The Vice President of a manufacturer for machine tools, which will showcase a modern and powerfull milling machine at IMTS 2018, emphasises: “The conversations at IMTS have changed from spindle speeds and traverse rates to how to deliver pertinent information so job shops and manufacturers can better manage their assets.
