Positive Conversations at Motek 2024
Motek, the international trade fair for automation in production and assembly, took place for the 42nd time in Stuttgart from October 8 to 11, 2024. A total of 409 exhibitors from 19 countries presented their new systems and solutions – one of them was SCHILLER AUTOMATION with co-exhibitor Vision4Quality.
This year, our Sonnenbühl-based subsidiary SCHILLER AUTOMATION booked a booth in Stuttgart at relatively short notice. Together with our partner Vision4Quality and with the support of colleagues from the entire Automation division, we developed a small but attractive trade fair appearance. The three displayed exhibits arouse curiosity to the walking public and attracted many interested visitors. SCHILLER AUTOMATION presented the dispensing station, an automated component handling station for high-precision contours of various adhesive and sealing materials. Vision4Quality exhibited two factory assistance systems that are used, for example, in final inspection and assembly control or order picking.
The inquiries from trade visitors mainly revolved around increasing productivity, reducing unit costs and optimizing performance. It turned out that the choice of Hall 5 was just perfect to attract the right visitors with the dispensing station on display. Fellow competitors, partners and customers were all in the immediate vicinity. This resulted in an unexpectedly good trade fair situation with an astonishing number of high-quality leads. Despite the current tense economic situation, it was possible to meet numerous well-known exhibitors in Stuttgart and thus set the course for the hopefully imminent upswing.



The trade fair was well attended with just under 19,000 trade visitors on all four days. Jochen Meinhof, Managing Director at SCHILLER AUTOMATION and responsible for sales and service: “We went to Motek with relatively mixed expectations, but were pleasantly surprised in a very positive way. Obviously, there are still some projects on the market. Now it's time to turn these into orders!“
