The UK Motion Control Alliance Supports Engineering Endeavour through its 2016 Motion Control Industry Awards Programme 

Scheduled to take place on Tuesday 12th April 2016, at the National Motorcycle Museum near Birmingham, the Gala Awards Dinner will bring together the entire motion control industry in a celebration of business and professional excellence. Recognising and rewarding the achievements of both individuals and companies operating within this important industry sector, personal endeavour, technical innovation, engineering advancement and commercial acumen will all be acknowledged and celebrated.
 
Produced by Touchwave Media, in conjunction with Motion Control Alliance, the awards programme can claim widespread industry support. Companies already engaged with the awards programme through sponsorship include the likes of Bosch Rexroth, Parker Hannifin, Beaumanor Engineering, BFPA, BFPDA and BCAS, with each one enjoying an impressive package of promotion, designed to align their respective brands to excellence in motion control.
 
Speaking about his decision  to sponsor the ‘Contribution to Skills & Training’ award, Alastair Johnstone, Managing Director of Bosch Rexroth UK, said: “With many experienced engineers heading into retirement, we need to do all we can to address the historic shortfall in new engineers.”
 
Adrian McGreevy, Managing Director of Beaumanor Engineering added: “Beaumanor is proud to announce its involvement in the Motion Control Industry Awards, especially in its launch year.  By sponsoring the ‘Distributor of the Year’ award, we look forward to championing all distributors in our sector and throughout the UK. It’s great to see the affiliation of the three main bodies; we are proud to be associated with this positive platform for celebrating our industry”.
 
Sponsors, Finalists and the eventual winners will all be featured on the dedicated website, which will be the focal point for the initial ‘Call for Nominations’, the subsequent promotion of the ‘Finalists’ and the all-important presentation of the eventual ‘Winners’. The website will also be the vehicle through which table bookings can be secured for the prestigious Gala Awards Ceremony, which promised to be an evening of reward and celebration not to be missed.
 
The closing date for all entries is 5pm on Wednesday 23rd December 2016.
