Cutting-edge technologies and products to be showcased at Advanced Engineering 2024

As Advanced Engineering approaches, the excitement builds with fresh announcements of cutting-edge technologies and products to be showcased at the upcoming event at the NEC in Birmingham on October 30 and 31, 2024. As a result, this year’s exhibition is shaping up to be a must-attend for engineering and manufacturing professionals, offering a glimpse into the future of innovation.

Among the exciting new additions, Flux Aviation will debut their prototype electric aircraft on the show floor. Flux Aviation, an innovative start-up on a mission to accelerate the transition of aviation towards electric power, is making waves in the industry having recently been recognised as the ‘Most promising solution by Innovation Zero,’ ‘Manufacturing Start-up of the Year by Made in the Midlands’ and Cleantech Startup of the Year by the Midlands Startup Awards. At the show, attendees will have the opportunity to see their groundbreaking aircraft prototype.

Also joining the lineup is ZeroAvia, a provider of hydrogen-electric propulsion and fueling solutions that will be presenting their hydrogen electric powertrain and fuel cell demonstrators. The company, which was named America’s number one green tech company by TIME magazine last year, continues to push the envelope in sustainable aviation and will provide an in-depth look at their innovative approach to zero-emission flight at Advanced Engineering this year.

In addition, the Markforged reseller of high-end 3D printers, Mark3D, will be showcasing the UAV Sensus Drone and Robo Challenge’s Spectre Robot for those interested in the latest in drone and robotics technology. These cutting-edge technologies promise to draw in visitors with their advanced capabilities.

The University of Southampton will also be bringing their electric Formula Student car to the event, offering a firsthand look at the future of motorsport engineering. Here, the student-driven project exemplifies the fusion of education and innovation in the electric vehicle space.

Meanwhile BEDEO, a British electric vehicle supplier and manufacturer, will host a live interactive demonstration of their electrification retrofit technology. This will showcase the transformation of a van into a fully electric vehicle, a hands-on exhibit allowing visitors to see the electrification process in action.

Autonomous vehicles will also be in the spotlight, with Ohmio unveiling its autonomous shuttle, a self-driving vehicle designed to enhance public transport efficiency and safety. Vehicles from Nissan and RML, a leading high performance automotive engineering company, are expected to make an appearance at the show too. In the marine sector, ARGO Engineering will introduce their DynaProa and FastRig Windwing concepts, offering innovative offerings for wind-assisted propulsion in marine transport.

Alison Willis, from Easyfairs, the organiser of Advanced Engineering, said: “Advanced Engineering continues to be a platform for groundbreaking innovations across sectors. This year’s lineup further reinforces our commitment to showcasing the very best in engineering and manufacturing across a range of applications. A common theme that flows through a lot of these demonstrations is sustainability — whether it’s through electrification, hydrogen power or wind energy. These innovations are not only shaping the future of our industries but also addressing the urgent need for cleaner, greener solutions too. We look forward to seeing how they will inspire people to work in STEM, while ensuring knowledge exchange and collaboration.”
