Never before has the industry experienced such rapid change. This is also impacting the demands placed upon technical trade fairs. As a result, DeburringEXPO will no longer be held as a stand-alone event, and instead will be incorporated into the new PARTS FINISHING trade fair. It combines the topics of deburring technologies, component cleaning, and surface finishing in a two-day event, which will take place for the first time at the Karlsruhe Exhibition Centre on November 12th and 13th, 2025.

Surface finishing includes the process steps of fine and ultra-fine grinding, polishing, honing, lapping, vibratory grinding, blasting, and brushing. The trade fair will be held once every two years – in even-numbered years – at the Karlsruhe Exhibition Centre. By bundling these three important areas, all of which are crucial to quality in parts production, and by holding the trade fair for a duration of two days, the promoters are responding to the requirements and expectations of the market.

More and more companies are scrutinizing the cost-benefit ratio of traditional trade fair participation. For example, considerable booth space is required in order to exhibit machines, which drives costs up. But nowadays capabilities and expertise can also be demonstrated digitally very well. These considerations have been incorporated into the trade fair concept for PARTS FINISHING.

On one hand, it makes it possible for persons responsible for parts production to gather concentrated information concerning solutions and promotes a dialogue between users and exhibitors in interdisciplinary development of solutions for special applications. On the other hand, shortening the trade fair to two days reduces travel, accommodation, and personnel costs.

With our trade fair concept that combines the topics of deburring technologies, component cleaning, and surface finishing in a two-day event, we’re responding to the requirements and expectations of the market. And this is why DeburringEXPO will no longer be held as a stand-alone event.
