Hands-on planning for fastener and assembly success

The show organisers recognise that whether you’re in a design, production or manufacturing management environment, overcoming fastening problems can sometimes take an undue amount of time. Their successful format encourages visitors to bring their drawings and/or product samples along and have them appraised at first hand by the best experts in the business. “It isn’t just a great way to get some immediate resolution – it is also the quickest too! You can expect to meet with, and talk to, expert after expert exhibitors who have almost certainly been where you are now with your project at sometime in the past. They do it for a living and you’ll be surprised at how many fellow engineers you will see there talking to them over drawings, prototypes or pre-production samples!” says organiser NewbyCom.

Experience shows there are plenty of experts to talk to at the Fastening & Assembly Solutions Exhibitions: the forthcoming show in October already has the biggest number of exhibitors ever seen at the event. Mechanical fasteners, press joining, clinching, riveting, self-pierce fastening, adhesive tapes, adhesives, hinges, handles, latches, locks, threaded fasteners, threaded inserts, inserts for plastics, plastic fasteners, hook and loop closures, fireproof closures, vibration-safe fasteners, locking devices, aerospace and automotive fasteners: just a handful, but with such a wide range of products coupled with the most experienced technical advice in the UK, an answer to your fastening or assembly needs surely lurks here somewhere!
