Coming Soon: XLVIII CONSOLDA & IV CBMAdi – 2026

From November 23 to 26, 2026, the School of Engineering at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG) in Belo Horizonte (MG) will host one of the country's most important technical-scientific gatherings in the fields of Welding and Additive Manufacturing.

Held jointly, CONSOLDA (National Welding Congress) and CBMAdi (Brazilian Additive Manufacturing Congress) bring together researchers, industry professionals, students, companies, and innovation centers to discuss technological advancements, industrial applications, sector challenges, and research and development results.

Over the course of four days, the event will feature lectures by nationally and internationally renowned experts, technical and scientific paper presentations, roundtables, workshops, technology clinics, and an exhibition showcasing equipment manufacturers, consumables, and technological solutions for the industry.

Accepted papers will be published in digital proceedings, with authors encouraged to submit full articles to relevant journals, thereby increasing the visibility and impact of the presented research.

If you work in—or are interested in—welding, additive manufacturing, materials, automation, or manufacturing processes, this is the ideal venue for technical updates, networking, and exchanging experiences with leading experts and institutions.

We look forward to seeing you in Belo Horizonte—or, as we say around here, in "Beagá"!
