SINGAPORE, Oct 29, 2014 - (ACN Newswire) - MTA2015, Asia's premier precision engineering industry event, will return from 14 to 17 April next year at the Singapore Expo. With its hallmark showcase of high-value manufacturing capabilities, MTA2015 will highlight manufacturing excellence in industries such as Aerospace, Complex Equipment, Electronics, Energy, Medical Technology and Oil & Gas / Marine & Offshore Engineering.

Feature areas to bring technologies to life

Aside from the Capabilities Hub which drew strong interest from trade visitors, this upcoming edition will unveil a brand new feature, the Optical Engineering Focus Area.

Optical Engineering Focus Area

Working with the Optics and Photonics Society of Singapore (OPSS), an area dedicated to products and services in the field of laser and optical engineering will be developed for the event. The focus area will bring together optical engineering technology suppliers from China, Germany and Malaysia.

"The Optics and Photonics Society of Singapore (OPSS) is happy to participate in MTA2015 in the Optical Engineering Focus Area. MTA2015 is a great platform for industry players and companies to come together to share ideas, network and continue our support for each other in the region's high-value manufacturing industry. Co-located with the icOPEN2015 conference, the industry can also update themselves on latest technologies and trends in optical engineering," says Professor Anand Asundi, Chairman of OPSS.

"Manufacturing in the Asian region is no longer simply supplying the labour to make many of the products we use today. It has evolved with technological advances and manufacturers and suppliers are now looking at how to create and add value to their manufacturing processes," says Mr. William Lim, Project Director at Singapore Exhibition Services, organiser of MTA2015.

"MTA has been moving in tandem with industry trends and the addition of new feature areas will not only provide a premier sourcing platform of the latest state-of-the-art precision engineering technologies and solutions, it will also create a comprehensive and holistic experience for attendees," he adds.

Capabilities Hub

The Capabilities Hub will once again bring together local parts and component manufacturers and service providers to highlight their manufacturing competencies in the high-value sectors of Oil & Gas, Medical Technology, Aerospace and Complex Equipment. A collaborative effort with the Singapore Institute of Manufacturing Technology (SIMTech), this area will connect local and overseas manufacturers and enhance their ties through networking and collaboration.

To-date, exhibition stalwarts such as A&ONE Precision Engineering, ACP Metal Finishing, CEI Contract Manufacturing, Eratech, Fujicon Engineering, Meiban Group, Microcast, Nanotechnology Manufacturing, Onn Wah Precision Machining, PCI, Shine Precision Engineering, SolidMicron Technologies and ST Kinetics Integrated Engineering, have confirmed their participation in this space.

MTA2015: High calibre manufacturing showcase

As manufacturing processes become more sophisticated and requirements for advanced research and development grow, MTA2015 is well-placed to provide the links between major industry players and suppliers across the value chain.

MetrologyAsia2015: Serving industry's demands for precise measurements

MetrologyAsia2015, an area dedicated to metrology equipment, will cast a spotlight on companies specialising in high-end test and measurement apparatuses and systems. Attendees will be exposed to the latest in metrology technology and equipment to meet their precision measuring needs.

The last edition of MTA saw participation from metrology bigwigs such as Blum Production Metrology, Carl Zeiss, Hexagon Metrology Asia Pacific, Jenoptik South East Asia, Mitutoyo Asia Pacific, Optical Gaging, Renishaw (Singapore) and Wenzel Asia.

Knowledge sharing and discussions at MTA2015

icOPEN, now known as the International Conference on Optical and Photonic Engineering, and the PE COI Annual Conference will also return. These two conferences will feature technical and industry experts giving their insights on the latest trends and issues facing the precision engineering industry.

MTA2015 will incorporate iAutomation2015, MetalAsia2015, Outsource&SubCon2015 and ToolTec2015, specialised events that cater to the individual needs of Asia's manufacturing industry.
