Fluid Power & Systems and Air-Tech 2016 attract biggest visitor numbers to date
Only dedicated UK event
Air-Tech covered current key themes related to the very latest in air compressor and related technology from companies from around the globe. The event is fully supported by the British Compressed Air Society (BCAS), and is the UKs only dedicated event for the compressed air and generators market.
Vanda Jones, BCAS’s executive director, commented: “Air-Tech was a great show for BCAS on several fronts. It was the first time I had worked with DFA Media and the process was seamless. Even before the show started the exhibitor website made planning and marketing very easy.
“Once at the show, BCAS hosted its spring conference which was attended by members from both the manufacturer and distributor sectors. For the end users we were also able to use the platform to launch our end user survey, our technical guide and the new knowledge base on the website. Show traffic was brisk on all three days and it was an excellent opportunity for us to provide impartial expert advice to exactly the right audience. All in all a very successful three days; it enabled us to link with new contacts and existing members.”
Highly encouraging
DFA Media managing director, Ian Atkinson, said: “This was the best outing yet for the co-located shows. The response we received from exhibitors and visitors alike has been highly encouraging, which we believe reflects the continuing overall market strength and optimism felt within the industry sectors represented by these exhibitions. The entire team at DFA Media would like to thank the exhibitors, seminar presenters and visitors for making the event such a success.”
Fluid Power & Systems – highlights taster
Just some of the many highlights at Fluid Power & Systems 2016 included the following:
Abdex
On its stand at Fluid Power & Systems, Abdex promoted its new catalogue, covering everything from high pressure pipe fittings and adaptors, through instrumentation tubing, pressure test systems, flushing machines, hose crimping machines and hose manufacturing equipment. The company also supplies loose components, tubing, fittings, couplings, pumps, cylinders, valve assemblies, analysers, environmental equipment, complete control panels and systems.
Another key focus on the stand and in the new catalogue is the company’s newly introduced A-Test. Abdex understands how critical it is to test and clean. It also understands the importance of quality, safety and traceability. In this regard, A-Test was set up to allow Abdex to specialise in high pressure equipment and electric flushing rigs.
Alfagomma
At Fluid Power & Systems, Alfagomma displayed its Alfabiotech hose range designed to be used with biodegradable hydraulic fluids. Their oil resistant synthetic rubber also makes them compatible with lubricating oils and petroleum-based hydraulic fluids. This is a new generation of hoses with improved resistance and prolonged life. Alfabiotech hoses are compact and easy to bend. Compared with standards SAE 100 R 12/13/15 bend radius is reduced by up to 50 per cent. This year sees Alfagomma celebrating its 60 anniversary.
