The 33rd edition of
BIEMH 2026 — the international machine tool exhibition being held 2-6 March 2026 at the Bilbao Exhibition Centre in Spain, has already attracted over 900 exhibiting companies from more than 15 countries. Included so far in the line up are Amada, BLM Group, Bystronic, Danobat, Fagor Automation, Fanuc, Ficep, Ibarmia, Kuka, Lantek, Nicolás Correa, Open Mind, Prima Power, Renishaw, Salvagnini, SMW Autoblock, Soraluce, Trumpf, and Zoller.
The organisers say products will be one of the central themes of the event, with machines — including ‘large-format solutions’ — operating on the stands. The organisers say they are also introducing a support programme designed to ‘enhance the presence of machinery at the event’, adding that: “As a benchmark event in advanced manufacturing,
BIEMH 2026 will feature a specific area devoted to automation, robotics and digitalisation, which are key sectors for driving industrial efficiency, flexibility and competitiveness.
“Following their prominent role in the last edition of the show, they will once again occupy a prominent place in this year’s event, within a specific area that will bring together the latest applied solutions. The exhibition will be rounded off with tools, components, accessories, metrology and services for production, thereby providing a comprehensive showcase for the industrial ecosystem.
“International outreach will once again be one of
BIEMH’s hallmarks. The event is currently being promoted in nearly 150 countries, with a special focus on strategic markets that include the USA, China, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, India, Germany, Italy, Portugal, France, the Maghreb (an area of Northwest Africa), Turkey, and Vietnam. In this context, the VIP programme inviting professional buyers will be key to attracting high-profile visitors and generating valuable business opportunities.
“
BIEMH 2026 will also feature areas specially designed to encourage networking among all participants and help ensure the fair will once again become one of action — a fair where technology is experienced in real time, innovation can be touched, and every encounter translates into real business opportunities.”
