Show automation, do not describe it

At all about automation almost every stand has something that moves: a robot arm, a pick-and-place cell, a conveyor with a vision system. That is your advantage over a brochure — and exactly what gets lost in a still photo of the stand. We film motion sequences at a high frame rate so grip, positioning and cycle time can be shown in slow motion, and we photograph the equipment at rest before opening, while the stand is still empty.

Controls, sensors and cabinets are visually unremarkable. We put them in the picture with side lighting and detail shots so displays stay readable and connectors, frame sizes and type plates are legible — the material your sales team actually sends out after the show.

Two days — how we use the time

At a two-day show the first day is the one that counts: full aisles, most of the technical conversations, the talk programme. We recommend a four-hour package on day one: the hour before opening for clean equipment and stand shots, then conversations, demos and a short statement from your head of sales on the stand.

By the evening a 30-second highlight video is ready to post — while your day-two visitors are still on their way.

What NRW exhibitors gain here

all about automation is a regional show. Your visitors are your direct neighbours in machine building and manufacturing between the Rhine and the Ruhr. Pictures of a busy stand with real conversations are more credible to this audience than any rendering — and they carry you through to the next regional show.

For exhibitors

all about automation 2026: what exhibitors should know for photo and video

all about automation takes place in the Alte Schmiedehalle, Hall 33, on the Areal Böhler site. The two show days have different opening hours, which shapes how you plan photo and video.

Wednesday is the longer day

Doors are open from 9:00 to 17:00 on Wednesday but only from 9:00 to 16:00 on Thursday. We therefore put longer filming blocks, interviews and demo videos on Wednesday wherever possible.

Talk Lounge on the show floor

Talk Lounge sessions take place inside the exhibition hall and are free for visitors. If a colleague is speaking, we film the talk and cut short quotes for LinkedIn, without leaving your stand unstaffed for long.

Innovation Gallery

The organiser's Innovation Gallery shows new product developments alongside established solutions. If your exhibit is included, a separate shot there gives you a second setting next to your own stand.

Invite guests with a plan

Visitors need a day ticket or a voucher code from an exhibitor. If you invite customers with your code and fix meeting times, we can plan those conversations as testimonials and meeting scenes.

Workshops and start-ups

Besides the Talk Lounge there are workshops and start-up formats. Taking part gives you a few minutes of extra footage that shows your team sharing know-how, not only exhibiting.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does a photographer at all about automation Düsseldorf cost?

From €990 plus VAT for two hours of photo and video on site with at least 30 edited images and a 30-second highlight video. Four hours from €1,490, a full show day from €1,990. Travel to Areal Böhler is included.

Can you capture moving robots sharply?

Yes. We photograph with short exposures and film at high frame rate so motion can be shown as slow motion. We do not stop the line for stills — we work with its cycle.

Is a short package enough for a two-day show?

For most exhibitors, yes: four hours on day one cover stand shots before opening, demos and conversations. If you need both days, the second day is charged at a reduced rate.

Do you deliver the video on the show day?

Yes. The 30-second highlight video and a first photo selection are usually ready on the evening of the show day, the complete delivery within 24 hours.

Do you work in English?

Yes. Interviews, briefing and the entire engagement run in English — a large share of our trade fair clients come from outside Germany. Invoices with VAT ID for EU companies, no German VAT for companies outside the EU.
