top sectors represented by IPB visitors included the chemical industry with 37 percent, followed by the food sector (23 percent), pharmaceuticals (14 percent), new energy (13 percent), glass and ceramics (7 percent) and pit and quarry/non-metallic minerals (6 percent). Darren Guo, Managing Director of N&uuml;rnbergMesse China Co., Ltd. was pleased about the success of IPB 2020: &ldquo;The global economy is facing tremendous challenges due to the impact of COVID-19. Under these circumstances, IPB 2020 nevertheless succeeded in offering the industry a networking and communication platform. On behalf of the organisers of IPB, I would like to express my utmost appreciation to all exhibitors, visitors and partners. Consistent with our principle &lsquo;turning ideas into value&rsquo;, we are creating added value for our exhibitors and the entire industry.&rdquo; The next IPB China will be held in Shanghai from 28 to 30 July 2021. The registration phase is already in full swing, so exhibitors can now sign up for the event and book their stands. 
&nbsp; 
Virtual Talks offers professional online forum 
If you want to find solutions, get new ideas and contacts and work together to develop concepts, there is no better place to do this successfully and in a concentrated format than at a trade fair or congress. But for as long as live events are still largely on hold due to travel restrictions, POWTECH is offering an online dialogue platform specifically for the powder and bulk solids processing industries: POWTECH Virtual Talks. The webinar concept is well-structured and dialogue-focused. Each round of the Virtual Talks brings together three experts representing longstanding POWTECH exhibitors or end-users. For each topic, a 15-minute TED-style presentation is followed by another 15 minutes of questions and discussion points. &ldquo;We launched this format with our partner APV as an experiment in the spring of 2020. It was fascinating for us to see how well professional dialogue and interaction can also function online,&rdquo; says Beate Fischer, Director POWTECH at N&uuml;rnbergMesse. Apart from the APV (International Association for Pharmaceutical Technology), other associations involved in the programme are the VDI-GvC (VDI Association of Process and Chemical Engineering), the training institute VDI Wissensforum, and the DSIV (German Powder and Bulk Association). 
&nbsp; 
The next Virtual Talk will take place on 10 November 2020 and will explore the issue of digital transformation. Speakers from Beumer, Aerzen and AZO will discuss topics like &ldquo;disruption&rdquo; or &ldquo;artificial Intelligence and small data&rdquo;. Other subjects will follow at monthly intervals. The POWTECH Virtual Talks will be conducted mainly in English.

<h3 style="color:#aaa;font-style:italic;"><big>N&uuml;rnbergMesse has decided not to hold the POWTECH 2020 Special Edition that was planned for September this year. With this decision the trade fair organisers are addressing the reservations of many exhibitors and industry players about having an on-site event. Recently, exhibitors have been particularly hesitant in view of the partly unforeseeable effects of the coronavirus pandemic on the ability to travel and the economic situation of the various sectors involved. The next POWTECH will therefore take place in Nuremberg on the usual scale from 26 to 28 April 2022. The leading trade fair for the processing, analysis and handling of powder and bulk solids will be held in combination with the PARTEC Congress.</big></h3>

<h3 style="color:#aaa;font-style:italic;"><big>Initially, exhibitors, partners and associations showed a lot of interest in the POWTECH 2020 Special Edition, a solution adapted to the current circumstances that would have allowed an industry gathering to nevertheless take place this year. The Bavarian government&rsquo;s safety and hygiene concept for trade fairs taking place from 1 September 2020 also provided a degree of planning certainty. The concept for the POWTECH 2020 Special Edition was developed on this basis within just a few weeks and in close consultation with our institutional sponsors APV and VDI. &nbsp;</big></h3>

<h3 style="color:#aaa;font-style:italic;"><big>Energy and ideas for 2022</big></h3>

<h3 style="color:#aaa;font-style:italic;"><big>&ldquo;In recent weeks, many POWTECH exhibitors, partners and visitors have felt as we did: Although our hearts were saying yes, the current situation meant that our heads had to once again say no. In particular, the economic situation of many companies in the wake of the worldwide coronavirus crisis but also uncertainty about how the pandemic is going to evolve continue to be stumbling blocks to what is a much longed-for trade fair attendance,&rdquo; says Beate Fischer, Director POWTECH at N&uuml;rnbergMesse. &ldquo;I would like to explicitly thank partners, industry associations and exhibitors for their constructive and creative engagement over the last few months. Special thanks also go to the POWTECH team that came up with a workable concept in such a short time. We are now going to embody this energy and the many new ideas proposed into our preparations for POWTECH 2022.&rdquo;</big></h3>

