This is the first in a series of events the Midlands Aerospace Alliance has organised to familiarise manufacturing businesses with the core activities and technologies being developed at the Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC) by key partners such as Airbus, Rolls-Royce, Aero Engine Controls and others.
As well as hearing presentations from prime and Tier 1 companies, we also have speakers from several Midlands manufacturing companies who will discuss their manufacturing capabilities and where they see tooling and fixturing technologies going in the future.
This series of seminars is intended to be participative with attendees encouraged to promote and share capabilities in an interactive workshop environment.
Attendees are also encouraged to book a free-of-charge literature display table to promote their capabilities throughout the day.
The MAA will use the information from the day to promote and publicise attendees' capabilities in future publications.
This event also includes a tour of the prestigious new Manufacturing Technology Centre near Coventry.
