The Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers’ Association is all set to organise the fourth edition of the Delhi Machine Tool Expo (DMTX 2023) from 24 to 27 August 2023 at Pragati Maidan, New Delhi.

The upcoming DMTX 2023 event will feature dedicated pavilions showcasing the Metrology on Metrology Expo (metrology, testing instrument, and equipment), Weld Expo (welding, cutting, and joining), and Digital Manufacturing (additive manufacturing and evolving Industry 4.0 concepts).

Indian and foreign exhibitors would connect with more than 15,000 visitors from user industries that will attend the expo. This makes DMTX 2023 a one-stop destination for products and solutions needed to upgrade the manufacturing capabilities of regional industries, especially the MSMEs. The primary focus of the expo would be on bringing manufacturing solutions to the industries, especially the ones located in northern and Eastern states like Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, West Bengal, etc., and other regions as well.

DMTX 2023 is a business-to-business (B2B) exhibition that would enable the manufacturing industry to attain higher quality and productivity and enhance competitiveness by adopting modern technologies. The machines and accessories on display would serve the needs of industries like automobiles, auto components, medical equipment, railways, aerospace, defence, electrical, electronics, textile, construction, general engineering, farm equipment, and many other industries looking to source solutions.

Expressing his expectations from the upcoming edition of the show, Ravi Raghavan, President, IMTMA said, “Delhi and NCR is a major industrial hub and is very closely connected with cities which have a presence of large companies from automobile, defence, aerospace, engineering and many other sectors. Every machine tool builder serves this market, and DMTX 2023 would open avenues for exhibitors to penetrate the regional markets of North India and exchange knowledge and experiences to augment productivity.”

“It is also important to note that Uttar Pradesh has been making rapid strides with the Defence Industrial Corridor to make India self-reliant in the defence sector. It also attracts investments in sunrise sectors such as EVs, aerospace, electronics, renewable energy, etc. Machine tool industries participating in DMTX 2023 will have a great advantage to connect with closer user industry markets,” Raghavan added.

Elaborating on the forthcoming expo, Jibak Dasgupta, Director General & CEO, IMTMA, said, “Exhibitions like DMTX are pivotal in ushering brand visibility and enhancing business prospects. For OEMs and component manufacturers in Tier 2 cities of the North Indian market, this would be a great opportunity. I am sure the expo would complement the demand for machine tools in the post-monsoon period.” Speaking on the response received for DMTX 2023, Dasgupta added, “We are glad to see the enthusiasm from machine tool companies that have already booked space for the show. With more than 250 exhibitors from India and overseas, the expo will certainly be an added advantage for the visitors as they could see the latest technologies and solutions.”

The previous edition of the Delhi Machine Tool Expo held in Pragati Maidan in 2017 had attracted 11,279 visitors from 9 countries, viz, China, Czech Republic, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and the USA, and the show was a great success.

DMTX 2023 holds great significance for all players associated with the manufacturing industry. Exhibitors must tap into the rising demand for machine tools and augment their business. The expo will act as a stepping stone in that direction.
