As the global recession for many begins to ease and UK
manufacturing in general shows signs of the ‘green shoots
of recovery’, the timing couldn’t be better for this year’s
series of shows that come together under the Advanced
Manufacturing UK banner

Co-located with MEDTEC UK, a
medical device manufacturing forum,
this year’s series of shows represent a
diverse showcase of the tools, technologies
and techniques that will enable UK high-tech
manufacturing professionals to become
and/or remain world class.

The Advanced Manufacturing UK recipe
for success contains five key ingredients:
Mtec Sensors,Measurement &
Instrumentation – dedicated to
instrumentation and techniques for
practical measurement as required in
control, engineering, processing, physics,
chemistry, utility and the life sciences
sector.

Machine Building and Automation –
products, systems, components and
services utilised by the machine building
and advanced manufacturing industry,
and showcasing the next generation of
automation techniques and equipment.

VTX – for expert and potential users of
vision systems.

3C Contamination control and
Cleanrooms – for the protection and
prevention of particle infection to
personnel, products, or the environment.

Practical Vacuum 2010 – for all aspects of
vacuum technology.

Educational content
Providing design and manufacturing
professionals with a showcase to meet and
review the latest suppliers of raw materials,
manufacturing, automation technology and
outsourcing, Advanced
Manufacturing UK also
embraces a programme of
educational events. In
addition to the MEDTEC
Conference and the
Medical Device Innovation
Forum, this year’s
programme will include
Education Theatres
focused on the
technologies of vision
(VTX), vacuum (Practical
Vacuum) and wireless
technologies (Mtec).
