FOREWORD

ASPIRING FOR GROWTH

Once again, I am glad to connect with the readers of Modern Manufacturing
India (MMI) magazine.
Going by the recent trends, the Machine Tool industry in India is
experiencing a decent run in production, consumption, and exports. Order
booking for the forthcoming quarters looks promising.
Machine tools are once again drawing increasing attention from
manufacturing businesses. Thus, manufacturing growth aspirations
will only be realized when machine tools offer superior performance
and features that can cater to the needs of multiple sectors. Indian
manufacturers of machine tools can compete with national and
international peers by embedding new technologies, higher speed-
efficiency-and-precision, and features that support end-to-end solutions
with integrated services.
More than 850 exhibitors have registered for IMTEX 2023, Tooltech 2023 &
Digital Manufacturing 2023, which is scheduled from January 19-25, 2023,
at Bangalore International Exhibition Centre (BIEC) in Bengaluru. It is heart-
