Trade Show??

[DENNISH]

IS THERE A YEARLY TRADE SHOW WHERE PLC'S AND EVERYTHING THAT GOES WITH THEM ARE THE FEATURED TOPIC. I KNOW AB HAS IT'S OWN SHOW, BUT I WOULD BE INTERESTED IN GOING TO ONE THAT INCLUDED MANY DIFFERENT VENDORS.

There is an automation show at National Manufacturing Week in Chicago every Feb or March. The last few years, the big boys have pulled out and it has pretty much gone down the drain. Not worth the trip.

ISA puts on a TechFest. A bit more Instrumentation than just Controls, but more than just Rockwell are there.

This year, its at, by coincidence, McCormick Place, in Chicago. Oct 21-24.

They also have a smaller show in Las Vegas, June 18-19.

I miss the Wood Tech show in Portland... we pulled out of it two years ago. It was like a big family reunion: you may change companies but you seldom change industries around here.
