One of the most important events on the fluid power calendar is the triennial IFPE show, held in conjunction with CONEXPO-CON/AGG at the Las Vegas Convention Center. These sprawling shows attract well over 100,000 visitors with each iteration, with exhibitors and attendees coming from all over the world. This year’s IFPE will run from March 7-11.
I’ve been attending this event since the 1996 IFPE at Chicago’s McCormick Place—where does the time go?!—and I can attest to the importance of attending this fluid power mega-show. Our staff at Fluid Power World and Design World will be reporting on IFPE like never before, with detailed coverage in print, online, through social media, and at the event itself.
This special section on IFPE has a detailed rundown of the must-see aspects of the show, an exhibitor list, an overview map and some special sections on selected fluid power components—where they’re used and what you need to know to look for, if you’ll be investigating them at this year’s event.
When you’re in Las Vegas, I hope that you’ll come by our booth, S83257. Our editors will be filming videos with some industry leaders right at the booth, and we invite you to come by, and watch or get in on the action. We want to hear from you—what are you seeing at the show, what technologies are most exciting to you, what challenging new designs are you working on?
