Kitagawa at AMB 2026

Kitagawa Europe to Showcase Next-Generation Automated Workholding and Precision Metrology at AMB 2026

Event: AMB 2026 (Exhibition for Metalworking)

Dates: 15–19 September 2026

Location: Messe Stuttgart, Germany

Stand: Hall 10, Stand C81

Kitagawa Europe GmbH has announced its participation in AMB 2026, Europe’s leading trade fair for metalworking and precision manufacturing. Taking place from 15 to 19 September 2026 at Messe Stuttgart, Kitagawa invites visitors to Hall 10, Stand C81 to experience live demonstrations of innovative automated workholding solutions and state-of-the-art metrology systems.

At this year’s exhibition, Kitagawa will highlight the future of flexible manufacturing with a live demonstration of

automated jaw changing on a Kitagawa MK200 Rotary Table equipped with a BR chuck. Powered by a robotic gripper, the latest ClampBooster technology, and specialized BR-AJC_M T-Nuts, this setup demonstrates seamless, high-efficiency setup changes for modern automated CNC machining cells.

Alongside automation, visitors can explore Kitagawa’s comprehensive workholding portfolio in action, including high-precision power chucks, collet chucks, and advanced 5-axis workholding solutions. Highlights also include static displays of the high-rigidity RKT500 rotary table and the cutting-edge MET robot gripper measuring system, designed to elevate process reliability and quality assurance in robotic handling.

Applications engineers from Kitagawa’s dedicated ARG team will be present throughout the show to offer technical guidance and discuss custom workholding challenges across key sectors, including aerospace, medical engineering, mould and die, and general precision engineering.
