The debut print issue will be available exclusively at Hannover Messe 2026, taking place from 20th–24th April 2026. Visitors can collect a copy directly from the Automation News stand, located in Hall 027, Stand E02.
The issue features exclusive interviews with key exhibitors at Hannover Messe, exploring the technologies they will be showcasing. Coverage will include the growing role of humanoid robotics in manufacturing, the use of DC power on the production floor with a guided look round Phoenix Contact’s new facility, and perspectives on industry diversity, including features on women in engineering.
