The theme of CastExpo 2022, “Future Directions in Metalcasting,” embodies the spirit of the show’s busy exhibit floor. CastExpo 2022 will draw thousands of industry decision-makers, from CEOs to plant managers to engineers, who come to experience full-scale exhibits, watch machinery in action, and make connections with vendors who will push their processes to the next level. Cutting-edge presentations, interactive panels, and lively keynotes complement the action in the exhibit hall. 

“The CastExpo floor will feature the latest in technologies, equipment, and consumables for the metalcasting industry,” said Doug Kurkul, CEO of AFS. “Companies interested in exhibiting are encouraged to purchase their exhibits soon, as interest is running high and floor space is limited.” 

Worldwide suppliers to the foundry industry, as well as North American metalcasters, are invited to highlight their brands at CastExpo 2022.

Suppliers encompass businesses which provide products or services to metalcasters, including but not limited to consumables, machinery, software, smart manufacturing equipment, and consulting. 

Metalcasters in CastExpo’s exclusive “Cast in North America” pavilion will network with casting designers and buyers, who attend for a special series of targeted training sessions delivered directly on the show floor. 

CastExpo 2022 is April 23-26, 2022, at the Greater Columbus Convention Center in Columbus, Ohio. To learn more and explore how CastExpo can help you do business with the metalcasting supply chain, click here
