MACH SHOW PREVIEW Carfulan announces most ambitious Mach line-up in its history The Carfulan Group will be exhibiting flagship manufacturing technology from across its four businesses – including machines never before seen publicly in the UK – at one of the most anticipated industry shows of the year. The Derbyshire-based group has announced its most extensive product line-up ever for MACH 2020, where it will perform live demonstrations on world-leading solutions in multi-sensor metrology, 3D printing, offline tool pre-setting and inspection and turned- part measurement, all designed to help businesses achieve production efficiency and enhance product quality. Alongside models fromits Vantage, CNC and Zip Lite portfolios, OGP UK will provide visitors to Stand 20-460 with their first public glimpse of FlexPoint, the only co-ordinate measurement machine featuring multiple high-accuracy sensors in a VersaFlex cluster head, for precision inspection and data reporting on intricate parts. In another UK exclusive, there will be a chance to see a high-performance multi- sensor metrology system from OGP’s new SP range (the SP 332), as well as experience a QC-CALC software booth. Stratasys UK platinum partner SYS Systems is preparing to demonstrate the power of one of the 3D-printing industry’s biggest hitters at MACH for the very first time. The F900 offers the largest build size of any FDM printer and uses a wide range of engineering-grade thermoplastics for applications that require high performance, biocompatibility, static dissipation or resistance to impact, heat, chemicals or UV radiation, allowing users to balance fine feature detail and fast build. ZOLLER UK, meanwhile, has lined up a wide selection of its world-leading offline tool presetting and measurement systems, including the Smile SmartCheck, Smile Pilot 1.0, Venturion, PomBasic and Genius. These will be complemented by products from its popular Smart Cabinets range, a diverse set of manual and automated solutions that record, manage and store tools, perishables, accessories, fixtures and test devices ergonomically and intuitively. For VICIVISION UK, a supplier of high- performance optical and non-contact measuring machines for turned parts, MACH will be used as a platform to unveil the capabilities of its impressive Techno series. The M306 and M309 boast wide measuring fields and significant load capacities, helping to drive up productivity by making automatic and high-accuracy inspection possible in the heart of the production environment. To be held at Birmingham’s NEC from April 20 to 24, MACH is a biennial event focused specifically on engineering-based manufacturing, bringing together the best innovations and latest developments under one roof. The show, run by the Manufacturing Technologies Association (MTA), attracts more than 25,000 visitors and two years ago was said to be directly responsible for generating more than £200 million of business for exhibitors. Organisers have announced hugely extended manufacturing IT and 3D printing zones for 2020, cementing MACH’s reputation as an exhibition that provides the most comprehensive overview of the manufacturing technologies industry. www.carfulan.com Surface Surface metrology metrology for for manufacturing manufacturing - - - Tailored Tailored to your your needs needs Surface metrology for for manufacturing Surface metrology manufacturing - Tailored to your Surface metrology for manufacturing - Tailored to to to your needs Surface metrology for manufacturing Tailored your needs Flatness Form Form Step Flatness Form Form Step Flatness Flatness Step Step Flatness Form Step Flatness Flatness Form Form Step Step Parallelism Parameters Heights Heights Parallelism Parameters Parallelism Parameters Heights Parallelism Parameters Heights Parallelism Parameters Heights Parallelism Parallelism Parameters Parameters Heights Heights +44 (0) Surface Tribology Surface Tribology Surface Surface Tribology Surface Tribology Surface Surface Tribology Tribology Parameters Wear Parameters Wear Parameters Wear Parameters Wear Parameters Wear Parameters Parameters Wear Wear Quality Quality Quality Quality Quality Quality Control Control Control Control Control Control Pass Fail Fail Pass Pass Fail Pass Fail Pass Pass Fail Fail Analysis Analysis Analysis Analysis Analysis Analysis Analysis TopMap systems acquire aerial topography measurement data data TopMap systems acquire aerial topography measurement TopMap systems acquire aerial topography measurement data data TopMap systems acquire aerial topography measurement TopMap TopMap systems systems systems acquire acquire acquire aerial aerial aerial topography topography topography measurement measurement measurement data data data short cycle times , allowing from entire sample surfaces within short cycle cycle times times , times allowing from entire sample surfaces within short cycle , allowing from entire sample surfaces within from entire sample surfaces within short , allowing fast measurements on surfaces large areas; Automatic sample recognition short short short cycle cycle cycle times times times , , , allowing allowing allowing from from from entire entire entire sample sample sample surfaces surfaces within within within fast measurements on on large areas; Automatic sample recognition measurements on large areas; Automatic sample recognition fast fast measurements large areas; Automatic sample recognition (geometry and orientation) and large field-of-view .
