LogiMAT 2026 further strengthened its position as Europe’s leading trade fair for intralogistics solutions. From March 24 to 26, 2026, international providers of intralogistics solutions and process management gathered in Stuttgart. With visitor numbers exceeding the previous record year of 2025, as well as new highs in exhibitor participation and occupied exhibition space, the trade fair sent strong signals for innovation, automation, and the use of intelligent technologies in warehouse logistics.
DFT with Its Own Booth at LogiMAT 2026
In 2026, DFT was represented at LogiMAT with its own exhibition booth. Together with its partner RedPilot, the DFT team held numerous technical discussions with national and international visitors. The trade fair presence provided a clear and structured presentation of DFT’s sorting solutions and offered a compact overview of the sorter portfolio for the automated sorting of hanging and flat goods.
RedPilot complemented the joint appearance with solutions for resource optimization, rounding out the presentation of forward‑looking intralogistics concepts.
Sorting Technology in Focus: Flexible Solutions for Intralogistics
At the booth, DFT presented a cross‑section of its sorter portfolio:
- Push Tray Sorter
- Cross Belt Sorter
- Split Tray Sorter
- AutoPocket
The showcased systems demonstrated the breadth of DFT’s sorting solutions for a wide range of requirements in retail, e‑commerce, and industrial intralogistics. Particular emphasis was placed on the flexibility of the systems and their applicability across diverse use cases.
A key topic was also PROVEN 100 TIMES – reflecting the experience gained from more than 100 installed adapter systems.
Milestone Achieved: 100th Adapter System Installed Worldwide
With the installation of its 100th adapter system, DFT has reached an important milestone. This achievement is based on many years of expertise in the development of reliable and precise sorting and sequencing systems.
Today, more than 15 million adapters are in operation worldwide in DFT systems, sorting and sequencing over 30 million products per day. With the pocket sorter systems EcoPocket® and AutoPocket®, the adapter system has been further expanded, significantly increasing the range of sortable products.
More than 20 years of experience in overhead conveyor technology are incorporated into today’s solutions. This expertise forms the foundation for the continuous expansion of the portfolio, including the development of modular sorters for flat goods.
Comprehensive Sorter Portfolio for a Wide Range of Applications
DFT’s sorter portfolio includes the vertical Push Tray Sorter, the Split Tray Sorter, the Cross Belt Sorter, as well as the pocket sorter systems EcoPocket® and AutoPocket®. These solutions enable efficient sorting of both hanging and flat goods and are designed for a wide variety of industries, including fashion, retail, e‑commerce, pharmaceuticals, and CEP service providers.
Professional Exchange and Market Feedback
In addition to showcasing technologies, LogiMAT 2026 provided ample opportunity for in‑depth professional exchange. Feedback from discussions with customers, partners, and prospective clients confirmed the high relevance of modular and scalable sorting solutions. In particular, DFT’s expanded portfolio received very positive feedback and directly addresses current market requirements.
Continuing the Journey in 2026
The appearance at LogiMAT 2026 marked the start of DFT’s trade fair season for 2026. In the coming months, Dürkopp Fördertechnik will be represented at further international industry events to continue the dialogue with customers and partners and to present its latest sorting solutions.
Upcoming events include MODEX in Atlanta (USA), CeMAT in Melbourne (Australia), and the Parcel+Post Expo in London (UK).
