Team E-Max is all fired up for our first time exhibiting at the UK’s premier manufacturing technologies event, MACH 2018.

Brought together by the Manufacturing Technologies Association (MTA), the best of UK manufacturing will be showcased under one roof at the NEC, Birmingham, next week (9-13 April) at MACH 2018. With an anticipated 25,000 visitors expected across the week, a quality seminar program and multiple networking opportunities, MACH 2018 is an event that anyone involved in manufacturing or engineering can’t afford to miss. We can’t wait to get there!

Many of the 600+ exhibitors have already headed to the NEC this week to assemble their stands and equipment. Having seen the truckloads of materials and build requirements for some of our customers who are also exhibiting at MACH, we’re very glad that our manufacturing ERP and MRP software is so portable!

Olympic sailing legend, Sir Ben Ainslie, will be opening the event at 10am on Monday 9th April before kicking off the seminar program by participating in a Q&A session in the MACH 2018 seminar theatre. The seminar program this year is outstanding, including discussion panels, economic forecasts, industry specific opportunities, manufacturing technology trends, digital manufacturing updates and practical case studies.

Recognising that UK engineering is potentially facing a huge skills gap, the MACH 2018 organisers are playing their part in encouraging new talent into the industry. The Education and Development zone is the place to go to find out more on apprenticeships and is holding plenty of hands-on activities such as building your own drone; coding a robot to navigate a driverless car; designing and programing robots; immersive virtual reality environments and the chance to program and use some of the latest machine tools. For the first time, parents are encouraged to register their children (11+) to attend and see the future of manufacturing for themselves so if you have any aspiring engineers at home, why not bring them along too?

Team E-Max will be at Stand H6-111 so don’t forget to come along and say hello. We’ll be demonstrating our proven manufacturing ERP and MRP software which has been designed by engineers for engineers – just what you need! If you are looking for a replacement for multiple spreadsheets or an old legacy production control system or simply to increase your efficiency, streamline your processes or facilitate growth, then come have a chat with us at MACH 2018.
