The 23rd CONTROL international trade fair for quality assurance, which will take place at the Stuttgart Exhibition Centre from 5 through 8 May 2009, has already come back into focus: Because continuing internatiolisation in the fields of production and assembly is drawing attention in particular to the issue of quality assurance. Regardless of where and how intensively production is pursued, regardless of how well the employees are qualified and to what extent the manufacturing processes have been automated – to a greater degree than ever, it’s essential to keep all process steps under control and not leave anything to chance. Thanks to its comprehensive, globally unique information offerings, the 23rd CONTROL will qualify you and your company for both today’s and tomorrow’s quality testing tasks!


23rd CONTROL – World Class Quality Assurance!

More than 900 exhibitors and roughly 25,000 expert visitors from 78 of the world’s industrialised nations – these were the figures for CONTROL’s highly successful premiere at its new venue at the Stuttgart Exhibition Centre. Growth in exhibitor numbers, exhibition floor space, expert visitor numbers and internationalism document the tremendous importance of the CONTROL international trade fair for quality assurance as a globally leading event for a market which continues to demonstrate strong expansion. Foreseeable economic stabilisation will further intensify international competition amongst manufacturing companies from all over the world. The manufacturers and their suppliers are being forced to implement further streamlining measures, which include automation in the field of quality assurance as an essential constituent. Don’t allow your company to miss out on this trend: Make the 23rd CONTROL part of your mandatory marketing programme!


CONTROL – On Course with an Expanded Information Mix!

Nothing’s so good that it can’t be further optimised and developed! CONTROL’s core information offerings, namely a comprehensive presentation of worldwide products including components, assemblies, subsystems and complete systems, will be consistently maintained and expanded. The same applies to other time-tested CONTROL information building blocks such as the CONTROL exhibitor forum, the CONTROL seminar series, forums organised by renowned conceptual sponsors, and special shows. For the first time ever, CONTROL 2009 will feature an information and communication platform on the subject of “Quality Assurance in the Field of Automotive”, a sphere of activity which is lucrative for all manufacturers and suppliers. Beyond this, the already strong area of “image processing” will also be further expanded due to the fact that it’s becoming more and more well established as part of the ever advancing field of automation!
