MTA Vietnam has gathered 323 exhibitors from 15 countries and territories, including China, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Malaysia, Poland, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, and the US.
As a leading trade event in the precision engineering and manufacturing industry, it focuses on metal forming and sheet metal cutting machinery, metal cutting machine tools, measurement and testing technology, cutting and machining tools, automation, and control technologies.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Nguyễn Quân, chairman of the Việt Nam Automation Association, said the exhibition provides an unique opportunity for domestic and international businesses to showcase their products and services and get abreast of the latest trends and technologies.
Over the course of four days, participants can engage in networking, establishing relationships with suppliers, investors, and potential customers, he said.
A number of seminars covering topics like smart and sustainable manufacturing towards net zero, 3D printing technology and transitioning from the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) to the ODM (original design manufacturer) model would be held, he said.
Ben Wong, country general manager of Informa Markets Vietnam, the organiser, said: “Over the past two decades, MTA Vietnam has grown from a modest exhibition to one of the largest and most significant manufacturing trade shows in Việt Nam.
“We have combined our exhibition efforts with seminars and training programmes to enhance the capabilities of the workforce.”
Within the framework of the expo, the second robot competition “MTA Challenges” will be organised by Informa and the Small and Medium Enterprises Development Support Center 2 under the Directorate for Standards, Metrology and Quality.
The competition offers opportunities for university students in HCM City to express their creativity, teamwork skills and robot programming knowledge to nurture the next generation of automation engineers.
The Việt Nam Industrial Robotics and Automation Event exhibition area is expanding and adding more space for companies to showcase and demonstrate automation equipment to visitors.
It made its debut last year and was well received by industry professionals.
The expo, at the Saigon Exhibition and Convention Centre, will run until Friday.
