The Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers’ Association (IMTMA) is to hold the second edition of its northern regional show — the Delhi Machine Tool Expo from August 10-13 at Pragati Maidan in New Delhi.

The expo this time will also focus on metrology and welding. Metrology Expo, an exhibition for testing instrument, metrology and equipment and Weldexpo, an exhibition for welding, cutting and joining, will be held concurrently.

With over 200 exhibitors occupying a gross exhibition area of around 12,000 square metres in three halls, the expo will showcase technologies focusing on manufacturing solutions for metal cutting and metal forming industries located in North India.

IMTMA President P G Jadeja said, “The first edition of the expo organised in 2015 evoked a warm response with the presence of several domestic and international players. Manufacturers were able to expand their range. The second edition will enable them to build on the earlier success and reach out to regional industries.”

Focus will be on the numerous small and medium enterprises spread across Delhi, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, and Haryana.

Delegates from sectors such as capital goods, defence, aerospace, railways, automobiles, and many more are expected to visit the expo.

Apart from India, seven foreign countries -- the Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, the US, China, Taiwan and Australia -- are expected to participate. Three of these, China, Taiwan and the US -- will have group participation.

Talking about expectations from the show, IMTMA Director-General V Anbu said, “IMTMA is eyeing a bigger success in this edition. We expect a larger level of participation across various industry sectors and I am confident that the expo will continue to evolve in future editions.”
