In 2017 the International Trade Fair for Used Technology ReTEC starts in Augsburg
From 25 to 27 April the world of used machinery and systems will meet in Augsburg. Numerous associations, exhibitors and visitors have meanwhile registered for the ReTEC 2017 and the technical focuses have also already been established.

Augsburg – Most of the demand for used machinery is in newly industrializing and developing countries since this type of machinery is available at a lower cost and often has the advantage of being more robust. In the countries concerned, the availability of reliable machinery is often more important than operating high-end technology equipment. But also the European industry often utilizes used machinery, including lease returns, on many occasions, e. g. to supplement the existing production systems, or as support during peak times. Also in industrialized countries new machinery is only profitable when used in multi-shift operations and the delivery times for new equipment are often long. Used machines have the advantage of being available immediately.

The ReTEC, as the international platform for used machines and systems of all industries, is presently repositioning itself and starts in April 2017 in Augsburg. The FDM (Trade Association for Machine Tools + Tooling – Fachverband des Maschinen- und Werkzeug-Gro§handels e. V.) and EAMTM (European Association of Machine Tool Merchants) are cooperating as far as the technology is concerned and their members are also actively participating which leads to a wide range of offered products. In addition, the focus is on construction site equipment, industrial trucks and agricultural machinery, as well as metal working machines and machine tools. Joint participations from Great Britain, Italy and China are also planned and will ensure the exceptional internationality of the event. Apart from used machinery, the ReTEC presents different service providers specialised in retrofitting, disassembly and assembly, as well as special ways of transport for various types of machinery. This way the ReTEC is able to offer a comprehensive product range of used machinery and systems.

Different media of the various industries use the meeting point at the ReTEC and participate in the fair as partners. During the duration of the ReTEC, accompanying and parallel events will also bring other technical topics to Augsburg. On 25 April the publisher Konradin will conduct the congress “Grinding Technology 4.0” at the conference centre of the fairground Augsburg. Additionally, the “German Tree Care Conference 2016” will take place at the exhibition centre Augsburg on all three days of the ReTEC. This is the most important European event concerning the subject of tree care services. During this event the right equipment for tree care, gardening, landscaping and green design will be introduced on the fairground. In 2017 the emphasis of the technical presentations will be on the topics planting, work safety and work involving climbing.

The ReTEC is organized by the trade fair organizer AFAG in cooperation with Hess GmbH. The Trade Association for Machine Tools + Tooling FDM (Fachverband des Maschinen- und Werkzeug-Gro§handels e. V.) is the technical sponsor of the ReTEC. Further technical support is provided by the European Association of Machine Tool Merchants (EAMTM). Starting 2017, the ReTEC will either take place in Augsburg or Essen. The venue will alternate every year. The fair will always be held in April, at the same time as the Hanover Trade Fair.
