Kurtz Ersa & Würth Additive Group together at IMTS in Chicago

Kurtz Ersa together with sales partner Würth Additive Group successful at IMTS in Chicago. Clear mood of optimism to be felt in additive manufacturing in the USA.

For the first time since 2018, the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) was held at McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois, from September 12 to 17, 2022. The show, usually held every two years, had been cancelled in 2020 due to Corona. IMTS is the largest and oldest manufacturing trade show in the Western Hemisphere. The desire for a reunion and face-to-face exchanges were high, with more than 86,000 attendees registered for the show. The atmosphere and energy were also very good, with a clear sense of optimism emerging in the additive manufacturing process in the US.

This was also clearly reflected in the number and quality of our trade show contacts. We presented our Alpha 140 at the joint booth with the Würth Additive Group and its other partner Rapid Shape, which manufactures 3D plastic printers. The booth was always well attended, and visitor interest in the Alpha 140 was high. A particular success was that an Alpha 140 was sold directly at the trade fair and further very concrete discussions were held. Our summary of the IMTS is extremely positive. We are looking forward to good business after the show and to the next IMTS in 2024, which will be held again in Chicago from September 9 to 14.

A big thank you at this point to our partner Würth Additive Group for the always excellent cooperation before, during, after and between the most diverse joint events!
