Topics from the industry

At the world's largest trade fair for electronics production from November 18–21, 2025 innovations from the industry's entire value chain will be on display and current topics will be discussed. Topics of high relevance to electronics production develop into leading themes for the industry—and thus into key topics for productronica.

In cooperation with the VDMA and the productronica advisory board, we have identified topics that are currently occupying the industry: AI in electronics manufacturing, power electronics as a core component of a sustainable world, and sensors in electronics manufacturing.

AI in electronics manufacturing

Despite an already high level of automation in manufacturing, the need for even more efficient production processes is growing. The use of AI opens up numerous productivity levers along the electronics production chain.

Power electronics

Power electronics is playing an increasingly important role in the generation, distribution and use of electrical energy. As a result, it makes a significant contribution to the efficiency of increasingly sustainable societies.

Sensors in electronics manufacturing

Sensors are the key technology for intelligent machines and plants in networked production. As the most important data supplier, they enable the digitization of the entire value chain.

The program­mable logic controller

Automation has a firm foothold in the manufacturing industry, and programmable logic controllers (PLC) play a key role in that, despite questions regularly arising about their justification in times of digitalization and large volumes of data. Condition monitoring, data analytics, or predictive maintenance bring industrial PCs (IPC) to mind rather than a control technology from the 1970s.
