You could measure EMO Milano 2015 in a lot of different ways. Covering nearly 1.3 million ft2, the huge floor space displayed machining centers, transfer machines, barfeeders, stamping presses, additive manufacturing equipment, robotics, and every other type of tool used to make things.
With more than 1,600 exhibitors, the amount and variety of equipment was staggering. Tools that finish 74mm automotive engine bores sat at booths adjacent to 18ft tall crankshafts for maritime applications.
The central corridor connecting the 18 exhibition halls was often filled with a sea of people from Europe, North America, South America, and Asia.
My measure of Europe’s largest manufacturing equipment and technology showcase was miles walked per day to see the newest and best that toolmakers had to offer. In three days at the show, Google Fit tells me that I put 18 miles of wear on the soles of my shoes.
Too large to show in its entirety, the following photos show a glimpse at EMO Milano 2015.
