Metrology, tool control and 3D printing Carfulan Group brings UK firsts and Mach debuts to Mach 2026

With five divisions, multiple product debuts and a focus on practical manufacturing gains, Carfulan Group will use Mach 2026 to demonstrate how integrated technologies can streamline processes and support faster, more precise production.

Carfulan Group is heading to Mach 2026 later this month with its biggest ever collection of technologies. The Derbyshire-based company, which has been an ever-present at the show for more than two decades, will unveil three ‘UK firsts’ and two ‘Mach debuts’ from across its five divisions at its stand (20-320) from April 20th to the 25th.

Thirty of the firm’s experts will be on hand to explain how its advanced manufacturing solutions can eliminate a lot of the ‘pain points’ companies are facing, helping them to reduce set-up times, achieve greater accuracy and support new products to get to market quicker.

Taking centre stage will be the new M-Series from OGP UK, representing the next generation of multi-senor metrology. The flagship M50 system, powered by the Intellicentric-M optimal system, is making its first UK appearance and has been designed for customers who need high accuracy across complex, multi-feature components.

This technology will be joined by the rapid shopfloor measurement expertise of the Metrios 332 and Vicivision’s Techno 918 turned part inspection system that will also be on display for the first time.

Visitors will be able to see the 918 configured with a combined conical laser and scanning probe solution - a pairing that unlocks a new level of flexibility for turned part measurement.

Chris Fulton, Managing Director at Carfulan Group, commented: “We’re bringing more technologies to Mach than ever before, showcasing our complete portfolio and how it can enable manufacturers to measure more accurately, design more freely, and produce more efficiently. There’s an increase in interest from all parts of the supply chain and from several new adopters. When we’re talking to clients, they continually talk about the frustration of going to different suppliers for what they need and the lack of a joined-up approach. We can negate all of this by offering all types of solutions — from the latest 3D printing and metrology to tool presetting and quality analysis — in one place.”

Carfulan Group will also be giving Mach debuts to two Zoller systems, each designed to bring greater control and consistency to tool processes.

Firstly, Tool Balancer is a precision balancing system that combines the latest balancing technology with an ergonomic, operator-friendly design which extends tool life and protects machine spindles.

Delegates will also be able to gain a first insight into Tool Station, a dedicated tool assembly station that supports fast, accurate and repeatable presetting workflows.

The final debut will be in the 3D printing space. As additive manufacturing continues to expand its boundaries, SYS Systems is bringing The Origin Two to Mach, alongside exclusive sample parts produced using the new Silicone 25a material.

The final element of Carfulan Group’s appearance at Mach 2026 will be an exciting F1 Competition taking place across the five days, with tickets for the British Grand Prix up for grabs.
