The Salzgitter corporation is once again an important exhibitor at the Industrial Supply leading trade fair in Hall 6, Stand F02. Together with its subsidiaries it is presenting innovations for the industrial and automotive branches and is looking forward to intensive interchange with visitors to the fair, customers and partners.

The Salzgitter stand will be the contact point for the “Industry 4.0” technology tour. An innovative research project from the KHS GmbH subsidiary is presented. Two guided groups will visit the Salzgitter stand twice a day and learn about the project. In the framework of the Direct Print Machine (printing directly onto PET bottles), RFID tags are used for the simulation of pucks - intelligent work piece carriers for the transport and alignment of PET bottles. The display of the HMI (Human Machine Interface) as well as that of the tablet reacts, according to the applicable configuration, to the changed data situation and automatically adjusts the necessary documentation dynamically.

Another focus of the appearance at the fair is the new brand strategy from Salzgitter Flachstahl GmbH (SZFG). Under the slogan “Names Sharpen the Image”, SZFG has developed a new product naming concept which follows a clear system. Exhibits like an integral subframe from the current Mercedes C-class and a demonstrator for the range of colors possible with FolaSal® are application examples for the new products and their names.

A highlight exhibit is the MAN truck cab from the TGL range type L10C. SZFG supplies MAN with various grades of steel. The components of the cab include some made from soft steels for cold forming.
