Best practice & practical design

27 August 2014

The Engineering Design Show, which will once again be co-located with the Electronics Design Show and feature Engineering Materials Live plus the new Embedded Design Show will cater specifically for design and electronic engineers, offering best practice learning and practical design ideas for visitors through a focused exhibition, comprehensive conference and practical workshop sessions

Expected to attract more than 4000 visitors and 250 exhibitors in 2014, executive director of organiser Findlay Media, Ed Tranter, says of the Show: "It has been great to watch the Engineering Design Show build on the success of the last two years to grow into something even bigger and better. It's also been great to receive so much positive feedback from visitors and exhibitors alike.”

Running alongside the Show the Conference and Workshop sessions will offer delegates the opportunity to hear about the latest technologies, techniques and strategies employed by experts at the forefront of their fields. Those signed up to address the Eureka Conference comprise representatives from some of the UK's most illustrious brand names, including Infiniti Red Bull Racing, Rolls-Royce, Morgan Advanced Materials, Gurit and Cambridge Consultants.

Speakers confirmed include:

  • Al Peasland, Head of Technical Partnerships for Infiniti Red Bull Racing, who will give a 'behind the scenes' insight into the fast-paced and exciting world of Formula One
  • Rolls-Royce's Chief of Engineering Transmissions, Mick Carlisle, who will be discussing the importance of designing in quality right from the beginning of the design process.
  • Dr Joseph Darlington, Technology Manager of the Manufacturing Technology Centre, who will be giving a keynote on how virtual reality can help manufacturers gain competitive advantage.
  • Bob Bell, Technical Director, Mercedes AMG Petronas, who will be offering an overview of the design disciplines that are utilised to produce a modern F1 car and its supporting infrastructure.

Running parallel to the conference programme, the Engineering Design Show workshop programme will offer more immediately practical, hands-on advice on a range of technical and technological subjects.

Two workshop theatres will cover 20 sessions across the two days, with highly relevant and practical content delivered by representatives from the likes of Schaeffler, Materialise, Barden Corporation, DuPont, EMS Chemie and Nylacast.

The Engineering Design Show will once again incorporate Engineering Materials Live to cater specifically for the engineering materials sector and will be co-located with the Electronics Design Show. Also running alongside these shows this year will be a new event, the Embedded Design Show which will focus on this growing sector of electronic engineering.

Ultimately, the co-location with the Electronics Design Show, the incorporation of Engineering Materials Live and launch of the new Embedded Design Show is aimed at continuing the Engineering Design Show's most fundamental aim – to offer design engineers a comprehensive event focusing on their needs and their needs alone.

The Engineering Design show takes place 22nd-23rd October, at the Ricoh Arena, Coventry.
