A separate Stromag stand will also be located in Hall 25, Stand J03.

Hannover 2017 will gather 6,500 exhibitors and 200,000 visitors to showcase the latest developments in all aspects of industry and engineering. The exhibition takes place at the Deutsche Messe in Hannover, and is considered the foremost event of its kind in the world. Altra has traditionally held a large presence at the exhibition, and this year is no different.

A huge range of products will be available for viewing on stand during the exhibition, including many operating in demonstrations to actively engage attendees with their application characteristics. Highlights include Warner Electric’s ERD GEN4 braking system, Stieber’s RDBK backstop, Huco Piston Dynatork Motors model and a running Bauer BK10 submersible bevel geared motor.

Expert engineers from all of the Altra brands present will be on hand to tackle questions or discuss requirements, providing a one-stop-shop for visitors to address all power transmission concerns. Such a range of expertise has naturally granted Altra a unique position in the market, with its global reach illustrated by the selection of European and American brands present.

Craig Schuele, VP of Marketing explains: “As a premium manufacturer with a truly global framework and integrated approach, we have the strength and depth to service application demands almost anywhere in the world. We gather together the biggest names in power transmission components under one umbrella, so Hannover 2017 is a perfect opportunity to transmit our extensive combined knowledge to our customers – both existing and prospective.”
