MANUFACTURING


loyal attendees since the show’s inception, underscoring the effectiveness of Southern as a nexus for business and a platform for building long-term relationships. Certain themes will dominate the exhibition floor. Automation, especially in the form of robots and other autonomous production and handling systems, along with Industry 4.0 solutions will be prominently featured. Such innovations are in response to the prevailing skills shortage in the UK and Europe and provide practical solutions to challenges posed by Brexit, supply chain disruptions and rising energy costs. Reshoring of production, plus new technologies such as green energy and power-saving machinery, are further themes woven into the show. Some of the biggest names operating in the electronics sector will be present. They include Accelonix, Advanced Rework Technology, Aerco, Alantys Technology, Bentec, Blundell, Brady, Cogent, Conro, Corintech, Easby, Electronic Manufacturing Solutions, Electronics UK, Elite EMC, Escatec, Esprit, FermionX, Fuji Europe, Incap, Ineltek, Interlink / Calman, Jakob Hatteland, Japan Automatic Machines, Jauch Quartz, Kallista, Kiwa / RN Electronics, Lascar, NCAB, Nicab,


PCB Connect, Quality Precision Electronics, RDP, Rebound, Relec, RJS, RVL, Schurter, Selwyn, SeSemi, Stewart Technology, Timely Products, Vector Blue Hub and Wilson Process Systems. Check out www.industrysouth.co.uk/exhibitors for a full list of current exhibitors.


In addition to the show, a free technical seminar programme will give visitors and exhibitors alike valuable learning opportunities, with a particular focus on the technical, managerial, and environmental issues facing manufacturers today. Topics to be covered will include how to optimise resource usage, minimise waste and decrease pollution during PCB manufacture. This will therefore improve brand reputation while at the same time saving costs, increasing efficiency and making the whole exercise economically viable.
