MICRO NANO MEMS 2017 SHOW PREVIEW
opportunity to show the audience what they can offer via live technical product demonstrations. This will also give visitors the chance to learn and understand how these could benefit their own particular manufacturing operations and applications. “Providing a vital link between product
developers, solution engineers and end users, Connecting Industry LIVE will offer two days of unmissable networking, demonstration and learning opportunities for anyone involved in the manufacturing Industry,” Mead added. Returning for 2017 is the popular
Formula 1 Simulation Car, sponsored by PR Electronics, guaranteed to bring a competitive and entertaining edge to the event while providing the perfect networking opportunity. Also returning is the Innovation Showcase. Situated at a key point within the hall, this too has been expanded to allow even more exhibitors to display their latest products and technology, forging an all-important link between technology innovators and end users.
EXHIBITORS FOR 2017 New to the show this year is exhibitor, BAE SYSTEMS, an international company engaged in the development, delivery and support of advanced defence systems in the air, on land, at sea and in space. The organisation is a centre of excellence for research, development and manufacture of low observable materials and micro and nano scale technologies and will showcase its latest innovations. Returning once again this year is
exhibitor Accumold, a high-tech manufacturer of precision micro, small and lead frame injection moulded plastic components. Aaron Johnson, vice president of marketing & customer strategy at Accumold comments: "Micro Nano MEMS is a perfect fit for Accumold. Over the years this event has been a vital part of our global strategy. Our primary focus at Accumold is micro moulding and micro technologies and this event has been a perfect place to tell our story." Acutance Scientific, a specialist in 3D
Optical Profilers and user-programmable, sensing nanorobotics and micromanipulation systems will also be at the show. The company will be offering live demonstrations of its 3D Optical Profiler and is inviting visitors to bring along samples to 3D map. Ian Holton, director, Acutance Scientific says: “Micro Nano MEMS is the perfect place for us to demonstrate our cutting-edge 3D Optical Profiling. The feature area is packed with people with a common interest in nano and micro manufacture and micro and nano metrology. With the very rapid advances in micro
manufacturing leaving conventional mechanical methods of 3D metrology far behind, micro manufacturers are interested in the latest and most advanced methods of rapidly 3D Optical Profiling. This is for very challenging-to- measure 3D surfaces down to the nanoscale and in true colour, so it is the perfect forum to make our instruments available for live demonstration.”
INDUSTRY LEADING EVENT Plasma-Therm a leading provider of advanced plasma processing equipment will also be at the show. The company’s systems perform critical process steps in the fabrication of integrated circuits, micro-mechanical devices, solar power cells, lighting, and components for computers and home electronics to military systems and satellites. Plasma-Therm’s business development
manager, Helen Royal comments: “I have attended this event for the past few years and have always found it to be well attended with a good footfall to the stand, resulting in a number of leads and new contacts. There is a good mix of attendees from academics to SME’s to larger, well established companies. The NEC location makes it easy to access either by car or by public transport which is a particular advantage when exhibiting.” International exhibitor, Celoplás,
located in Grimancelos, North of Portugal will also return for 2017. During this year’s exhibition, Celoplás will be presenting its competences at stand C5. Come, visit the company and try an entirely new

experience at Sensors & Instrumentation. Commercial Micro Manufacturing
magazine (CMM) will also return. CMM helps an international audience of micro, high precision and MEMS engineers identify, evaluate and select the most commercially viable technology for their business. Industrial titles Micro Matters and
Electronics are the event’s lead media partners. Explaining why, editor Michelle Winny says: “Micro Nano MEMS is the leading UK event for the micro manufacturing, nanotechnology and microelectronics markets. It’s where people from the aerospace, automotive, military/defence, electronics and medical industries come to see new technology. Visitors will be interested in sensors, micro systems, ICs & semi-conductors, design, test & measurement solutions, electronic and computer components and we can’t wait to see what our exhibitors have to offer them!”
