The global sheet metal working industry is preparing for the 28th EuroBLECH. The trade fair will take place from October 20 to 23, 2026, at the Hanover Exhibition Grounds. Exhibitors were already able to book their stand space for 2026 during EuroBLECH 2024, and a large portion of the nine...

The machine manufacturer Jorns has something against deformations at the end of profiles during the bending of profiles or closing parallel open hems: the dynamic positioning function. 

RAS extends the Bendex control system on the Turbo2plus metal folding machines with the OpenEditor. With the additional input method, operators at the machine can individually control each machine movement and program bending sequences entirely according to their preferences.

Due to the recent discussion about undesired noise development on standing seam roofing, BAUMETALL takes up the interesting topic of separating layers and informs about their properties as well as the practical installation. author: Andreas Buck translator: Laura Kornhaaß

Appropriate installation of acoustic separation layers counteracts the prejudice that "a metal roof is noisy". author: Andreas Buck translator: Laura Kornhaaß

Social Housing that blends in with the site´s industrial heritage These titanium-zinc roofs and façades are the prove that social housing can certainly look modern and inviting.

The „UK“ models from Schechtl are manually operated bending machines, which are a top seller in the area of segment bending.

Glass, concrete and aluminium in harmony with wood—Jan Karpiel junior and Marcin Steindel have made a statement with “Tatra House” and brought the traditional Zakopane style into the future.

So simple and yet so beautiful is the house created by Polish architect duo Agnieszka and Grzegorz Ziebik for themselves and their family in Gliwice, a small town in the gateway to Katowice. The large archetypal roof dominates with simple shapes and different size aluminium panels.

Who better to ask to come up with plans for the school cafeteria than the students themselves? The architects at Stuttgart-based hammeskrause asked the children to create the new cafeteria. The result is a colourful, eye- catching building that turns heads.

Machines from Schechtl are known for being perfectly matched to the profile geometries of the metalworking trade. For this reason, the machine builders from Edling, Germany attach the utmost importance for having perpendicular free space on the bending beam and to include maximum insert rail widths of 10 to 14 mm for all machine models.

Establishing a connection with nature, with lava, with the cliffs and snow plays an essential role for self-taught architect Tryggvi Tryggvason—in his life, in his projects and in his most recent work in Reykjavík.
