In exhibition period, the organizer held a one and half days <Weighing Technology Seminars & New Tech, New Products Press Conference>. During the meeting, CWIA's Load Cell Committee and Weighing Indicator Committee issued the award of Load Cell/ Weighing Indicator Excellent Thesis to the writers. The host has invited Researcher Mr. Liu Jiuqing and Senior Engineer Mr. Chen Rixing delivered the special Lecture separately on topics of “New Challenges for Load Cell Industry” and “Function Safety Integration System and Development of Weighing Technology”. Then, altogether 7 enterprises introduced the latest scientific research to the audience. The main theme is on the following:

  • Intelligence Automobile Cloud Computing structure and service
  • Material stack auto-calibration belt scale
  • Trend for SOC in weighing industry
  • BIZERBA integral food safe and traceable system solution
  • Updated anti-cheating digital product introduction
  • Technology characteristic and use in weighing apparatus for wireless transparent transfer block
  • On food safety traceable web system structure and introduction in promoting in market

Weighing Technology Seminars

The seminar was not only rich in content but also varied in style. It showed the latest scientific and technological achievements and attracted a large crowd. After every presentation, the audiences raised a series of questions to the speaker, exchange opinions and achieved the desired results. This seminar provides exhibitors with a value added service, as well as a good platform for exchanging of new technologies and new products.

During the exhibiting period, more than 2000 " Proceedings of Weighing Technology" which is specially prepared for professional visitors were snapped up.

The InterWeighing2012 focused on showing the newest weighing technology and products R&D by exhibitors from around the world, which include all kinds of scales, balance, weighing system, indicator, load cell, testing instrument and device, electronic component and materials used in weighing instrument. These exhibits reflected the latest technological achievements of weighing industry in today's world, meanwhile, showed current development level of weighing industry in today's China. The exhibition also had been concerned of many users of weighing instruments. Many business people from metallurgy, chemicals, machinery, transportation, food, oil and other industrial systems, who used weighing instruments a lot, came to visit the exhibition in succession. Many trade companies and distributors came to the exhibition for trade talks with the exhibitor. In order to accelerate the pace of development, some weighing enterprises sent their staff to the exhibition to get latest information, exchange experiences and explore cooperation. Many exhibitors and customers signed supply contracts or intent contracts on the exhibition. They expressed satisfaction with the exhibition, and commend the exhibition had a real effects in enterprises promotion, technology exchanges and products launch to markets. The exhibitors felt that they were reap a huge harvest from the exhibition, and showed intention to attend next one. They hope the organizer could promote the exhibition into a world-class level international professional exhibition.

Since 1995, China Weighing Instrument Association has organized 13 International Weighing Exhibitions in Beijing, Chengdu, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Qingdao, Changsha and Nanjing. This strongly strengthens economic & technological exchanges and cooperation between China and international weighing industry. This made a tremendous contribution to introduce advanced technology and equipment for China weighing enterprises, to promote the production, process, technology advances, to speed up the adjustment of product structure and to promoting the trade development. In recent years, in addition to being in 2009 global financial crisis there is a little decline in exports, China's annual exports of weighing products increase at a double-digit growth rate. In 2011, according to China Customs statistics, the export of weighing products has reached USD one billion, it increased 19% than 2010.

During the preparation stage, some foreign exhibitors reminded to the organizer that the date of InterWEIGHING2012 opening time is far from Canton Fair’s first and second period. Some of people who have participated both Canton Fair and InterWEIGHING2012 in past years, but this year it is not convenient for them to participate InterWEIGHING2012. Although according to the facts, it seemed only one foreign company didn’t attend and also visitors are more or less equal with be fore’s years number. But this also reminds the organizer to consider as many factors as possible for an international exhibition.

The InterWeighing2012 was closed successfully. China Weighing Instrument Association will actively prepare for the Interweighing2012. We believe that in the strong support and active cooperation of the CWIA members and weighing enterprises, the InterWEIGHING will achieve great success and become better!
