Due to the large range of products, the decision to have different technology zones on the stand attracted visitors from colleges, consulting, aerospace and other areas of UK manufacturing.
Terry O’Neill, managing director of Roemheld UK said: “A high percentage of visitors were potential new customers and nine out of 10 visitors came onto our stand with a specific requirement in mind. The fact our stand was split into different sectors enabled us to more easily focus on the right product areas for individual needs. We were also a student friendly stand as we were keen to support colleges training the next generation of engineers.”
Of particular interest to visitors to the stand was Roemheld’s new hydraulic workholding range that included the Compact, Mini-Compact and Hinge clamps. The Remote Pressure Sensing innovation proved to be a topic for discussion, while the E-Tec range of electrically operated swing clamps generated interest from nuclear, packaging and special purpose industries.
As a manufacturer, Roemheld was also able to exhibit bespoke 5-axis solutions on the stand that would not generally be available from third party agents. The ability to use 5-axis vices to grip on just 3mm continued to be of interest while the new PC80 Pallet Clamp for small 5-axis machines and automation systems proved popular due to its compact size and high clamping force.
