The DVS CONGRESS 2026 provides insights into new applications and practical use cases as well as a wide range of real-world examples. The focus is on professional exchange about current challenges and research questions in joining, cutting and coating technologies as well as networking with experts in the respective fields. In Erlangen, Germany, the event demonstrates how knowledge becomes effective in practice. Two central trends in joining, cutting and coating technology take center stage: the joining technology requirements for welding businesses in defence technology and the role of artificial intelligence. Additionally, as usual, DVS CONGRESS offers information from industry and research on materials, safe manufacturing processes, quality assurance, digital process chains and automated applications. Here’s an overview of the key highlights of DVS CONGRESS 2026:
