    FABTECH 2018: Scenes from the show floor

    Nov. 12, 2018
    Thousands and thousands of people excited about the latest and greatest in manufacturing machinery—it must be FABTECH.

    The snapshots above represent just a fraction of the 1,500 exhibits, demonstrations, and educational sessions spread across Georgia’s World Congress Center here November 6-8, but it’s a start.

    For complete coverage and new product specs, see the December print issue of Trailer/Body BUILDERS.
