LISSMAC reports positive results from EuroBLECH 2026

Promising customer contacts, keen interest in innovative solutions and machine sales made directly at the trade fair

LISSMAC Maschinenbau GmbH can look back on a successful appearance at EuroBLECH 2026 in Hanover. With innovative solutions for deburring, edge rounding and automation, the company showcased a broad spectrum of its product range. Numerous in-depth technical discussions, new business contacts and machine sales finalised whilst the exhibition was still underway ensured a positive outcome.

At the stand in Hall 14, the focus was particularly on increasing production efficiency, the automation of machining processes and cost-effective solutions for a variety of sheet metal working requirements. Many visitors took the opportunity to discuss specific production tasks and individual application possibilities with the LISSMAC experts.
“We held many interesting and promising discussions in Hanover, made numerous new contacts and were able to sell several machines whilst the exhibition was still underway. That’s a fantastic result of which we, as a team, can all be proud,” summarised Robert Dimmler, Sales Manager at LISSMAC.

Focus on automation and efficiency

A key theme of the exhibition stand was the growing importance of automated manufacturing processes. In view of the increasing challenges posed by the shortage of skilled workers and, at the same time, rising demands for productivity, process reliability and flexibility, intelligent solutions for sheet metal working are becoming ever more important.

With the LI-CELL, LISSMAC presented an intelligent automation solution for loading and unloading grinding and deburring machines. The cell is aimed in particular at companies dealing with varying components and small batch sizes, and can be integrated into existing factory layouts without the need for costly modifications. AI-supported image recognition automatically identifies components – without the need for CAD data or programming knowledge. The optional Smart-Loop mode enables automated loading and unloading using just a single robot. This almost completely eliminates the need for manual component handling. As a result, existing production capacities can be utilised more efficiently, and the staff resources freed up can be deployed for activities that add greater value.

Further developments in tried-and-tested machine technologies also played a key role. With the new SMD 122, LISSMAC showcased a compact solution for mechanical deburring, edge rounding and surface finishing. The combination of magnetic and vacuum technology in a single machine table enables the flexible machining of different materials and workpieces, particularly small components.

The SMD 3 EVO, presented live for the first time, represents the next generation of the tried-and-tested SMD 3 series. The revised machine design enables flexible machining of different materials, sheet thicknesses and workpiece geometries. A modern operating concept and digital assistance functions, such as the LISSMAC Setup Assist (LISA), support the user during set-up and product changeovers.

Another key focus was on double-sided sheet metal machining. The SBM-L G1S2 EVO processes punched, laser-cut and plasma-cut parts with material thicknesses ranging from 0.5 to 60 mm on both sides in a single operation – without the need for manual turning. This can save up to 60 per cent in machining time. Compared with conventional systems, the energy-efficient machine design also enables energy savings of up to 70 per cent, thereby contributing significantly to reducing operating costs.

For the machining of small parts, LISSMAC showcased the compact SBM-XS 300 G1E1. It machines the internal and external contours of workpieces with sheet thicknesses ranging from 1 to 15 mm on both sides in a single pass and automatically returns the parts to the operator’s side. “Machines that perform machining on both sides provide the ideal technical basis for automating the grinding and deburring process, as they eliminate the need to turn the components over – a technically complex operation that entails additional investment costs. The workpieces simply need to be automatically repositioned whilst maintaining the same orientation,” said Robert Dimmler

With the portfolio presented, LISSMAC underlined its commitment to supporting companies in designing their sheet metal processing operations in a cost-effective and forward-looking manner.

Personal interaction as a key success factor

Alongside technological innovations, the focus was on direct dialogue with customers and prospective clients. It became clear that, in addition to high-quality machining, cost-effectiveness, ease of use and integration into existing manufacturing processes are particularly important decision-making criteria. “Our customers are increasingly looking at the entire manufacturing process. Alongside reliable machining quality, there is a particular demand for short lead times, user-friendly operating concepts and cost-effective automation solutions. With our portfolio, we can offer suitable solutions for a wide range of requirements,” explains Robert Dimmler. The discussions at the exhibition stand provided valuable insights into the industry’s current challenges and opened up new prospects for future projects.

Positive momentum for future business

LISSMAC is very satisfied with how EuroBLECH 2026 went. The positive feedback and the sales successes achieved during the exhibition confirm the company’s focus on practical and increasingly automated solutions for sheet metal processing. Buoyed by the positive momentum from Hanover, LISSMAC is confident about the future development of its business in the metal processing range.
