Technologies, trends, and innovations for advanced plastic surfaces: We will be at the "Innovative Surfaces" conference on September 30, 2026, at the Kunststoff-Institut Lüdenscheid.
Innovative surfaces are a crucial factor for tomorrow's product success. They combine functionality with high-quality aesthetics, impress with durability, and at the same time create a pleasant haptic experience. The industrial implementation of new materials, processes, and technologies plays a central role in companies' competitiveness.
The annual conference of the Kunststoff-Institut Lüdenscheid offers a comprehensive overview of current developments in surface technology. Expert speakers from industry, research, and development will present new solutions, proven methods, and future trends along the entire value chain. Participants will gain practical insights and valuable impulses for the application of innovative technologies in industrial settings.
Once again this year, we at fpt robotics will be represented with an expert presentation. Andreas Braun, Business Development Digital Surface Technology, will show in his contribution „Digital Painting with Inkjet and Robotics“, how Inkjet technology can be used in combination with robot systems for modern coating and decoration processes. In addition to the technological fundamentals, the focus is particularly on application possibilities that go far beyond simple decoration and open up new potentials for industrial surface design.
