IMTEX 2027 Bengaluru: International Machine Tool and Manufacturing Technology Exhibition

IMTEX 2027, the International Machine Tool & Manufacturing Technology Exhibition, will take place from 21 to 27 January 2027 at the Bangalore International Exhibition Centre (BIEC) in Bengaluru, India. Organised by the Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers' Association (IMTMA), the seven-day exhibition focuses on metal-cutting machine tools, precision manufacturing, industrial automation and emerging production technologies.

Tooltech 2027 and Digital Manufacturing will run alongside the main exhibition, connecting equipment manufacturers, engineers, suppliers and industrial buyers.

What Technologies Will Be Showcased at IMTEX 2027?

The 2027 exhibition centres on manufacturing technologies that help industrial businesses improve machining accuracy, production capacity and operational efficiency.

Machine tools and CNC machining: Visitors can explore turning machines, milling and drilling equipment, machining centres, grinding systems, gear-cutting machines and specialised production equipment. The emphasis is on metal cutting rather than the separate IMTEX Forming exhibition format.

Tooltech 2027: The concurrent show covers cutting tools, workholding fixtures, tooling systems, machine accessories, metrology equipment, sensors and CAD/CAM technology.

Digital Manufacturing: This exhibition focuses on Industry 4.0, additive manufacturing, robotics, connected production systems and technologies used to automate manufacturing processes.

Beyond product displays, IMTEX 2027 will feature the International Seminar on Machining Technology and industry–academia programmes. These activities give visitors opportunities to examine manufacturing developments alongside discussions with technology specialists.
