AUTOMATE 2026
June 24, 2026
Registration Now Open
Hydraulics and pneumatics have long been key actuation technologies for all kinds of industrial and in-plant applications. Recent advances in fluid power have increased their capabilities and provided for deeper hybridization and integration with electrical and other systems on industrial machines. Please join NFPA at the June 2026 AUTOMATE trade show in Chicago for a track of education programs on this topic. Across three presentations from NFPA members, we’ll showcase the application of these new technologies in the in-plant environment, with each engaging the audience in a robust question and answer session about current and future developments.
