Splendid MACH for 600 Group

Ten machines were sold from the 600 Centre stand during the show, and both the Electrox and Pratt Burnerd International/Crawford Collets stand enjoyed more activity on the stand than at the last MACH, with Crawford Collets selling a collet chuck within 15 minutes of the show opening. Over 1200 serious enquiries were received for 600 Group products, it is claimed. Marketing director Stephen Le Beau said: “We were extremely pleased with the results from this MACH – there will be no difficulty in justifying our substantial 5-stand presence at the show. All our companies performed well and have results which have surpassed the previous show, which we had in itself found a fruitful show. What impressed us most was the quality as well as the quantity of the visitors we had on the stands, and that most of those visitors were actively shopping for machines and equipment they need to purchase in the immediate future. We found it a very buoyant show, with visitors confident in the future of their manufacturing operations in the UK”.
