SlotPro T-Slot Aluminium: EMEX 2026 Recap.

Published 18 June 2026

SlotPro exhibited at EMEX 2026 in Auckland from 26th to 28th May, and we want to thank everyone who stopped by the stand.

EMEX is New Zealand’s largest manufacturing, engineering and technology trade show. It draws manufacturers, engineers, designers and fabricators from across the country, many of whom work with T-Slot aluminium every day. Over three days we talked through plenty of their projects in person, and it was good to put faces to the work.

Seeing SlotPro T-Slot Aluminium in Person

Photos and CAD models only tell part of the story. On the stand we had extrusion, components and finished assemblies that people could see and handle up close.

We brought our Stair and Platform System (SPS) so visitors could see how access structures go together using standard SlotPro profiles.

The SPS is a modular access system for building everything from compact steps to fully elevated platforms, all from our SlotPro T-Slot aluminium system. It comes as a ready to assemble kit, fast to install and is easily customisable to suit your site.

Alongside it we displayed our modular SlotPro trolley, built entirely from SlotPro extrusion and components. It is a clear example of how the system adapts. The same profiles, brackets, fasteners and panels that build guarding or a workbench will build a trolley, a frame, or a machine enclosure.

SlotPro is one stocked range that covers a lot of jobs, and assembly only needs a set of standard hex keys.

Over 400 Socks and Plenty of Good Conversations

We also handed out over 400 pairs of SlotPro socks across the three days. They were popular, and a fair few people came back for a second pair.

Some visitors were tackling a job for the first time, others were expanding a setup they already run. Either way, the work was consistent: guarding around new machinery, safe access platforms, custom framing, and custom machine enclosures. If you want to read the official guidance behind much of the guarding work we discussed, WorkSafe New Zealand publishes clear information on machine guarding requirements for anyone specifying equipment in this country.

Missed Us at EMEX? Let’s Talk

If you didn’t make it along, you can still see everything we had on show.

The best place to start is our 1Guard modular guarding range and the Stair and Platform System. If you would rather see how it all goes together first, our team offers expert CAD support through design assistance.

SlotPro is stocked locally in New Zealand, precision machined to spec, and backed by that CAD support.

Get in touch with the SlotPro team and we will point you to the right parts.

Thanks again to everyone who came to see us at EMEX 2026.
