In November 2025, the Productronica trade fair will once again take place in Munich – the international meeting point for professionals in the electronic interconnection industry. The previous edition attracted tens of thousands of visitors and more than 1,500 exhibitors from over 40 countries. This year, the fair once again promises to be an inspiring and innovative event.
What to expect:
- PCB & EMS (printed circuit board and assembly services)
- SMT (Surface Mount Technology) solutions for modern electronics assembly
- Cables, coils & hybrids – technologies for mobility and energy
- Semiconductors – the heart of electronics; manufacturing, packaging, testing
- Future Production – smart factory, AI, automation, production of the future
- Overall Production Support – process optimization, logistics, services
PIEK will once again be present together with IPC to explore the latest developments in the world of electronic manufacturing and interconnection technology. (They can be found at booth number A1. 321).
In addition, Rob and Stefan Walls will once again serve on the jury of the IPC Hand Soldering Competition, where the world’s best hand soldering experts compete against each other.
IPC Hand Soldering Competition
During this prestigious competition, the national preliminaries will be held during the first days of the exhibition, where participants compete for the title of Best Hand Solderer in Germany. The winner automatically qualifies for the World Hand Soldering Championship, which takes place later in the week. Here, the best soldering experts from all continents face off to determine who can rightfully call themselves the world’s best hand solderer.
“The precision, focus, and craftsmanship are of an exceptionally high level. It’s inspiring to see how participants push themselves to the limit every year.”
In addition to the honor, winners receive attractive prizes, including cash awards and gifts from various sponsors.
But above all, the recognition within the industry makes this competition one of the highlights of Productronica.
“Productronica is the trade fair for everyone active in the electronic interconnection industry. It’s the place where innovations are showcased, relationships are strengthened, and new collaborations are formed. We look forward to meeting our existing customers and making new connections. More and more companies are discovering PIEK, precisely because of our focus on quality and our full-service concept.”
PIEK congratulates all future winners in advance and looks forward with great enthusiasm to a successful edition of Productronica 2025!
