From our team: What is NextGen – in just 90 seconds
Why Machineering NextGen Experience?
Machineering NextGen Experience will be a great opportunity for manufacturers, distributors and suppliers with a keen interest in one or more of the 10 technology routes that organisers have decided to focus on for this event to connect with a wide range of visitors and discuss the future of manufacturing today. What challenges are you facing, and what solutions can they provide you with now or in the future?
The production floor of the future is a matter of bundled expertise
Tomorrow's high-performance production floor is a bundled ecosystem of expertise encompassing knowledge of production, tooling, automation and digitalisation. A production machine or tool can only make a difference if it is coupled with the right software, robot, handling system and CAD/CAM software, and if it is supported by a broader set of optimised processes such as maintenance, logistics, quality and supply chain management. At Machineering NextGen Experience, you will find yourself at the heart of this bigger picture.
FIRST MACHINEERING NEXTGEN EXPERIENCE BRINGS THE ENTIRE VALUE CHAIN TOGETHER ON ONE LARGE PRODUCTION FLOOR OF THE FUTURE

Machineering NextGen Experience will allow you to see what the manufacturing factory of the future looks like through various demos that will be given under the same roof. This event will be entirely focused on networking and demonstrations, bringing together the entire manufacturing industry chain. Come and meet our various partners, discover the latest innovations and witness the future of manufacturing on Thursday 26 and Friday 27 March 2026 at Kortrijk Xpo.
The exponential shift to Industry 4.0 and digitalisation is happening at an unprecedented pace. All business units (which used to operate more often as standalone entities) within a future-oriented manufacturing organisation are now transforming into a single interactive and agile ecosystem.
On the production floors, where technology suppliers will showcase their expertise and combined strengths, you will be able to discover and experience first-hand (NextGen Experience) what tomorrow's production floor could already look like today. Machineering NextGen Experience is the perfect place for visitors, investors and technology suppliers to engage in meaningful dialogue, brainstorm, challenge each other, network and inspire one another.
