Messe Stuttgart presents the fair AMB 2004
At the fair, exhibitors present innovations and new developments of the technique of measurement and the assurance of quality, robotics, the technique of manipulation of parts and tools, software solutions, software and peripheral systems, as well as components, accessories and construction groups.
To these are added the construction of vehicles, automotive and supply industry, machine building, EBM industry, the electroindustria, the construction of tools and moulds, the industries Aeronautics and Astronautics and other sectors that employ high-tech machines.
They are represented numerous countries with major companies in their respective markets, such as machine CME, Danobat, Anayak, Amada, Agie Charmilles, Boehringer Werkzeugmaschinen, Deckel Maho Gildemeister, EMCO Maier, Mori Seiki, Huron, Gühring, Komet, Mapal or Iscar, among others.
Structure and exhibitions
An exhibition with a series of conferences on the theme "Potential for rationalization of high speed machining" are planned for the AMB 2004. Also offer cycles of conferences of partners of the Institute of management of the production, technology and machine tool (PTW) of the your Darmstadt, of Uni Stuttgart, from the NC society of implementation of new technologies and the mac technical magazine. Following the success of the contest the "Turner of the year", carried out for the first time in the last AMB, will be repeated in this second edition. The objective of this competition is to publicize the profession of high technology of the Turner in a time of ever more specialized technicians lack.
Exceptional location
The construction of vehicles produces a quarter of all industrial sales, 19% machine building and electro-technology/mechanics of precision/optical 16%. In the areas of machine building, construction of vehicles, the manufacture of metal products and in the electrotechnical works a 71 per cent of all employees of the Baden - Württemberg-producing industry.

The machine tool in Germany
With a rate of 21 per cent, Germany continues to occupy the first international position in the production of machine tools, ahead of Japan and Italy. The optimistic estimate for 2004 is based primarily on the positive developments of the important regions of sales that are Asia and North America. On the other hand, the important market of Western Europe is still below the average for many years in entries of orders. The export share is only 60 per cent. In 2002, Spain was at number nine of Germany's export of machine tool in total. The Spaniards also play an important role in imports. Here they are also at number nine.
German manufacturers of precision tools are also optimistic about the year 2004. Expected an increase in sales of around 2 per cent to 7.85 billion euros. Last year, sales were approximately 7.7 billions of euros, which accounted for an increase of around 1 per cent with respect to the previous year, according to internal surveys conducted by the Professional Association of precision tools in the VDMA (German Association for the construction of machinery and installations). The complete industry of precision tools covers chip startup tools, clamping tools, manufacturing, measuring and testing techniques and build tools. With this result, according to data from the sector, it has broken a new record sales. With the exception of the year 2002, sales have increased every year. Due to its leading position in technology, the tools of precision "Made in Germany" took a great interest around the world. With an export share of almost 50 percent and a share in world trade more than 21 percent, the German precision tools are leaders at the international level. Spain was also at number nine of the major exporting countries.
