The SPS IPC Drives now has a new name: SPS – Smart Production Solutions.

https://sps.mesago.com/events/en.htmlThe exhibition for smart and digital automation frequently known as SPS in Germany and around the world, has now officially received the name “SPS”.  The name of the well-established 30-year old exhibition has now changed.  Alongside the three original components – namely speicherprogrammierbare Steuerung, the German words for “programmable logic controllers”, the exhibition now showcases a much broader spectrum of solutions for future-oriented automation. It also reflects the technical progress over the last few years as well as the digital transformation of the industry. This displays how the exhibition has taken into account the merging of automatization and IT in the industry and continues to promise relevance, competence and exchange at eye-level.
