In the opinion of David Waghorn, managing director of machine tool supplier Hurco Europe, the Southern Manufacturing & Electronics show in Farnborough last month delivered on every front. Visitor numbers stood at 10,722, more than 5% up on last time, enquiry levels were high and the atmosphere throughout the hall reflected a manufacturing industry that is both resilient and ready to invest. Hurco welcomed a significant number of new contacts exploring its product range for the first time. Over the three-day event, 140 visitors from 88 companies engaged in detailed discussions on the company’s stand.
