A strong fall trade fair season in 2025!

MicroStep impresses at Blechexpo and SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN – Industry is investing again

Published 27.10.2025 | Alexander Funk

Two leading trade fairs, one strong signal: MicroStep Europa looks back on a successful fall trade fair season. Its presence at Blechexpo in Stuttgart and SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN in Essen demonstrated the high level of interest in innovative cutting and bending technologies as well as digital solutions — and how important face-to-face discussions remain.

With a clear focus on high-tech and digitalization, MicroStep Europa presented itself at two leading international trade fairs for sheet metal processing and joining technology in fall 2025. At both Blechexpo in Stuttgart and SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN in Essen, there was enormous interest in MicroStep Europa's solutions.

 

“The industry is once again placing greater emphasis on new, modern technologies.”

“We sensed that the industry is once again looking to the future with much greater optimism,” says Managing Director Johannes Ried, drawing a positive conclusion. The discussions at both trade fairs were dominated by concrete investment plans and a genuine desire for innovation. This shows that the economic situation is stabilizing and that the industry is once again focusing more strongly on new, modern technologies.

The stands were very well attended at both SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN in Essen and Blechexpo in Stuttgart: “The discussions at both trade fairs were characterized by concrete investment plans and a genuine desire for innovation,” says Johannes Ried, Managing Director of MicroStep Europa GmbH.
 

Enormous demand for high-precision bending technology

on the latest developments in the field of laser cutting of sheet metal, pipes, profiles, and beams — with automated material handling playing a major role, among other things. “We are particularly pleased that we have made a name for ourselves in the field of high-precision bending technology in recent years,” says Johannes Ried, commenting on the enormous demand in this area. Newer product lines also met with a particularly positive response, such as compact and inexpensive solutions for surface finishing of cut components.

MicroStep Europa would like to thank all visitors for their great interest and looks forward to continuing the discussions — whether digitally or in person. If you did not have the opportunity to visit us at the trade fairs in the fall, you are welcome to visit one of our two CompetenceCenters in Bad Wörishofen (BY) or Dorsten (NRW) at any time.
