IMTS 2008

Big Machines at the Big Show
Expect to see quite a few very large machine tools at this show, especially horizontal boring mills and flatbed lathes with large spindle bores. Activity in the energy, oilfield and power generation markets is a key factor driving interest in these machines. (Machines to handle large aerospace components will also be conspicuous but no more so than at the last IMTS.) In addition to new, over-sized models from familiar builders, you’ll find some exhibitors, new to IMTS, with machines for giant wind turbine parts and the like. - Read More -
