The MMA attended the System Control Fair 2013, a three-day exhibition at Tokyo Big Sight from November 6 (Wed) to 8 (Fri), 2013.

This year, we delivered a presentation entitled “The Beat of the Machine” to introduce MECHATROLINK’s total solutions. Groups of visitors were attracted to the demonstration of the dynamic performance of the products manufactured by MMA corporate members that are controlled through the MECHATROLINK message communications function. As 2013 marks the 10th anniversary of the MMA, we introduced the history of the MMA and MECHATROLINK’s vision for the coming years. We also set up different demo panels to show the advantages of various solutions, such as our multichip solution and PC solution.

The MECHATROLINK compliant product exhibition corner had a great number of visitors including MECHATROLINK users, product developers, and visitors from overseas, who are all impressed with the rich product lineup.

More than 1400 people visited the MMA booth during the three-day exhibition and new members joined the MMA. Thanks to all who visited the MMA booth. The MMA will continue to promote the MECHATROLINK open network.
