Press Release Body = Worldwide demand for machine tool products are expected to rise 5.2 percent per year through 2009 to more than US$84 billion dollars1. In addition, it is predicted that Asia Pacific will account for almost half of this demand, making the region a major player in the machine tools and precision engineering industry.
Taking advantage of the bright outlook in manufacturing, many market leaders have already signed up and are expected to fully utilize the 4-day exhibition at the Singapore Expo to feature their latest and most outstanding machines, many of which will be launched for the first time in Asia and even the world. Machines presented on the exhibition floor also serve a wide array of industries, promising to answer the sourcing needs of buyers across Asia and beyond.
High level executives from the industry's biggest names have also expressed their support and endorsement for MTA2007 as an event to display high precision capabilities, cutting edge technologies, and spearheading Asia's manufacturing industries.
Said Mr. Daniel Nauer, President of Agie Charmilles South East Asia, "MTA2007 is an ideal platform to reach our target customers in the region. The Singapore show is an important event for Agie Charmilles as we will be able to demonstrate our high technology products and services without having to travel through the region".
