Its roots are in the Korea Machinery Fair, and the current direction brings that capital-equipment tradition together with industrial AI. For a production or maintenance team, the useful connection is between the machine, the components that keep it running and the software that manages it.
The show drew 149 exhibiting companies from 13 countries and 11,060 visitors in 2025, following 92 exhibitors and 10,267 visitors in 2024. The audience is primarily Korean, with overseas buyers adding an export channel. Metalworking, automotive and electronics, and robotics feature prominently in its visitor profile. The industrial AI emphasis widens the conversation from individual equipment purchases to how factories operate, while the plant and energy exhibitors keep conventional engineering needs firmly on the floor.
How it compares

- This show: AMXPOSeoul
For a major machine-tool purchase, SIMTOS offers a deeper specialist comparison. Its pavilions separate metal cutting and die and mold technology, tooling and measurement, welding, and press and forming equipment. Its April calendar makes it a different planning point from AMXPO’s fall show. A team choosing machining capacity across many competing brands has a strong reason to make SIMTOS its principal sourcing trip.
AW (Smart Factory + Automation World) in Seoul is more concentrated on factory automation, machine vision, smart manufacturing and logistics. It brought together 500 exhibitors in 2026. Its March schedule and dedicated vision and automation shows suit controls engineers and teams whose project starts with sensors, software or material handling.
AMXPO makes the most sense when the buying brief crosses those boundaries. A plant modernization project can involve machining equipment, bearings and components, maintenance monitoring, storage and process equipment as well as AI. AMXPO lets a Korean manufacturing team pursue that broader supplier mix, and gives overseas suppliers a setting built around Korean industrial demand and export consultations.
AMXPO is the right trip for teams modernizing Korean factories across machinery, maintenance, components and industrial AI.
Who exhibits
ORSKOREA brings precision grinding machines and spindles, while WOOJIN’s measurement and condition-monitoring systems address plant reliability. InnoKeep adds AI-assisted maintenance management to that engineering mix. JRT’s industrial robots and Kardex Korea’s storage systems extend the floor toward automated production and logistics, alongside Doosan Enerbility’s plant equipment. This is a supplier mix for connecting equipment decisions to factory operations, with Korean manufacturers at its center and international companies participating through the same industrial categories.

AMXPO 2026
AMXPO 2026 links its machinery floor with the Industrial AI Expo and a conference program centered on physical AI and autonomous manufacturing. Insight Connect brings together industrial AI implementation, robot safety and digital twins; the Industrial AI & Manufacturing Innovation Conference adds cases from LG CNS, Microsoft, Hyundai Rotem and Doosan Digital Innovation. M.AX CON puts Korea’s manufacturing AI strategy alongside the supplier discussions. Technology seminars bring the focus back to practical operations, including steam recovery, storage and maintenance management.
- Pair InnoKeep’s CMMS demonstration with its maintenance-first technology seminar to compare the shop-floor recording workflow with the implementation approach.
- For equipment reliability, combine WOOJIN’s vibration and gas-leak monitoring with ORSKOREA’s grinding and spindle engineering; the two conversations address different parts of keeping production stable.
- Distinguish the TECH X STAGE program from M.AX CON in the Grand Ballroom: the former concentrates on implementation cases, while the latter addresses manufacturing AI strategy.
Exhibiting
The stand options run from space only to shell scheme and premium packages, each including a digital showroom listing. The higher-specification package adds wall graphics and lighting, while space-only participation requires a larger footprint than a basic shell stand. Equipment, components and plant suppliers gain the clearest fit when they can connect a product demonstration to a Korean factory’s operating problem. The hosted-buyer program adds export consultations to the exhibition.
