Exhibitors have demonstrated their innovation in the past three years on this grand stage, which is eye-catching.

Siemens once again occupied the largest booth in the IAS Automation Museum this year. Their theme is "digitally driven to achieve a sustainable future". The booth is more than 1000 square meters and is divided into five exhibition areas, showing digital enterprises, multi-scenario applications, enhanced automation, innovative products and services, and ecological value creation. During the exhibition, Siemens Industrial Operation X enhanced Automation officially landed in China, this product portfolio integrates cutting-edge IT technology and mature software operation methods into automation technology, helping industrial enterprises to respond flexibly to market changes.

With the theme of "Digital acceleration towards a more sustainable future industry", Schneider Electric showcases innovative technologies, solutions and insights covering a full range of discrete, process and hybrid industrial scenarios. They demonstrated the latest EcoStruxure open automation platform V23.0, Cobot collaborative robots, the new generation of Lexium 18 series servo and other digital intelligence, low-carbon series of innovative technologies and products. In addition, they also issued a practice report on the deep integration of 5G+PLC, interpreting the broad prospects of 5G technology in the field of industrial control.

ABB has set up three major booths this year, showcasing dozens of innovative exhibits such as the latest collaborative robots, digital solutions, transmission and servo motors, and Bigale mechanical automation solutions. They made full use of various forms of display to present an "immersive" exhibition experience to the audience.

The theme of Mitsubishi Electric is "Automating the World Free Ridge". They have set up three exhibition areas for customer needs in different industries, providing customized, digital and sustainable solutions.
