Helix Tool Makes MACH Debut
Published: | Industry News, MACH 2026
Helix Tool Ltd is set to make its debut at MACH 2026, the UK's premier manufacturing event, sharing Stand 440 in Hall 20 with Floyd Automatic Tooling at the Birmingham NEC from the 20th to the 24th of April.
For Helix, the move represents a significant step in bringing the company's unparalleled range of product lines, vending solutions and technical application expertise to a wider audience. Helix are regarded as an expert in problem-solving and delivering measurable results for manufacturers across all industry sectors and applications.
Paul Lynch, Managing Director of Floyd Automatic and Helix Tools, said: “MACH has always been an important event for Floyd, and it’s fantastic to bring the two businesses together on a joint stand this year. For me, it’s an opportunity to meet customers from both companies, share our combined expertise and offer practical advice that helps manufacturers get the most out of their operations. Sharing a stand with Floyd allows us to bring genuinely complementary strengths together.”
Visitors to Stand 20-440 will have the opportunity to explore the full breadth of what Helix can offer. Central to this will be the company's expanding tool management and vending solutions, which provide manufacturers with secure access, real-time usage tracking and automated stock control. Designed to turn tooling into a managed, measurable asset, these systems help manufacturers to gain greater visibility over consumption, reduce waste, costs and improve accountability across the shop floor.
At MACH 2026, Helix Tools will have experts on hand to guide manufacturers to the ideal solution for their processes. Regardless of whether exhibitors are machining steel, stainless, aluminium or aerospace-grade materials like titanium and high-performance super alloys, such as Inconel, Helix will have the solution at MACH 2026.
The joint stand with Floyd Automatic Tooling reinforces the collaborative approach that underpins both businesses. While Floyd brings its long-established authority in cutting tools and machining solutions for the sliding head and small part machining sector, Helix adds a complementary dimension through its breadth of product lines, tooling management expertise and material-focused application support. Together, the stand will offer engineers, buyers and production managers a single destination for practical advice and tangible solutions.