<h3 style="color:#aaa;font-style:italic;"><big>Additional online option for professional dialogue</big></h3>

<h3 style="color:#aaa;font-style:italic;"><big>The next POWTECH will be held at Exhibition Centre Nuremberg from 26 to 28 April 2022 in combination with the PARTEC Congress for particle technology, which is following its regular three-year conference cycle. The next round of the POWTECH Virtual Talks, a webinar series on powder and bulk solids technologies in collaboration with the APV, will take place as soon as 3 September 2020.

POWTECH 2020 Special Edition cancelled

From the perspective of climate and environmental protection, or simply looking after resources in general, customers are increasingly asking whether the products they acquire have a sustainable life cycle. Since the Covid-19 crisis, critical discussion is also focusing on the supply chains. These are all good reasons for businesses to think carefully about the overall life cycle of their products in the future. They must consider not only the economic aspects but also environmental and social demands as a priority. The use of advanced simulation processes can contribute to more sustainable production, and this is one of the themes for the POWTECH Special Edition from 30 September to 1 October 2020. The Special Edition, adapted as a consequence of the global Covid-19 pandemic, focuses this year on knowledge sharing, including the area of simulation.

In many sectors of industry, simulation is now considered a standard tool in product development and optimization. The finite element method (FEM) is routinely used to test the structural mechanics of components. Simulation provides important insights into the development process, and in many cases it has substantially reduced the development time for new products.

The situation with process engineering is quite different. The only routine solution in this area to date has been to optimize turbomachinery using computational flow dynamics (CFD). Now, the discrete element method (DEM) offers suitable state-of-the-art tools to simulate particle flows and mechanical process workflows. Dr Jorge Carregal Ferreira, head of the Rocky DEM unit at the Grafing office of CADFEM GmbH, an exhibitor at POWTECH, describes this in detail: &ldquo;Physical simulation has previously been used only to a limited degree, if at all, in mechanical process engineering to date. Reliance is generally placed on experience or on lab tests. But the limit is regularly reached when scaling up from test benches in the lab to large-scale plant intended for manufacturing, or when transferring from a familiar production plant to a new facility. In these areas, simulation lets us understand the key influences and make the right decisions regarding process parameters. The result is significant cost savings, since the risk of having to readjust the production plant is reduced. It is also possible to perform parameter studies, sensitivity analyses and optimization processes to establish the right process parameters.&rdquo;

Individually simulating millions of particles 
Sustainable manufacturing therefore demands a sound understanding of the physical effects of the individual processes, or &ldquo;unit operations&rdquo;, which add up to form the overall process. Here, too, physical simulation can lead to important insights and improve the manufacturing process. Mechanical process engineering is very strongly characterized by particle and material flows. Materials and bulk solids are crushed, transported, classified, mixed, separated and treated. Entire components are transported, sorted, treated and further processed. &ldquo;Using the discrete element method (DEM), we can simulate these processes, and understand and optimize them,&rdquo; comments Dr Ferreira. &ldquo;This takes account of the movements and contacts between all the particles. With a very large number of particles, often more than a million, this calls for suitably powerful hardware. Using GPU (graphics processing unit) technology, the DEM now lets us simulate a much larger number of particles and the actual particle shape.&rdquo;

Optimizing plants with particle simulation &ndash; from quarries to tablet production 
Quality control in mixing processes is based on the quality of the mixture and throughput performance. In practice, measuring mixture quality is very difficult, since the plant must be stopped, and access allows for only a limited test sample. &ldquo;This is where the DEM simulation helps to make the process transparent, since we can determine the quantitative mix quality at any time and at any location using the right statistical analysis. We can then determine the impact of the influencing parameters and input values, which will enable us to recommend the ideal operating parameters.&rdquo;

In the pharmaceutical industry, tablet coating is an important element in the tablet production process. Although the tablet contains the expensive active ingredient, for reasons of customer acceptance the coloured surfaces must be produced with a high level of accuracy and no trace of damage. These coating processes are therefore crucial, since even a small number of tablets with damaged edges must be disposed of as waste, which incurs high costs. With DEM simulation it is possible to arrange the upscaling and process parameters to keep waste to a minimum.&nbsp;

