The organisers told manufacturingtalk that the exhibition will provide design engineers and micro manufacturers from all industry sectors with an invaluable source of information to help advance the use of existing and emerging micro manufacturing technologies.
Micro manufacturing is the production of small components and products, which have not been possible in traditional manufacturing processes until the recent introduction of technologies and techniques.
These innovative techniques produce of smaller and smaller components with incredible tolerances and accuracy.
MM Live 2008 will focus on the mass manufacture of ever decreasing sizes of components whilst maintaining quality and precision throughout production.
The announcement of this exciting new show has already attracted great interest from companies supplying micro milling, micro injection moulding machines and micro laser cutting systems.
Sales director of MM Live, Mark Blezard, commented: "We are delighted with the positive reaction from the industry and are particularly pleased to announce that Deckel Grinders, the UK sole agent for Kern micro milling machines and Rainford Precision Machines, supplier for Union Tool endmills and drills, have already committed to being headline sponsors for the show." He continued: "Designers and manufacturers are now able to break through previously impenetrable barriers in terms of size and accuracy parameters.
This is a key driver behind innovation for most manufacturing sectors but particularly for automotive, aerospace, electronics and medical.
Whilst jewellery and watch makers have long worked on a micro scale, these technologies afford them unprecedented savings in time whilst enabling greater production quantities".
MM Live 2008 will run alongside the TCT 2008 Exhibition and Conference, which attracts over 2000 key manufacturing professionals seeking out innovative technologies and techniques in the area of rapid manufacturing.
MM Live 2008 will provide the first and only forum in the UK for micro manufacturing technology and service providers to showcase their products.
