Formnext Asia Shenzhen 2026 welcomed 34,202 visitors while international attendance jumped 157 percent. The figures underline how quickly China and the wider Asian region are becoming one of the key centres of additive manufacturing.

Key details

  • 34,202 professional visitors attended from 113 countries and regions.
  • Overall attendance rose 65%, while international attendance increased 157% year on year.
  • The event hosted 330 exhibitors across 20,000 square metres.
  • Key themes included robotics, AI data-centre cooling, 3D printed footwear and print-farm production.

Why it matters

The scale and international growth of the event show that Asian additive manufacturing is no longer simply about inexpensive desktop machines. The full chain – hardware, materials, software, automation and production – is increasingly concentrated in the region.
