DesignTech Systems will once again mark its presence at IMTEX 2026. With a strong, long-lasting association with IMTEX, DesignTech continues its tradition of beginning every new business year by engaging closely with the manufacturing ecosystem through this pivotal industry platform.
 
DesignTech has been participating in IMTEX for many years, consistently leveraging the exhibition to showcase advanced solutions, interact with industry professionals, and build meaningful relationships. Speaking about the importance of the event, Vikas Khanvelkar, Chairman and Managing Director of DesignTech Systems, stated, “IMTEX is a significant forum for us to showcase our advanced product design, engineering and manufacturing solutions to the industry at large. IMTEX sees attendance of industry professionals from across India and it serves as a fantastic opportunity for us to engage and discuss new opportunities with them. It is through such interactions we foster new collaborations and new partnerships.”
 
IMTEX 2026 holds special significance for DesignTech, as the company will introduce its newly developed Factory and Industrial Automation Line of Solutions. With this, DesignTech has entered the Industry 4.0 automation space, offering AI-powered, scalable automation solutions for both MSMEs and large manufacturing enterprises. These solutions are designed to eliminate redundancies, improve operational efficiency, and enable manufacturers to become future-ready in an incredibly competitive global environment.
 
At IMTEX 2026, DesignTech will present a robust portfolio of automation solutions, including AI-enabled vision inspection systems, predictive maintenance and motion-diagnostic tools, and customised industrial robotic solutions for specialised applications. These offerings are designed to enhance productivity, improve output quality, and enable predictive diagnostics for smarter and more reliable manufacturing operations.
 
One of the key attractions at the DesignTech stall will be VisionX, the company’s flagship AI-enabled 360-degree vision inspection system, which detects surface defects, manufacturing errors, and tolerance inconsistencies at micron-level precision. Another significant display will be the Predictive Maintenance and Motion Diagnostic Tool, an AI-enabled system that monitors machine motion and internal mechanisms. It predicts machine failure at an early stage, shortening downtime and preventing costly production losses.
 
The company will showcase a customised robotic arm at its stall, which performs specialised operations including production-line automation and material handling. DesignTech will also showcase industry-grade Stratasys 3D printers, highlighting advanced additive manufacturing capabilities. These exhibits demonstrate how additive manufacturing has evolved to become a critical production technology for small-batch manufacturing, complex geometries, lightweight structures, and customized end-use parts.
 
Elaborating on the value of IMTEX, Prashant Deshpande, Vice President – Strategy, DesignTech Systems Pvt Ltd, noted, “Industry recognised shows like IMTEX provide us new insights on the direction, paradigm and emerging trends of the manufacturing industry. It helps us understand what kind of solutions the industry is looking for, and how our offerings match their requirements. IMTEX offers us a valued chance to forge new connections, broadens our industry contacts base, opens new opportunities, and provides the strategic directions for work in the coming year, which is why we have been participating in IMTEX consistently and shall continue to do so.”


 
Through its diverse portfolio, DesignTech aims to help manufacturers move closer to digitalisation, direct digital manufacturing, enhance product performance, and achieve comprehensive Industry 4.0 adoption. DesignTech’s team will be available for detailed discussion and demonstration at Hall 3A, Booth B136. The company expects IMTEX 2026 to open doors to new collaborations, generate strong interest in its Industry 4.0 automation solutions, and create significant opportunities for next-gen production environments.
