Exhibition Introduction
Exhibition Value of the Shanghai International Die Casting Show
- One of the Three Major Authoritative Exhibitions in the Global Die-Casting Sector: Founded in 1997 and co-organized by the Chinese Mechanical Engineering Society and the Foundry Industry Productivity Promotion Center, this event has evolved over nearly three decades into a globally recognized platform, standing alongside leading exhibitions in the United States and Germany. The 19th edition in 2025 marked the first time the show spanned all four halls of the Shanghai New International Expo Center, with an exhibition area of 49,200 square meters. It brought together 585 exhibitors from around the world, nearly one-fifth of whom were international participants, and attracted 24,832 professional visitors, serving diverse application sectors such as automotive, electronics, telecommunications, and healthcare.
- Comprehensive Coverage of the Entire Industry Chain Ecosystem: The exhibits encompassed die-casting machines, molds, alloy materials, auxiliary supplies, automation equipment, environmental protection devices, testing instruments, software systems, additive manufacturing, and other key segments of the industry chain. From raw and auxiliary materials through melting, casting, automation and related processes, to post-processing and casting inspection equipment, the show offered end-to-end solutions for hot topics such as automotive lightweighting and integrated die casting.
- A Hub for International Resource Networking: The exhibition gathered leading enterprises from across the global die-casting industry, with deep participation from over 30 member countries of the World Foundry Organization. Past exhibitors have included renowned international brands such as Bühler, LK Tech, Yizumi, Italpresse, Dongda Sanjian, Fulai, ABB, and FANUC, alongside domestic industry leaders, jointly showcasing cutting-edge advancements in die-casting technology.
- A Premier Platform for Launching Cutting-Edge Technologies: Since 2017, the organizing committee has initiated the annual “Die Casting Industry Innovation Technology and Product Selection” competition, with winning innovations unveiled at the show. Many companies choose CHINA DIECASTING as their preferred venue for showcasing advanced products and technologies, as well as launching new offerings. In 2025, the exhibition hosted its first “Large-Scale Integrated Die-Casting Solutions Session,” focusing on hot topics in the field of integrated die-casting for new-energy vehicles.
- More Than 18 High-Level Forums Empowering Industry Development: Concurrently, the show organized 18 technical exchange events, including seminars on international die-casting market development and cooperation, specialized sessions on new-energy vehicles and vehicle body lightweighting, large-scale integrated die-casting solution forums, post-processing and finishing workshops, digital applications of die-casting technologies, smart factory–intelligent manufacturing sessions, and low-carbon sustainable development forums. These events invited domestic and international experts to engage in in-depth discussions on industry trends, technological R&D and innovation, and upstream/downstream industrial technologies.
- Authoritative Endorsement Through the Premium Casting Award: Since its inception in 2014, the “Premium Casting Award” has grown into one of China’s most influential brand initiatives in the die-casting sector. Now upgraded to the “Casting Carnival,” it integrates casting evaluation areas, premium casting appreciation zones, nonferrous casting showcases, and corporate talent summits. Judging is conducted by authoritative experts based on core criteria such as casting application fields, company reputation, product quality, and levels of technological innovation, with award-winning products receiving official industry endorsement.
- A Strategic Window for New-Energy Vehicle Lightweighting: Aligned with the theme “Building a Globalized New Paradigm for New-Energy Vehicle Development through Die Casting,” the exhibition prominently featured integrated die-casting, large structural component molds, and high-strength alloy materials—cutting-edge achievements that span from large-scale integrated front-hood molds to lightweight structural components for new-energy vehicles, systematically demonstrating the innovative applications of die-casting technology in automotive lightweighting and new-energy sectors.
- Precise Supply-Demand Matching Across the Industry Chain: Concurrently, the show hosted casting procurement meetings and industry-academia-research collaboration events. Through structured delegation plans and tailored supply-demand matching services, buyers and exhibitors were provided with scheduled, customized one-on-one negotiation opportunities, fostering deeper technological exchanges and accelerating collaborative efforts. According to organizer satisfaction surveys, 98% of exhibitors rated service quality highly, while 96% expressed clear intentions to participate again.
