PCIM Europe 2024 on a new record course

By expanding its range of products and services with an additional exhibition hall and focusing on the topic of Smart Power System Integration, the event is set to be a resounding success.

Around five months before the start of the event, the leading international exhibition for Power Electronics, Intelligent Motion, Renewable Energy and Energy Management has already topped last year's figures at this time with around 450 registered exhibiting companies; therefore heading for another record year in terms of exhibitor numbers and exhibition space.

"The development of the PCIM Europe in recent years clearly shows its great importance for the personal and professional exchange of experts from industry and science within the power electronics industry. Due to the high demand from the community, we have decided to expand the exhibition space for the upcoming PCIM Europe 2024 by hall 5 and thus to a total of four exhibition halls. We are aiming to respond to the needs of the industry in a timely manner and thus significantly increase product diversity and networking opportunities," explains Lisette Hausser, Vice President PCIM Europe at organiser Mesago Messe Frankfurt GmbH.

Exhibiting companies offer a wide range of products and services

The new hall 5 will feature companies such as Schweizer Electronic AG, PINK GmbH, Vogt AG Verbindungstechnik, Thales DMS France SAS, Sempro Technologies B.V., ENNOVI Holdings Pte. Ltd., Seifert electronic GmbH and the Fraunhofer Institute for Reliability and Microintegration IZM.

For the first time, visitors will be able to discover the entire spectrum of power electronics in four exhibition halls, including industry leaders such as Infineon Technologies, Mitsubishi Electric Europe, Semikron Danfoss, Wolfspeed and STMicroelectronics. In addition, the exhibition will once again welcome numerous new exhibitors next year, further expanding the range of products and services on offer.

New focus of the exhibition: Smart Power System Integration

The ongoing miniaturisation and complexity in the electronics industry is leading to constantly increasing requirements in terms of power density, efficiency, signal frequencies and thermal properties. As a result, processes and manufacturing technologies are merging and system integration is taking center stage. Power electronics places particularly high demands on materials, components, circuit carriers, temperature resistance and, especially assembly and interconnection technologies.

With the new focus on Smart Power System Integration, the PCIM Europe exhibition 2024 is picking up on this development and placing these specific requirements of power electronics production in the spotlight.

At the Smart Power System Integration Zone and Stage in hall 5, exhibiting companies at the PCIM Europe will present their innovative technologies, solutions, and application examples for current and future challenges in power electronics manufacturing. The focus will be on new developments for applications in areas such as automotive, railway and server technology.

Diverse lecture program on four stages

With the new Smart Power System Integration Stage, visitors can expect an extensive program of presentations on current products and trends in the power electronics industry on four stages for the first time. The different focuses of the Smart Power System Integration Stage, Technology Stage, formerly known as the Industry Stage, Exhibitor Stage and E-Mobility & Energy Storage Stage cover important trend topics, products and innovations from the exhibiting companies as well as interesting facts about electromobility and energy storage.

E-Mobility and Energy Storage remain important focus topics at the exhibition

Due to the continued high relevance of power electronics for the development of electromobility and energy storage, this trend topic will once again be highlighted in a special area at the exhibition. The E-Mobility & Energy Storage Zone provides the setting for a specialised exchange. The stage of the same name awaits interested parties with presentations on current topics and trends relating to the electromobility and energy storage value chain. In addition, live product demos will take place at the stands of suppliers from this area.

Accompanying conference with a high number of applications and top-class presentations

The trend topic of electromobility and energy storage will also be addressed at the parallel conference in the form of presentations once again.

The conference is setting new standards with over 500 submissions after the application deadline for speakers. The record number of submissions promises an even more comprehensive, high-quality conference program with presentations from the research and development departments of leading companies and universities from all areas of power electronics. The program will be published in January 2024.
