Building the Future of Interfaces: Live from Stand F19 at EDS 2026!
The stand is up, the displays are polished, and the last box is empty. We just put the finishing touches on Stand F19 here at the CBS Arena in Coventry. The hall is mostly quiet right now, filled only with the sounds of other exhibitors finishing their setups. But tomorrow morning, the doors will open, and the Engineering Design Show ~ EDS 2026 will officially begin.
We have had a busy day, but we are absolutely thrilled to be here.
I am Mike, the Development Manager at RH Technical Industries. Beside me, taking one last look at our showcase panels, is Tony, our Operations Manager. We drove up together today with a vehicle packed full of our absolute best Human-Machine Interface (HMI) solutions. For the next two days, October 7th and 8th, we want to show you exactly how we can bring your next product to life.
If you are a design engineer, a product developer, or a manufacturer, this show is for you. We know why you come to EDS 2026. You do not just want to look at shiny new tech. You want solutions. Customers generally have tight deadlines, strict budgets, and complex design problems. You need partners who can actually listen to your needs and deliver exactly what they promise.
That is exactly why Tony and I are here. We want to put our customers at the very centre of everything we do.
What You Will Find at Stand F19
When you walk up to our stand, you will not just find a catalogue of solutions we manufacture. You will find real, tactile examples of what we do best. We want you to pick them up. We want you to press the buttons and feel the quality for yourself.
Here is a quick look at what we brought with us this year:
Custom Membrane Keypads:
Your users interact with your product through its keypad. If the buttons feel cheap, your whole product feels cheap. If the keypad fails in a harsh environment, your product fails. We design our custom membrane keypads to survive the toughest conditions while giving the perfect tactile feedback. Come to our stand and explore for yourself. You will immediately feel the difference that high-quality engineering makes.
Graphic Overlays and Industrial Labels:
The graphic overlay is the literal face of your brand. It is the first thing your customer sees. It needs to look sharp, clear, and perfectly aligned with your company colours. But it also needs to resist chemicals, UV light, and heavy daily use. At Stand F19, we are showing off some of our most vibrant and durable overlays. We can show you how we match colours perfectly and select the exact right materials and adhesives for your specific environment.
Silicone Rubber Keyboards:
Your end users might need the strong, positive tactile feel of real 3D keys. Silicone rubber keyboards are perfect for harsh environments. They easily resist water, dust, and extreme temperatures. They are also simple to clean, which makes them ideal for medical and industrial settings. We design and mould these keyboards to fit your product flawlessly. We can even create custom colours and unique key shapes to match your brand exactly. Stop by and press a few keys for yourself. We build them to last, so you never have to worry about failures in the field.
Mike’s Perspective: From Sketch to Reality
As the Development Manager, my favourite part of the job is the beginning of a project. I love it when a customer comes to me with a rough idea, a napkin sketch, or a difficult problem. Maybe you need a control panel that works seamlessly in freezing temperatures. Maybe you need an interface that a surgeon can operate through thick gloves.
When you visit us at Stand F19, I want to hear about your challenges. Do not just ask us what we sell. Tell us what you are struggling to build. My team and I exist to bridge the gap between your initial concept and a fully functioning prototype. We focus entirely on your specific needs. We simplify the design process, catch potential issues early, and guide you toward the smartest, most cost-effective HMI solution.
Tony’s Perspective: Delivering Quality Every Time
While Mike takes the details and offers various options based on an initial product review. The how’s, the where’s, and the why’s required to streamline this project for you; my job as Operations Manager is to make sure we actually build it perfectly. Great design means nothing if you cannot manufacture it reliably.
Our customers demand consistency. When you order from RH Technical Industries, you trust us with your reputation. You need to know that the thousandth keypad we ship you will be just as flawless as the very first prototype. At our stand, I would love to talk to you about our manufacturing process. We run a tight, highly controlled operation and test rigorously. We source the best materials and take pride in delivering your parts on time, every single time, so your assembly line never has to stop.
RH knows that supply chain reliability is one of the biggest stress factors for manufacturers today. Let us show you how we remove that stress entirely.
An Open Invitation to You
The Engineering Design Show is the premier event for engineering, electronics, and embedded design in the UK. Thousands of brilliant professionals will walk these aisles over the next two days. If you are one of them, we truly want to meet you.
Face-to-face conversations still matter in this industry. A five-minute chat at our stand can solve a problem that might take weeks of back-and-forth emails. Bring your blueprints, or your rough ideas. Bring your hardest design challenges.
Tony and I are ready to go. The stand looks fantastic, the tech is powered up, and we have plenty of enthusiasm for the days ahead.
So, consider this your official, open invitation to EDS 2026. Come down to the CBS Arena on the 7th or 8th of October. Take a walk through the hall and look for Stand F19. Stop by, say hello to Mike and Tony, and let’s talk about how RH Technical Industries can help make your next great product a reality.
We cannot wait to meet you!
