From Design to Manufacturing: nVent HOFFMAN at SCB Expert Days 2026
The Smart Cabinet Building (SCB) Expert Days return in 2026, offering a hands-on industry event dedicated to digitalized and automated control cabinet building. The event brings together technology partners and industry experts to demonstrate practical, real-world approaches to modern panel building through live demonstrations and expert-led sessions.
Smart Cabinet Building Expert Days 2026
The SCB Expert Days focus on showcasing the complete cabinet building process, from digital engineering to physical implementation. Participants can explore how connected workflows support greater efficiency, automation, and consistency in control cabinet manufacturing, using real use cases that reflect everyday panel building challenges.
End-to-end cabinet building demonstrations
As part of the Smart Cabinet Building initiative, nVent HOFFMAN products are presented within integrated, end-to-end cabinet building workflows. These demonstrations highlight how Design to Manufacturing solutions support efficiency, automation, and productivity across the entire panel building process, from planning and design to manufacturing and implementation.
Live ModCenter demonstration within the SCB workflow
During the Smart Cabinet Building Expert Days, nVent HOFFMAN demonstrates the cabinet building process using ModCenter as part of the digital-to-physical workflow. The live ModCenter demonstration shows how digital cabinet designs are translated into precise machining operations, supporting automation and accuracy in the manufacturing phase of control cabinet construction.
By integrating ModCenter into the overall Smart Cabinet Building workflow, the demonstrations illustrate how connected processes help reduce manual steps, improve efficiency, and ensure a consistent transition from design to manufacturing.