&ldquo;We assume that DEM simulation will become a standard tool in mechanical process engineering in the next three to five years,&rdquo; Ferreira sums up. &ldquo;That is comparable with the situation in mechanical engineering, in which the finite element method has grown to become a standard tool in the past 15 years and is now used on a routine basis. And just like the situation with mechanical engineering, simulation will result in significant changes in process engineering.&rdquo;

POWTECH 2020 Special Edition: Safe Networking 
The latest developments in simulation will also play a part at the POWTECH 2020 Special Edition &ndash; both in the trade forums and for the exhibitors. Following the global impacts of the coronavirus pandemic, this year&rsquo;s edition has a particular focus on knowledge sharing. At the heart of the POWTECH Special Edition are the trade forums, which will be held in two exhibition halls with due observance of all safety regulations. The accompanying exhibition will give all exhibitors the opportunity to present their innovations in an efficient and appealing manner. Predefined stand designs and spacious meeting areas will guarantee the observance of all hygiene and safety regulations. Following the event, parts of the programme will be made available online for participants.

POWTECH 2020 Special Edition: How particle simulation will change process engineering for the long t

Mechanical processing technology is the basis for almost all the everyday products that we use. In 2020, POWTECH, the leading fair for the processing, handling and analysis of powders and bulk solids, will focus among other things on more sustainable ways of manufacturing and doing business in all segments. In this context, modern process engineering embedded into digital environments is the key to more efficient, more sustainable and fully recyclable products. POWTECH 2020 will take place in Nuremberg from 29 September to 1 October, when more than 800 exhibitors will showcase their technologies to production experts from all around the world. 
 
Innovations in mechanical processing technology are used in key segments like chemicals and pharmaceuticals, food production, recycling, non-metallic minerals (pit and quarry), and ceramics and glass production. For all these segments, POWTECH is the pacemaker for improvements in production facilities. &ldquo;Sustainability, more efficient and flexible manufacturing and the expansion of the closed-loop economy: these are the huge challenges currently faced by the production environment. Such issues affect large, globally operating concerns with a comprehensive brand portfolio as well as SMEs. And they all come to POWTECH to make their processes fit for the future,&rdquo; says Beate Fischer, Director POWTECH at N&uuml;rnbergMesse, describing the pulling power of the event. 
 
Networking for experts 
At the exhibition, which celebrated its debut in 1971 and will take place in Nuremberg for the 22nd time this year, exhibitors will present their latest developments for mechanical processes like size reduction, agglomerating, separating, screening, mixing, storage and conveying. The last POWTECH in 2019 welcomed 823 exhibitors to Nuremberg, around 40 percent of them from outside Germany. From machinery and equipment manufacturers to vendors of measurement, control and analysis technology and research establishments, all major players from the scene were out in force. They showcased their innovations to more than 14,000 visitors, 94 percent of whom were responsible for or involved in their company&rsquo;s investment decisions. In an independent poll, 95 percent of exhibitors said that they reached their most important target groups at the fair. As a highly specialised exhibition, POWTECH only attracts highly qualified industry experts, guaranteeing knowledge-sharing and networking at a high professional level. It is quite common for POWTECH visitors to come to the fair with specific issues or investment plans in mind. 
 
Networking Campus: the home of trending issues 
In the POWTECH supporting programme experts share their knowledge and inspire collective discussions. POWTECH has created the special Networking Campus platform to cover the trending issues in the process industries. In a relaxed atmosphere, visitors and exhibitors will discuss the issues that are important for the production of the future, including digitalisation, simulation software, life cycle management, energy efficiency and new workplace environments and recruiting. Universities and research establishments also present their institutions at the Networking Campus, while a jobs board allows companies to target young recruits. 
 
Knowledge sharing: explosion protection, innovations and practical tips 
Two forums offer a platform for additional presentations: The Expert Forum covers best practices in production with a focus on additive manufacturing and explosion protection. The new Life Sciences Forum will explore topics relating to pharmaceuticals and food production. Every day there are different table top displays from the pharmaceutical segment that also enable pharmaceutical excipient manufacturers to get involved in POWTECH. 
 
