Precision tooling manufacturer Exactaform reflects on a successful Advanced Engineering 2026, showcasing British engineering expertise, cutting tool innovation and its Coventry manufacturing capabilities.

Coventry-based precision tooling manufacturer Exactaform has reflected on a successful appearance at Advanced Engineering 2026, where it showcased its latest cutting tool innovations and welcomed visitors to its headquarters for a closer look at British manufacturing in action.

Exhibiting at Stand J142 on 4-5 November, Exactaform met with manufacturers, engineers and industry professionals to discuss the evolving demands of modern manufacturing and demonstrate its expertise across PCD, diamond-coated and carbide tooling.

Alongside the exhibition, the company also opened the doors to its Coventry headquarters, giving visitors the opportunity to experience its manufacturing capabilities first-hand. Attendees were able to explore the factory floor, see machinery and processes in operation, and speak directly with the technical team about their own machining requirements.

The two events provided an opportunity to highlight the depth of engineering knowledge and manufacturing capability within the UK, while demonstrating the role specialist manufacturers such as Exactaform play in supporting demanding industries.

Jamie White, Managing Director at Exactaform, said: “We had a really good show at Advanced Engineering this year. It was great to meet so many people from across the industry, have conversations about the challenges manufacturers are facing and showcase what we do here at Exactaform.

“Opening our factory alongside the exhibition was also a great opportunity to give people a better understanding of British manufacturing and the expertise, people and investment that sit behind it. We’re proud of what we’ve built in Coventry and the role we continue to play in supporting UK engineering.”

During the exhibition, Exactaform also showcased its latest product developments, including advancements in high-performance PCD tooling and newly developed diamond-coated drills designed to offer increased durability and efficiency in demanding machining applications.
