IFPE Fluid Power Zone to Return to IMTS in 2016

NFPA is making plans to host the 2016 IFPE Fluid Power Zone at the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) at Chicago’s McCormick Place during the week of September 12-17, 2016. Building off the success of the past two IFPE Fluid Power Zones, 2016 is shaping up to be even more exciting. NFPA is planning to feature a “Future of Fluid Power” booth and a full fluid power industry educational track.

The IFPE Fluid Power Zone, along with the Motion, Drive & Automation and Industrial Automation, boasted impressive numbers and helped IMTS grow by 13.9% in 2014:

• 194 exhibitors (IMTS total: 2,035)
• 12,000 visitors (IMTS total: 114,147)
• 4,650 sqm (IMTS total: 120,000 sqm)
• 112 countries represented

Designed to be a dedicated fluid power educational program and exhibitor space within MDA North America, the IFPE Fluid Power Zone will showcase new and recently launched fluid power and machine control design technologies. NFPA would like to encourage all members to consider displaying their hydraulic or pneumatic products, technology, or services within the IFPE Fluid Power Zone. Special NFPA member discounts are available to exhibitors.