The highlight for explosion protection experts is the IND EX Safety Congress on Industrial Explosion Protection, which takes place parallel to POWTECH and provides information on international guidelines for explosion protection. The agenda includes such topics as &ldquo;Explosion Isolation&rdquo; or &ldquo;New Developments in Software for Risk Assessment&rdquo;. As the ideal complement to the theoretical content of the congress, IND EX e.V. is also organising live explosion demonstrations outdoors, where visitors can experience an impressive display of the risks and protective measures necessary in the event of powder and dust explosions. 
 
The POWTECH supporting programme is developed in cooperation with the APV (International Association for Pharmaceutical Technology) and the VDI-GVC (VDI Association of Process and Chemical Engineering), both of which are the institutional sponsors of POWTECH. The programme also receives support from other associations and the leading trade journals from the sector. Together with the exhibitors, they make POWTECH the world&rsquo;s leading innovation and knowledge platform for powder and bulk solids technologies.&nbsp;

POWTECH 2020: setting trends in processing technology and sustainable production

Highly satisfied exhibitors and visitors at the International Powder &amp; Bulk Solids Processing Conference &amp; Exhibition (IPB) in Shanghai: The three-day exhibition closed on 18 October 2019 with visitor numbers up 30 percent on the previous year and an increase in display area of 19 percent. Apart from the comprehensive range of innovative technology for particle, powder and bulk solids processing, the event also offered an impressive, high-calibre supporting programme with renowned speakers from all around the world. In 2020 the IPB will be rescheduled and will take place in July for the first time. 
 
At the 17th round of the IPB, 177 companies showcased innovations from mechanical process engineering and auxiliary technologies. The range on display featured machinery and equipment for pulverising, mixing, separating and agglomerating powders and bulk solids of all kinds as well as solutions for measuring, characterising and transporting granules. On an exhibition area measuring more than 3,000 square meters, the IPB therefore brought together the entire spectrum of modern process engineering solutions for industries like food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, pit and quarry, recycling and other sectors that process bulk solids. Around 30 percent of exhibitors are internationally renowned companies including leading innovators like Rembe, Netzsch, Malvern-Panalytics, Wam, Hoerbiger, Aviteq, Sympatec, Kawata, Schenck, and many more. 
 
The comprehensive product range attracted 11,366 visitors to hall 4 of the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition and Conference Center (SWEECC) &ndash; a new record for the IPB and proof of the unabated growth potential of process engineering industries in China. 
 
Supporting programme with top speakers 
The IPB conference programme offered visitors added value. The organisers &ndash; the Chinese Society of Particuology and N&uuml;rnbergMesse China &ndash; were once again able to get high-calibre speakers from China and all over the world on board. The highlights included the IND EX Safety Symposium, which covered the latest Chinese safety standards adopted in 2019 and presented customised solutions. The speakers included the authors of the new guidelines as well as explosion protection experts from around the world. &ldquo;The new safety standards call for products and solutions that effectively minimise the risks in powder and bulk solid production,&rdquo; explains Stefan Penno, Managing Director of Rembe Safety + Control and co-founder of IND EX e.V. &ldquo;As part of our trade fair appearance we highlighted these solutions in the Safety Symposium. The IPB is the ideal place to address the Chinese market and help shape the economic development in the country along with local customers and partners.&rdquo; 
 
Other areas of focus in the programme included pharmaceutical production and solutions for the general processing and handling of bulk solids. Some presentations also provided tips on successful intercultural business initiation. 
 
New schedule offers best future prospects 
With the forthcoming IPB the organisers are heralding a new chapter in the success story of the exhibition. In 2020 the event will relocate for the first time to the even more attractive upper floor of the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition &amp; Convention Center. This means that IPB 2020 will run from 29 to 31 July, parallel to the chemical industry fair Utech Asia. &ldquo;We are looking forward to offering our exhibitors and visitors an even more attractive and highly professional environment in 2020 as a result of the hall upgrade,&rdquo; says Kate Yuan, Manager IPB at N&uuml;rnbergMesse China. &ldquo;The parallel Utech exhibition will also significantly increase our potential to attract visitors from the chemical industry. So IPB 2020 is already promising to be a resounding success!&rdquo;

