On Monday, September 14, IMTS – The International Manufacturing Technology Show will launch IMTS Network, a new digital channel that will broadcast live on IMTS.com from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. (CT) each day through September 18.
In conventional metal (material) removal processes like milling, turning, drilling, boring, and grinding, the challenge is always to hold the tool securely and rigidly against a fixtured workpiece without interfering with the process.
Machine tool orders declined in September compared with a year earlier despite the return of the IMTS show after a four-year hiatus.
After 10 years of a successful collaboration producing co-located shows at IMTS – The International Manufacturing Technology Show, AMT – The Association For Manufacturing Technology and Hannover Fairs USA have mutually agreed to move in new directions. The move gives Hannover Fairs USA the ability to expand and both trade shows the flexibility to look into new sectors and initiatives.
New tooling and workholding systems help prep machines shops for Industry 4.0.
The wait is almost over. After four years, IMTS is returning to an in-person show at Chicago’s massive McCormick Place.
