PTC Shanghai International Exhibition on Power Transmission and Control Technology

The Value of Participating in the Shanghai Asia International Power Transmission Exhibition

• PTC ASIA is the largest and most influential specialized exhibition in the field of power transmission and control technologies in the Asia-Pacific region, closely aligned with the Hannover Messe in Germany, and widely regarded as the bellwether of the Asian power transmission industry. Founded in 1991, the exhibition is co-hosted by Messe Frankfurt, the China Hydraulic Pneumatic Seals Industry Association, and the China General Machinery Parts Industry Association. In 2025, it expanded to cover over 100,000 square meters, ranking first in Asia and second globally.
• The core value of participation lies in its platform-based coverage of the entire industry chain and its ability to precisely connect exhibitors with key purchasing decision-makers. The exhibition encompasses 11 major product categories—hydraulics, pneumatics, seals, gears, motors, chain drives, belt drives, bearings, springs, and more—showcasing innovative breakthroughs across the full spectrum, from raw materials to system integration. Its professional audience includes senior procurement decision-makers from sectors such as construction machinery, agricultural equipment, machine tools, shipbuilding, automotive manufacturing, and new energy, including industry leaders like Caterpillar, XCMG, SANY, BYD, and Tesla, providing exhibitors with an efficient business-matching platform.
• The exhibition brings together global industry leaders and top-tier brands, creating a prestigious international brand presence. In the fluid power segment, international and domestic giants such as Hengli, Huade, Taiheavy Yuli, HAWE, ATOS, Continental, STAUFF, and KTR are all represented; in mechanical power, leading companies like SEW, Tailong, Dongli, Nangaochi, Bonfiglioli, Donghua, Zhenghe, and Sanlisi have taken center stage. The German and Italian national pavilions showcase precision engineering and time-honored craftsmanship, facilitating deep cross-border technology exchanges and significantly enhancing the international visibility of participating enterprises.
• The exhibition keeps pace with trends in smart manufacturing and green development, establishing a robust platform for integrated industry–academia–research–application collaboration. Zones such as the “Specialized, Refined, Distinctive, and Innovative Zone” and the “Smart Manufacturing Zone” gather national-level “Little Giants” and single-category champion enterprises, highlighting the latest advances in high-precision hydraulic valves, precision gearboxes, and high-pressure-resistant seals. For sixteen consecutive years, the “High-Tech Exhibition Area” has showcased 72 research achievements from 19 universities, including Zhejiang University, Beihang University, and Central South University, covering cutting-edge fields such as digital technologies, bionics, robotics, deep-sea exploration, and Mars missions.
• More than 20 high-profile forums are held concurrently, offering exhibitors strategic insights into emerging industry trends. These include the VDMA Forum on Intelligent and Sustainable Solutions, the Specialized, Refined, Distinctive, and Innovative Entrepreneurs Forum, and the Forum on Corporate Digital Transformation and Smart Manufacturing Solutions. Technical leaders from renowned companies such as Flender, NORD, Bosch Rexroth, and Lenz collaborate with academic experts to analyze pressing issues of the year, including humanoid robots, the low-altitude economy, AI empowerment, and overseas market expansion.
• For Chinese enterprises, this exhibition serves as a strategic gateway to showcase technological prowess, connect with global resources, and expand both domestic and international markets. Each year, the show attracts over 140,000 professional visitors from more than 100 countries and regions, with the proportion of overseas attendees steadily increasing; in 2025, the number of international visitors surged by 41.2% compared to the previous edition. Through this platform, exhibitors can access international procurement networks, highlight their independent innovation, and deeply integrate into the global power transmission industry ecosystem.
