MILWAUKEE – The International Fluid Power Exposition (IFPE) has announced a call for education content proposals for the event that showcases the latest innovations and expertise in the fluid power, power transmission and motion control industries. IFPE will be held March 14-18, 2023, in Las Vegas. The event is co-located with the largest construction equipment trade show in North America, CONEXPO-CON/AGG.
IFPE features targeted education events that provide crucial information on new fluid power, power transmission and motion control technologies to engineers and others involved in the design and manufacturing process.
“Automation, digitization, electrification, these aren’t just “buzz words”, they’re real concepts that are propelling the fluid power industry forward,” said John Rozum, IFPE show director. “From smart systems and energy efficiency to machine safety and motion control, the technology of tomorrow is out there today. We’re looking for the experts who can bring these technologies to life, share their insights and help show attendees gain valuable knowledge that they can take back to their businesses.”
“IFPE provides a dynamic global resource for industry professionals to keep up with the latest advances and interact with the fluid power community,” said Eric Lanke, president and CEO of the National Fluid Power Association (NFPA), who co-owns the show. “This is where engineers come to learn everything to help their company stay at the forefront, and we’re looking for people who are at the forefront of fluid power to present their insights.”
If you have cutting-edge knowledge to share, this is your opportunity to share best practices, updates, and case studies.
The topics of interest for 2023 should include a focus that fits within the following areas:
- IoT- Smart Systems/Connected Systems
- Electrification of Vehicle Powertrains (Hybrid to fully electric)
- Electrification of motion control
- Equipment Up-Time Optimization and Availability
- Energy Efficiency
- Machine Safety
- Autonomous Equipment/Machines
- Professional Development (career development, workforce issues, economics)
Proposals are due no later than December 31, 2021. Abstracts can be submitted here. Submissions will be evaluated by the IFPE 2023 Education Committee. Those accepted will be notified by mid-March 2022. For inquiries regarding the program, please contact: Helen Horner hhorner@aem.org, 414-298-4179.
