DIEFFENBACHER exhibits at ACCE Conference and CAMX in September

DIEFFENBACHER has two trade shows on its schedule in the U.S. this September. On September 9 and 10, 2026, the company will participate in the ACCE Conference in Novi, Michigan. Shortly thereafter, from September 21 to 24, the DIEFFENBACHER team will be at booth C40 at CAMX in Atlanta, Georgia.

Reflecting the distinct focus of each event, DIEFFENBACHER will highlight different areas of expertise at the two trade shows. At the ACCE Conference, the focus is on automotive and e-mobility, while CAMX covers a wide range of topics. Here, DIEFFENBACHER focuses in particular on the defence and aerospace sectors, as well as plant digitalization using its digitalization platform EVORIS.

“At the ACCE Conference, we’re presenting our solutions for lightweight automotive construction and e-mobility. Here, we offer our customers hydraulic presses for a wide range of technologies, including SMC, LFT-D, HP-RTM, wet molding, and tape-laying processes. As a systems supplier for the production of fiber-reinforced plastic semi-finished materials, we integrate every step of the manufacturing process with state-of-the-art automation solutions, from preparation to the dispensing and dosing of resin pastes to the production of the semi-finished product,” reports Brian Goodchild, Head of Sales North America Forming Business Unit at DIEFFENBACHER.

“At CAMX, for example, we’ll present our hydraulic presses and fully automated forming solutions for the manufacture of ballistic protection equipment such as helmets, shields, and body and vehicle armor to partners and customers in the defence sector,” says Goodchild, looking ahead to the trade show in Atlanta. “We’re also showcasing our solutions for the series production of components for the aerospace industry, such as DIEFFENBACHER’s Fiberforge tape laying system, our Cutting & Stacking systems for dry fiber fabrics and prepregs, our RTM press lines, and our cross-industry digitalization solution, EVORIS,” he adds.

Assisted by artificial intelligence, DIEFFENBACHER’s digital platform EVORIS is a smart software solution for the digitalization of individual machines and complete production lines. It comprises three solutions: EVORIS Intelligence, EVORIS Connect and the EVORIS Control plant visualization system.

EVORIS Intelligence measures, collects, and stores plant-wide, manufacturer-independent process and production data at a central location. The system helps manufacturers make their production processes more transparent, efficient and sustainable—an essential requirement, especially for safety-critical industries such as aerospace and defence.

 The new EVORIS Connect is a comprehensive digital customer portal. It offers an integrated ticket system, an Order Tracker for transparent tracking of spare parts orders, and an Equipment Hub to provide customers with a centralized overview of their entire DIEFFENBACHER machine park. The portal also includes a digital spare parts catalog that enables both documentation and ordering of spare parts directly from drawings.

 EVORIS Control combines classic machine operation with smart data, integrated measurement systems and full access to all EVORIS Intelligence apps and EVORIS Connect. With EVORIS Control, entire plants can be operated from a single centralized platform. The visualization not only shows what’s happening but also guides operators to the relevant information at just the right moment (guided troubleshooting). The intuitive user interface is scalable across devices, from smartphones and tablets to desktop screens and large-format displays.

 “With ACCE and CAMX, two of the most important industry gatherings in the North American composites industry are on our calendar for September,” explains Goodchild. “Both events provide an excellent platform for discussing current market requirements, showcasing technological innovations, and initiating new projects. We look forward to many exciting discussions with our customers, partners, and other interested parties.”
