The Micronora international trade fair will be back from 29 September to 2 October 2026 in Besançon, France. As a leading event in the microtechniques and high precision sector, Micronora showcases solutions and innovations specific to the wide-reaching sector of high-precision engineering, miniaturisation and the integration of complex systems.
In a context where technology must account for performance, energy efficiency and resource optimisation, miniaturisation is now a necessity in all industrial sectors. That said, miniaturising is no longer just about being smaller. The challenge now is to design, integrate and control reliable complete systems in which every micron counts. This industrial imperative is precisely what Micronora is all about.
While some events view high precision from a sector, process or market angle, Micronora takes a more demanding stance from a comprehensive and structured industrial approach.
Micronora is very relevant to the entire value chain of any company with miniaturisation or high precision needs, whether these are:
R&D and engineering solutions: from design through to the integration of complex systems.
Machines, peripherals and tools: to manufacture components with submillimetric precision, complying with the highest repeatability and productivity standards.
Industrial supplies and related equipment: vital for operating, continuity and efficient production processes.
Software and digital solutions: to design, coordinate and optimise industrial processes.
Surface treatments and related processes: crucial to ensuring high-performing components made to last.
Specialised subcontracting: covering all the skills needed to produce high-precision parts and sub-assemblies.
Measurement and control solutions: to ensure compliance, reliability and meeting the most stringent tolerance requirements.
Analysis and correction solutions for production equipment: to control processes and achieve zero defect targets.
This continuity is in Micronora’s DNA: seeing high precision as a continuous chain of expertise, rather than a patchwork of skills. This continuity makes the event unmissable for manufacturers.
Micronora brings different sectors together. The technologies presented at the trade fair are applied to a wide range of sectors such as aeronautics, luxury goods, medicine, defence, electronics, the automotive industry and energy. The cross-industry possibilities are particularly conducive to technology transfers.
What is developed to address an extreme constraint in one sector often creates an opportunity in another. Micronora fosters innovative cross-fertilisation where a compartmentalised approach would limit prospects.
Micronora is organised by the Micronora Association, which promotes the microtechniques and high precision sector in France and abroad.
This initiative expresses a vision – the vision of an industry where high precision is not just about technical performance but a strategic springboard for innovation, competitiveness and longevity. With this in mind, the association’s goal is to create an exceptional industrial ecosystem, promote expertise and support companies facing the challenges of technological and economic transition.