<div style="margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; font-family: Humanist777BT-Roman, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">New formats and unrivalled technical breadth proved to be the recipe for success. This year too, POWTECH impressed once again as a leading international fair for the powder and bulk solids industries. Over three days, some 14,200 visitors enjoyed a first-class trade fair programme and made useful contacts. In six halls at Exhibition Centre Nuremberg, 824 exhibitors from 35 countries showcased their innovations. Numerous presentations in forums focusing on chemicals, food and pharmaceuticals delivered the latest scientific findings. The PARTEC Congress for Particle Technology was also a resounding success and welcomed more than 500 delegates from 30 countries. The new Networking Campus concept, with its interactive programme for entrepreneurs and scientists, proved especially popular and was regarded as a genuine highlight of POWTECH. 
 
Following three exciting days featuring machines live in action, expert knowledge-sharing of the highest calibre and inspiring presentations, POWTECH 2019 closed its doors again. &ldquo;Our goal was to impress with a high-quality exhibition, new approaches and a diverse, technically sophisticated programme of presentations offering learning opportunities. And that&rsquo;s exactly what we managed to do, according to a lot of feedback that we received,&rdquo; 
&nbsp; 
 
concludes Beate Fischer, Director of POWTECH. Some 14,200 trade visitors, 40 percent from outside Germany, took part in the exhibition. This underscores the fact that at international level, POWTECH is the undisputed No. 1 industry gathering for the powder and bulk solids community. Alongside Germany, the top exhibiting countries were Austria, Italy, Switzerland and the Netherlands. 
 
Satisfied exhibitors and trade visitors 
Even more impressive than the sheer numbers this year, however, was the extremely positive mood in the halls and forums. The exhibiting companies covered a total display area of around 26,700 square metres. As an established leading international fair, POWTECH offered industry representatives a unique opportunity for networking and knowledge-sharing between experts at this 21st round of the event in Nuremberg. Initial polls conducted during the fair have indicated that 87% of exhibitors are expecting follow-on business due to the contacts and initial leads made at POWTECH 2019.&nbsp; 
 
Networking Campus a successful format 
The think tank format of the Networking Campus was very well received by both visitors and active participants. The 30 presentations and two panel discussions encouraged people to join in the discussion about the trending issues of the future. As well as scientific institutes, associations and start-ups, major players from the various sectors were also able to present their developments and ideas. The open, moderated presentation stage facilitated a participant-driven discussion and was especially popular with visitors to the campus. &ldquo;We will certainly be incorporating the Networking Campus into future events again. It has simply proven itself to be a suitable format and adds enormous value to POWTECH,&rdquo; says Beate Fischer. &ldquo;We are especially pleased that even well-known companies discovered the Networking Campus for themselves and actively supported it by providing their expertise,&rdquo; Fischer continues. 
 
Recruiting Day the point of contact for initial discussions 
The Recruiting Day on the third day of the fair proved very popular and showed that POWTECH and the Networking Campus are ideally suited to provide initial contacts between employees and potential job applicants. 
 
PARTEC: Particle technology rooted in everyday life 
PARTEC, the internationally renowned Congress for Particle Technology, was also a great success. It offered 500 delegates from 30 countries the opportunity to gain new inspiration and expert knowledge at first hand. Under the theme &ldquo;Particles for a better Life&rdquo;, representatives of the particle technology sector had plenty of opportunities to explore and discuss particle technology with reference to various aspects of everyday life like cosmetics, medicines and cleaning products. In the English-language programme, a total of six keynote speakers offered deep insights into areas like additive manufacturing, CO2 reduction and future technologies from the life sciences. At PARTEC, 250 lectures and the exhibition of 180 research posters provided a comprehensive overview. 
 
Accolade for excellence in research 
During the PARTEC opening ceremony, the honorary sponsor of the conference, the VDI Association of Process and Chemical Engineering (GVC), presented the Friedrich L&ouml;ffler Award to Junior Professor Carsten Schilde from the Technical University of Brunswick. In his work, the scientist combines basic research in particle technology with cutting-edge, product-related R&amp;D. This award for up-and-coming talent honours young experts from industry and the research community who have rendered exceptional service in the areas particle research, particle technology and product design. 
 
