Carfulan Group will showcase five specialist technologies at the Farnborough International Conference & Exhibition Center (from Feb 3 to 5). The spotlight is on the debut of OGP UK’s SmartScope M7, a multi-sensor dimensional metrology system designed for inspection work. The platform pairs advanced optics with intellicentric virtual zoom technology to support inspection and measurement workflows.
This exhibition marks the start of seven major events the company will attend through the end of June’2026. It will present Stratasys-based 3D printing solutions (SYS Systems), turned part measurement (VICIVISION UK), optical measurement (Metrios UK), tool presetting (ZOLLER UK) and data collection software (Prolink). Scheduled appearances include “Seco Inspiration Through Innovation”, Dental Technology Showcase, National Manufacturing & Supply Chain Conference and MACH 2026.
“There is a huge appetite from industry to gain greater quality control and increased productivity, and our technologies can help businesses achieve these aspirations,” commented Lewis Hearne, group marketing manager at Carfulan Group.
“2025 saw us grow across all our solutions and 17% as a group, which is a fantastic performance. This is just the start. We now want to amplify our message and that’s why we’ve committed to our biggest event schedule ever, beginning with Southern Manufacturing in February.”
He continued: “Often visitors to events don’t understand that we offer multiple solutions and technologies from across our group and we are trying to change that.”
“This more proactive approach puts us face-to-face with the people we want to be talking to; manufacturers, engineers and decision-makers, and gives us the chance to have important, practical conversations about what they’re working on and where we can offer support to help them measure parts more accurately, design more freely and manufacture more efficiently.”
Across the three-day event, the company will run live demonstrations and show parts produced using Stratasys P3 Silicone 25a material. Attendees can see turned and cylindrical parts measured on the VICIVISION M306, review optical inspection with Metrios Cross, and examine ZOLLER Smile solutions for tool presetting and measurement.
Lewis concluded: “From advanced metrology and tool management to automated inspection and smart manufacturing systems, our stand is the place to see proven technologies shaping the future of precision manufacturing.”
“We want visitors to drop by, see what’s new at Carfulan this year, and have an open conversation about their manufacturing challenges. Whether it’s ideas, problems, or plans for 2026, we’re here to help get things moving and provide a solution tailored to their business.”
