Carfulan Group to debut new technologies at MACH 2024Derby-based Carfulan Group, a leading provider of advanced measurement and 3-D printing systems will give a UK debut to four ‘groundbreaking’ machines designed to help industry work smarter and faster. The company, which has seen sales soar to £20 million in the past year, will showcase more than £1 million of new technology at MACH 2024 (Hall 20, Stand 320), taking place 15-19 April at the NEC Birmingham. The company will showcase five of its engineering-based brands and will highlight futuristic 3-D technology, ‘state of the art’ tool presetting solutions and best-in-class multi-sensor measurement.

OGP UK, the Carfulan Group’s multi-sensor measurement system specialist, will be launching three new high-performance multi-sensor measurement systems — the Fusion 400, the Shapegrabber Ai620 and the E-Series E7 — all of which provide accurate, precise and industrial quality control measurements.

Meanwhile, Zoller UK will be adding to its tool presetting range by taking the wraps off a new advanced heat shrinking solution — the powerShrink. This innovation provides high-level rotational accuracy, long tool life, and reduced tooling costs, preparing tools for production in under a minute.

Chris Fulton, joint managing director of the Carfulan Group, said: “We are excited to be back at MACH for another year and cannot wait to build on what was our most successful show back in 2022. I don’t think we have ever had so much new technology to showcase in the UK for the first time and we cannot wait for our visitors to be able to get hands on with all of our solutions – all of which will help them reduce downtime and waste, improve quality and boost output.”

CarfulanThe Carfulan Group’s 3-D printing company, SYS Systems, will be showcasing a range of 3-D printing technologies, including the globally renowned Stratasys F900 3D printer. Trusted by global industry leaders in manufacturing, the high-performance Stratasys F900 3D printer sets the standard for reliable, accurate 3-D printing.

Whether printing a full tray of complex parts or a singular large part, the F900’s high strength and unmatched consistency ensures accurate results every time.

Alongside four new machines, the Carfulan Group’s new dedicated software company, Prolink UK, will also be making its debut at MACH and demonstrating how real-time data monitoring, automated reporting and unrivalled shopfloor integration can empower manufacturers to increase productivity.

The Carfulan Group’s presence would not be complete without the inclusion of non-contact measurement systems expert Vicivision UK. The stand will feature the Techno M614, designed for the high-precision inspection of complex components in industries including aerospace, automotive and medical, as well as the PRIMA 306, a state-of-the-art optical measurement system designed to provide high-precision measurements for turned parts in seconds.

Vicivision UK will also be revealing its ultimate shopfloor measurement devices — the Metrios Cross and Metrios Cross HD. These machines are robustly built to allow for fast, accurate inspections directly on the shopfloor with ground-breaking simplicity.

Carfulan Group’s sales director Rob Thompson concluded: “Despite what people are saying, the UK is alive with innovation and there is a definite pull towards reshoring, which will create a lot of opportunities. We want to help firms exploit this and the launch of our new technologies will do just that, giving them greater control, greater output, and greater quality. As a bit of a challenge, we’d love visitors to come along and challenge us to show them how our solutions can make them become more productive.”
