AXYZ & WARDJet’s UK CNC manufacturing expo highlights automation innovation, integration and industry insight
AXYZ WARDJet has delivered a successful two-day UK CNC Manufacturing Expo held at its headquarters in Telford on July 16th and 17th, 2025. With over 200 sign-ups and a strong physical turnout, the event proved to be a platform for unveiling innovations, showcasing live demonstrations and deepening relationships with customers, prospects and industry partners.
At the heart of this year’s expo was a showcase of intelligent, production-ready technologies that address the modern demands of manufacturing. Attendees had the opportunity to experience first-hand the latest in AXYZ and WARDJet’s evolving portfolio of CNC routers, waterjet systems and automation enhancements.

Live demonstrations ran throughout both days, with a focus on reducing manual labour, increasing production speeds and improving safety.
One of the show’s main attractions was the debut of AXYZ WARDJet’s new Automatic Material Transfer (AMT) system, a robotic solution for lifting, loading and aligning sheet materials. AMT is fully automated, decoupled from the CNC machine itself. Attendees saw how dual AMT units can work in tandem, managing sheets of up to 6 metres long.
Alongside material handling tech new CNC cutting capabilities, such as the Swivel HP Oscillating Knife featured with its 12,000 CPM speed and ability to cut dynamic shapes across a variety of materials.
With automation comes the need for robust safety solutions and AXYZ WARDJet delivered new laser scanners and AI-powered camera systems. Offering real-time monitoring, adaptive safety zones and intelligent threat detection, these safety innovations help operators manage multi-machine environments, while remaining compliant with evolving safety standards.
A highlight of the expo was the personal, hands-on experience. The option to bring their own materials and run live tests was particularly well received.
As the machines remain on-site at the Telford HQ for a limited post-show window, AXYZ WARDJet encourages those who couldn’t attend to take advantage of this opportunity to experience the full line-up in action. Visitors can book tailored demos with their own production files and materials to explore how CNC automation can fit their unique challenges.
