Control 2019 5 Ausg.Nr._08/2019 The Industry Sector’s Most Important Event N ot Only the Exhibitors are CountingonControl2019. “Control is the leading trade fair and it’s a highlight to be here each and every year,” says an exhibitor when asked about the importance of Control for her Com- pany. And she’s not alonewith this opinion: The Control international trade fair for quality assurance is highly esteemed by exhibitors and expert visitors, and it’s always very well booked and visited. Presentation Platform for Pro- totypes as well as Marketable Products Exhibitors take advantage of the world’s leading trade fair for qual- ity assurance in order to present their new products to a broad- based audience. Initial prototypes are showcased here as trend in- dicators, as well as marketable, time-tested measuring technol- ogy which is refined to an ever greater extent each year. From optical measuring technology with augmented reality features and 100% monitoring of collaborative systems, right on up to the latest computer tomographs and tactile sensors, and above all industrial image processing – Control exhib- its everything the users need. A trend which is becoming plainly apparent is the ever closer in- termeshing of quality assurance and production. Today, testing is conductedinlinewithoutlosingany time. Manufacturers of measuring and test technology are tooling up for this trend as well: modular applications which are integrated into the shop floor are being used more and more frequently than separate, isolated test benches. Today’s QA systems are incorpo- rated into production and must be capable of withstanding adverse environmental conditions for this reason, and at the same time they must be able to process data rap- idly. This is where industrial image processing comes in, on which the leading trade fair places great im- portance. Control is a Must for Exhibitors and Users Amongst other things, they place considerable value on the fact that an overview of the latest develop- ments in the field of measuring and test technology can be gained here in a compact format within a short period of time. And thus Control is in a league of its own, because most exhibitors assess the trade fair as number one throughout the world as a trade fair covering all aspects of the key issue of quality assurance.  Text & Image: P.
