Explore Additive Manufacturing at Smart Factory Expo 2026
Friday 13 March 2026
Visit CREAT3D on Stand G124 at Smart Manufacturing Week
We’re pleased to be exhibiting at Smart Factory Expo, part of Smart Manufacturing Week, taking place this June.
This major UK manufacturing event brings together engineers, manufacturers, and technology providers exploring the latest innovations in automation, digital manufacturing, robotics, and production technologies.
If you’re looking at ways to reduce lead times, cut costs, and improve production efficiency, stop by Stand G124 to see how Additive Manufacturing (AM) is being used on the factory floor today.
📍 Where: Stand G124. NEC, Birmingham, Hall 5
🗓 When: Wednesday 3rd June and Thursday 4th June 2026
🕘 Opening Times: 09:30 – 17:00
🎟️ Tickets: Free to attend (registration required)

Why Visit?
We’ll be demonstrating how industrial 3D printing is helping manufacturers produce tools, fixtures, spare parts, and end-use components faster, more efficiently and at lower cost.
What we’ll be Showcasing on Stand G124
We’ll be focusing on real applications of Additive Manufacturing that reduce costs and lead-times and improve processes:
- Manufacturing tooling and jigs
- End-of-arm tooling (EOAT) and automation components
- Production aids and fixtures
- Mould tools
- Functional prototypes
- Low-volume end-use parts
Live 3D Printing with Hands-On Application Wall
The CREAT3D Team will also have industrial 3D printers running live, so you can see parts being produced in real time and speak directly with our Applications Engineers about how best to apply AM to your processes.
You will also be able to explore parts printed in a range of materials, from engineering polymers and flexible materials through to metal and composite-reinforced parts.
Our application wall lets you see, pick up end explore a wide range of real-use 3D printed parts.
Chat With Our Applications Engineers
Our team of Applications Engineers will be available throughout the event to discuss your challenges and ideas.
Whether you’re exploring Additive Manufacturing for the first time, looking to bring 3D printing in-house, evaluating specific applications or materials, or trying to solve a production bottleneck.
We’re happy to review parts, components, or production challenges and help you understand whether AM could provide a practical solution.
Bring along a component, drawing, or simply an idea or question and we’ll talk through what’s possible.
Can't Make the Dates?
Alongside our always open showroom, we have a full calendar of events over the coming months, including major exhibitions, workshops, roadshows and hands-on experiences. Plenty of chances to see AM in action and ask all your questions.
