Due to the travel restrictions in the context of the Corona pandemic, Oerlikon relied on a hybrid booth concept. In addition to various new component exhibits from the fields of continuous polycondensation including gear metering pumps, filament (POY, FDY, IDY, BCF) and staple fiber spinning, texturing as well as nonwovens production, the dialog with customers was more than ever after such a long time without a fair be at the center of the trade show activities. All Oerlikon experts from outside China were connected online in order to provide comprehensive support for the trade fair visitors together with the Chinese sales staff, technologists and engineers on-site. Especially in the field of digitalization and new solutions for the “Smart Factory”, the intercontinental dialog at the whole time of the exhibition was a mandatory prerequisite for a successful trade fair.
