Mach 2024 surpassed expectations for Worcester Presses with Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday being the main days. The biggest surprise was how good Monday and Friday turned out with the halls not as busy on these days, however enquiry quality was excellent. Overall, Mach 2024 was a resounding success for Worcester Presses. The event exceeded all expectations, with each day bringing new opportunities for growth and networking.

Young Engineers view of MACH 2024
Please see quotation below from Sam Greensill (Recently Qualified as a Toolmaker) in his own words:
“I was simply blown away by the sheer size and diversity of the show. Despite it being my first year there (hopefully not my last), I thought the event overall showcased not only the incredible prowess British engineering has, but how it is developing in so many new ways.
Overall, I took away from the show that engineering in Britain is not declining but developing and growing; making me personally proud to be a part of.”

Group Rhodes Limited
“MACH 24 was a resounding success for Group Rhodes, and a fitting celebration of it’s 200th anniversary year! With footfall and enquiries back to pre-pandemic levels, activity rates were high, and it was great to see an increasing number of metal forming companies in the MMMA village. We look forward to MACH 26, and a renewed opportunity to show our internationally leading technologies across a wide range of metal forming disciplines.”
