orthern Manufacturing & Electronics returns to Manchester’s EventCity on the 2nd and 3rd of October. The 250 or so companies expected to take part this year between them represent a comprehensive range of production hardware, components, subassemblies and service providers. Northern Manufacturing & Electronics is the only
regular exhibition catering for electronics in the North West. Not surprisingly, given the concentration of manufacturing activities in the region, since the first event in 2013 it has established itself as one of the key marketplaces for both electronics procurement and subcontracting. With both electronics and mechanical engineering well represented, visitors have the opportunity to deal with a number of procurement challenges in one visit – an aspect of the show that consistently ranks very highly with visitors. Moreover, the show’s location at the centre of the UK’s biggest manufacturing region makes it a particularly interesting one for major vendors eager to address the exceptionally rich supply chain eco-system of the North West.
The usual excellent assortment of component suppliers and manufacturers presents visitors with an outstanding opportunity to discover the latest products across a wide range categories, including connectors, sensors, enclosures and other electromechanical components. Optimas Components will highlight its vast range of C-class components, including plastic and metal fasteners, caps and plugs, PCB accessories and cable management products.

Other popular products being showcased include the complete range of Efore and Delta Electronics industrial and medical PSU’s, a range of medical and rail-specific models from P-Duke, the 1U high- efficiency range from N2Power and high voltage models from HVM. There’s also custom enclosures from CDT and rugged connectors and cable assemblies from Fischer Connectors, intended for applications where signals, high speed data and power need to be delivered with 100 per cent reliability even in extreme conditions. Other highlights for component-hunters include custom membrane keyboards from Calman Technology,TFT LCD displays from Crystal-Tech Electronics and the new Datakey Crypto-Authentication memory token from Nexus Industrial Memory, designed to protect industrial applications from cyber threats. Electronics production systems and hardware is another important aspect of the event. Brady returns for 2019 with its professional range of label printers, label feeders and print and apply systems.
