Southern Manufacturing 2020
Southern Manufacturing & Electronics returns to Farnborough next
month, bringing together a rich eco-system of engineering SMEs
operating across the UK.
Southern Manufacturing &
Electronics (11th to 13th
February 2020) returns to the
Farnborough International Exhibition
and Conference Centre next month.
With its trademark diversity
of suppliers, it is an event that
not only attracts some big-name
manufacturers, but also the rich ecosystem
that makes up the engineering
SMEs operating across the UK.
Southern has established itself as
one of the UK’s leading shows in this
space and now, in its third decade,
looks to address multiple sourcing
issues in a very time-ef cient way.
A free seminar programme,
running in two lecture theatres over
all three days of the show, covers a
wide-ranging agenda, from advanced
materials, additive manufacturing and
Industry 4.0 to real-world examples of
business transformation and Lean.
The programme gives delegates the
opportunity to gain insight at the very
highest level into many of the biggest
issues facing industry today. All
sessions are completely free to attend
and open to all visitors to the show.
Southern Manufacturing &
Electronics provides a UK and a major
pan-European showcase for new
technology in machinery, production
equipment, electronic production and
assembly, tooling and components as
well as subcontract services across an
impressively wide range of industry.
Below we take a look at just a
snapshot of the many exhibitors at
this year’s show.
binder – Stand C110
binder is a specialist in the design
and production of circular connectors
for a whole variety of applications
across many sectors. At this year’s
show binder will be showing the latest
examples from its comprehensive
range of connectors including M5, M8
and M12 connectors designed for the
growing sensors and controls market
and connector systems speci cally for
the medical and food and beverage
sectors.
Products to be featured include the
707 M5 connector series which now
includes an over-moulded connector
on PUR cables with 3600 shielding.
These are among the smallest sensor
connectors currently available and
will suit a wide variety of applications
across many industry sectors including
materials handling, conveyor systems
and automation in general, as well as
camera and security systems.
Other connectors on display will
include: the M12 A coded, moulded
connectors which incorporate both
power and signal/data contact
and the Series 570 ELC (for Easy
Locking Connector) for use in medical
applications where the need for
constant mating and un-mating is an
important consideration.
binder has designed the connector
to be capable of more than 5000
mating cycles which is enough to
satisfy the operating requirements of
many medical system applications.
