SUPCON plans to present a range of industrial automation and artificial intelligence technologies at Hannover Messe 2026, where the company will focus on systems intended to support the development of autonomous operating plants. The exhibition, scheduled for April 20 to 24 in Hannover, will feature products spanning field connectivity, control systems, data infrastructure, robotics and process analysis.
The company said manufacturers and process industries are under pressure to improve efficiency and resilience, driving interest in technologies that move plant operations beyond conventional automation toward more autonomous systems. SUPCON’s exhibit is structured around six technology areas that it says can support that transition.
Among them is its Universal Control System, a software-defined control system designed to separate control functions from proprietary hardware. SUPCON says the system removes the need for traditional control cabinets and uses a cloud-native architecture intended to reduce physical footprint while increasing flexibility and scalability.
The company will also present its TPT2 platform, which it describes as a large-scale industrial AI system for modelling time-series process data. According to SUPCON, the platform is designed to support closed-loop AI optimisation by enabling plants to analyse operating conditions, generate predictions and carry out operational decisions in real time.
Another part of the portfolio is the Tier0 industrial data platform, built on a Unified Namespace architecture. SUPCON says the platform is intended to integrate and contextualise industrial data and support application development, with the aim of reducing complexity created by fragmented data systems.
In field communications, the company is highlighting Advanced Physical Layer technology based on Ethernet-APL. SUPCON says the offering is designed to provide high-speed and intrinsically safe communications between field devices and control systems, supporting real-time data access for applications including predictive analytics and digital twins.
The exhibit will also include autonomous industrial robotics systems for plant inspection, monitoring and intervention. SUPCON says these systems combine mobile robotics, sensing technologies and a centralised robot management platform to expand automated plant operations.
SUPCON is also presenting Hobré intelligent analyzers for gas analysis in the energy and chemicals sectors. The company says the analyzers are designed for continuous measurement in harsh operating environments, with the aim of supporting process optimisation and reducing reliance on manual sampling.
