PMTX concludes on positive note
The four-day Pune Machine Tool Expo, 2016 – Western India’s B2B exhibition, concluded on a positive note on 2 October 2016.
With more than 100 exhibitors, the machine tool exhibition attracted 7,400 visitors and 62 trade delegations from various industries such as auto component, automobiles, capital goods, defence, aerospace and railways. Along with host city Pune, the event attracted impressive number of delegates and visitors from the Tier II and Tier III cities such as Aurangabad, Nagpur, Kolhapur, Mumbai, Satara, Ahmednagar, besides the neighboring state of Gujarat.
Organized by the Indian Machine Tools Manufacture’s Association (IMTMA), the exhibition was held for four days from 29th September – 2nd October 2016 and served as a platform to demonstrate the latest manufacturing technologies. The expo covered both metal cutting and metal forming technologies including automation and robotics, tooling systems, CAD/CAM and other technologies, which are essential for today’s manufacturing.
The Pune Machine Tool Expo turned out to be fruitful both for the visitors as well as the exhibitors and most of the exhibitors were satisfied with the quality of the crowd and the business opportunities that the exhibition provided them.
The success of Pune Machine Tool Expo has given further impetus to the IMTMA’s idea of Regional Machine Tool Expos – to address requirements of the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) of the various industry sectors in the Tier II and Tier III cities in the various regions of India.
Continuing with the idea, the next Regional Machine Tool Exhibition will be the second edition of Delhi Machine Tool Expo, which will be held from 10-13 August 2017 at Pragati Maidan, before returning to Pune in 2018.
