JIMTOF (Japan International Machine Tool Fair)

JIMTOF is more than just a successful machine tool trade show with 800 exhibitors from all over the world. It’s also an opportunity for our industry to present itself to more than 100,000 visitors from 71 countries and regions. The year 2012 marks 50 years of JIMTOF. Since 1962, JIMTOF has continued to attract attention from machine tool users in sectors including the automobile, construction, aircraft, shipping, and energy industries, earning it a position of central importance in manufacturing worldwide.” Our next-door neighbor China will be leading the global market in 2012, so our goal is to establish a Japanese presence at JIMTOF. It all depends on our brainpower and effort. In that sense, we have high hopes for JIMTOF 2012."(Mr. Masanori Matsuura, Chairman, Matsuura Machinery Corp.) "We view JIMTOF as a ‘salon.’ Company leaders negotiate and exchange information on trends and facilities, rather than talking about specific technologies, to ensure their advantage in the supply chain and ability to provide quality services to each other. In short, for us, JIMTOF is the biggest information hub in Asia." (A tool manufacturer in Japan) "There is a lot of decision-makers present representing major manufacturers. We`re introducing several large new pieces of machinery to our visitors. JIMTOF is one of the world’s leading machine tool exhibitions."
