Five stands worth a deliberate stop at productronica 2027

productronica runs from 16 to 19 November 2027 at Messe München, one of Europe's largest exhibition complexes. The show draws tens of thousands of visitors across multiple halls covering everything from PCB assembly and SMT equipment to cables, coils, test systems, and future production concepts. Walking the full floor without a plan means covering several kilometres of exhibit space and still missing half the relevant stands.

The five companies in this guide, KOMAX AUTOMATION, Rohde & Schwarz India Pvt Ltd, Keysight Technologies India Private Limited, Henkel, and Nordson EFD, represent a complementary slice of the electronics manufacturing value chain. Taken together they address wire harness production automation, electronics validation and end-of-line test, PCBA in-circuit test with manufacturing analytics, functional coatings and EMI materials for PCB protection, and precision fluid dispensing for high-speed assembly. A buyer focused on any one of those disciplines will find adjacent problems addressed by at least one other stand in the set, making this a practical first-day cluster rather than a random sample.

Why these exhibitors

A practical cluster across the electronics manufacturing value chain

These five exhibitors are not grouped because they share a single product category. They are grouped because the buyer jobs they address frequently overlap on the same production floor. A wire-harness quality manager at KOMAX AUTOMATION's stand has a direct interest in the inline and end-of-line test instruments shown by Rohde & Schwarz and Keysight. A PCB process engineer evaluating Nordson EFD dispensing systems will face coating and material specification questions that Henkel's stand is equipped to address. Visiting all five in sequence gives a production or quality professional a cross-functional view of a single assembly line's requirements in one morning, without committing to a full four-day schedule.

How to use this Shared Spotlight

Read the exhibitor cards before you arrive Each card in this guide includes a tagline and a 'why stop here' rationale tied to a specific buyer role. Identify which two or three stands match your immediate sourcing brief and mark them as priority visits before you enter the hall.
Download the official floor plan productronica publishes an interactive hall map at productronica.com. Cross-reference the booth numbers for KOMAX AUTOMATION, Rohde & Schwarz, Keysight, Henkel, and Nordson EFD against the map so you can confirm adjacencies and avoid unnecessary backtracking across Messe München's linked halls.
Follow the suggested route order The route below is ordered to reduce walking distance based on typical hall groupings at Messe München. Start with your highest-priority stand, then follow the sequence to catch the remaining four without retracing your steps through the same corridors.
Leave buffer time for technical conversations Stands covering test systems and automation equipment often require a live demonstration to be useful. Block at least 25 to 30 minutes per priority stand rather than treating each visit as a badge scan and brochure pickup.

Floor-planning tip Block the first two hours of the morning on day one for this five-stand route, when demonstration queues are shorter and technical staff are most available for detailed conversations before the midday foot-traffic peak.

TL;DR

5 stops worth planning

Suggested floor route

Walk the five stands in sequence to minimise hall transitions

The suggested order, KOMAX AUTOMATION, then Rohde & Schwarz, then Keysight, then Henkel, then Nordson EFD, is structured so that stands with thematic adjacency sit next to each other in the walk, reducing the number of times a visitor crosses between major hall clusters at Messe München.

Industrial adhesives, sealants, and functional coatings for electronics assembly and printed circuit board (PCB) protection.

About

Henkel Adhesive Technologies, the adhesives division of Henkel AG & Co. KGaA, is headquartered in Düsseldorf, Germany, and employs about 50,000 people worldwide. Founded in 1876 and listed on the DAX-40, the company supplies industrial adhesives, sealants, and functional coatings across electronics, automotive, and industrial manufacturing. Its electronics portfolio spans conformal coatings, potting adhesives, EMI shielding films, thermal interface materials, and conductive inks for printed electronics.

Henkel operates in-house Battery Engineering Centers and EMI test facilities that support customer validation without requiring external lab time. The company also offers simulation and modeling tools for digital material validation and digital twin development, a capability that shortens the path from material specification to prototype. With more than 45 years of experience in printed and conductive electronics, including conductive inks and pad-printing formulations for 3D-shaped parts, the division addresses both established PCB protection workflows and emerging functionalization processes.

At productronica

No productronica 2027-specific announcements have been published at the time of this guide. At the most recent edition of this show, Henkel presented EMI shielding film as a process-efficient alternative to metal housings for automotive electronics, alongside its thermal interface material portfolio covering liquid 1K pre-cured gels, 2K curable gap fillers, and phase change materials. Conformal coating under the Loctite Stycast CC 8555 name, the UL-certified potting adhesive Loctite Stycast US 8000AB, debonding-on-demand technologies, and pad-printing solutions for antenna functionalization were also part of that presentation. Visitors to productronica 2027 with requirements in any of these areas should confirm the current booth location with Henkel directly before the show.

Nordson EFD

Precision fluid dispensing systems — jet valves, dispensers, and syringe-based components for applying adhesives, sealants, lubricants, and assembly fluids.

About

Nordson EFD is a division of Nordson Corporation (NASDAQ: NDSN), headquartered in East Providence, Rhode Island, USA, and has specialized in precision fluid dispensing since 1963. Its product range spans non-contact jet dispensing valves, benchtop and automated dispensers, and disposable syringe barrels and tips used to apply adhesives, sealants, lubricants, and other assembly fluids across electronics, medical device, life sciences, and photovoltaic manufacturing.

The PICO Pµlse jet dispensing valve delivers microdeposits as small as 0.5 nL at continuous rates up to 1,000 Hz and burst rates up to 1,500 Hz, a specification relevant to high-throughput PCB and microelectronics assembly lines where contact dispensing creates placement or contamination risks. The PICO Nexµs jetting system extends that capability into medical device assembly, where consistent sub-nanoliter placement is a process-control requirement rather than a preference.

At productronica

No booth-specific demonstration program for productronica 2027 has been confirmed at time of publication. Based on Nordson EFD's consistent presence at Munich editions of the show and its current product portfolio, visitors to this show can expect to see precision fluid dispensing systems relevant to SMT and advanced electronics assembly, including jet valve systems, benchtop dispensers, dispensing robots, and disposable fluid-path components. Nordson EFD has appeared at recent productronica editions through Nordson Electronics Solutions and distributor partners, so buyers should check the official 2027 floor plan for the confirmed stand location before visiting.

What is the practical difference between your jet valve and contact dispensing valve offerings for our throughput and deposit-size requirements?

Before you leave the hall

Make your notes actionable before the show closes

After visiting the five stands, consolidate your notes the same evening while the conversations are fresh. Record which demonstrations you saw, which technical contacts you spoke with, and what follow-up materials were promised. productronica is a four-day show, but the most useful supplier conversations tend to happen in the first two days when stand staff have the most time.