New chairman appointed 
At the end of this year&rsquo;s PARTEC, Professor Stefan Heinrich, Director of the Institute of Solids Process Engineering and Particle Technology at the Technical University of Hamburg, handed over the chairmanship of PARTEC for 2022 to his successor Professor Arno Kwade from the Technical University of Brunswick, Institute for Particle Technology. The congress takes place every three years parallel to POWTECH in the spring. 
 
Concentrated expertise in forums and special shows 
The two forums provided the latest findings and in-depth expertise from the areas food, pharmaceuticals and chemicals. In the English-language programme of the Pharma.Manufacturing.Excellence Forum, which is coordinated by the APV (International Association for Pharmaceutical Technology), representatives from the pharmaceutical sector had the opportunity to learn more about the manufacture of pharmaceutical excipients, tablet production, coating and continuous manufacturing. The presentations and table-top displays were complemented by corresponding guided tours. 
 
The Expert Forum Chemicals &amp; Food was also very impressive and covered the latest hot topics like compressed air supply, food safety and explosion protection. The latter topic in particular was very popular. The controlled explosions in the outdoor grounds provided a live demonstration of how to avoid accidents in production facilities. The VDMA special show &ldquo;Dust recognises boundaries &ndash; free trade doesn&rsquo;t&rdquo; exhibited drying processes that are in use worldwide.

POWTECH and PARTEC 2019: powerful process engineering duo in Nuremberg

IPB 2021 review

&bull;POWTECH India: Mumbai, 11-13 October &bull;IPB China: Shanghai, 17-19 October Global expertise in powder and bulk solids: in October this year, two POWTECH World trade fairs in India and China will once again offer excellent networking opportunities for manufacturers of process engineering machinery and plant. POWTECH India will take place in Mumbai from 11 to 13 October: the combined trade fair and congress focuses on the latest innovations in the area of powder and bulk solids, and is a meeting place for experts and users throughout the Indian sub-continent. And the International Powder &amp; Bulk Solids Processing Conference &amp; Exhibition (IPB 2018) will open its doors in Shanghai from 17 to 19 October. The supporting programme for IPB includes a Pharma Day and a seminar on &ldquo;Materials for Additive Manufacturing&rdquo;. The two events are expected to attract more than 10,000 visitors in total. The POWTECH World trade fairs, POWTECH India and IPB China, focus on the entire range of powder and bulk solids processing and mechanical process engineering. For manufacturers of machines and plant for grinding, separating, mixing, transportation and storage of bulk solids, and for analysis and metrology, these events offer ideal access to the markets in India and Asia. For IPB 2018, organizer N&uuml;rnbergMesse China expects about 200 exhibitors, about 40 percent coming from outside China &ndash; including many market and technology leaders like Netzsch, Neuman &amp; Esser, Compass, UWT, Malvern Panalytical and Rembe. IPB: Additive Manufacturing and pharmaceutical manufacture In parallel with the trade fair, a supporting programme aligned with the latest industry topics will provide stimuli for the sector: IPB 2018 will include a Pharma Day for the third time. In collaboration with the International Association for Pharmaceutical Technology (APV), top-level speakers will report on advances in powder and particle technology for pharmaceutical production. A further emphasis in the supporting programme for IPB 2018 is the subject of &ldquo;Powder materials for Additive Manufacturing&rdquo;. In April of this year, N&uuml;rnbergMesse China and the Chinese Society of Particuology organized a successful Road Show event in Beijing on this group of subjects. A seminar at IPB in October will pick up on this future-oriented theme once again. And a match-making system at IPB 2018 will make it even easier for participants to make the contacts they need. The online-based system is available for all exhibitors and visitors. Appointments can be arranged from July. &ldquo;We are expecting growth in both exhibitor and visitor numbers at IPB 2018,&rdquo; says Kate Yuan, who has been involved in the event for four years now and heads the IPB event management starting from this year. &ldquo;With its 16-year history, IPB is the ideal location for sharing views and finding new solutions for powder and bulk solids processing. We extend a warm welcome to exhibitors and visitors from all over the world.&rdquo; POWTECH India: Three days of innovation and expertise POWTECH India, in Mumbai, is aimed mainly at trade visitors in the pharmaceutical and food sectors, as well as those from the chemical, cement, and building and non-metallic mineral industries. The event brings together leading providers in the area of mechanical process engineering from Germany, China, the UK, and many other countries, as well as leading Indian manufacturers.
