How can companies make their electronics manufacturing operations more efficient, sustainable and highly automated? Rehm Thermal Systems will provide answers to these and other key questions from October 6 to 8, 2026, at the inaugural EFX – Expo for Electronics Manufacturing in Stuttgart.
In Hall 9, Booth 9C19, trade visitors can look forward to a varied program covering modern manufacturing processes, reflow soldering, automation, digitalization and connected production solutions. The focus will be not only on new technologies, but above all on the specific challenges encountered in day-to-day production.
As a launch partner and member of the Exhibitor Advisory Board, Rehm Thermal Systems has actively supported the development of the new event format from the outset. Working together with Messe Stuttgart and other industry representatives, the company is contributing its many years of experience in electronics manufacturing to establish EFX as a forward-looking platform for knowledge transfer, innovation and face-to-face exchange.
The new industry event addresses key topics shaping the future, including smart manufacturing, digitalization, automation and sustainability. Manufacturers, users and partners will have the opportunity to learn about the latest developments, share experiences and jointly develop new ideas for competitive electronics production.
Expert Knowledge for Day-to-Day Production
On all three days of the trade fair, Rehm Thermal Systems will offer a varied program of practical technical presentations and personal discussions. The company’s experts will demonstrate how processes can be systematically optimized, resources used more efficiently and employees prepared for new requirements.
The following topics are on the program:
Personal Exchange Through Bar Talks and Networking
The experts will also be available for discussions away from the Rehm booth. During the Bar Talks at the EFX Café and EFX Bar, participants can explore selected topics in greater depth in an informal setting, gain new perspectives and make valuable contacts within the electronics industry.
