There are various new trends, rising day by day not only due to the technology but by the demands of the people in the world. In the year 2018, there are major developments in the sales world. Machine tool and equipment industry has seen its rise and falls over the years it was first established. The US is the world’s largest market for machinery and it is the third largest supplier. Machine industry is a subsector of the industry which produces and maintains machines for consumers, for other companies and for itself. It produces a range of products from power tools, types of machines, and other goods. Machine tools are produced by the machine industry, which consists of machines for shaping or machining metals done by cutting, boring, grinding or other forms of deformation. Overall, Machine tool industry builds machine tools for sale to other companies and who are subsequent manufacturers.

Trends of the industry

Certain sale trends are due to the rise of technology, employment and demands which are created by the people. Marketing and business are an unstoppable industry to say as an overall. Some of the trends in the machine tool industry also the metalworking industry includes:

  • Additive technology: it involves 3D printing for assembling plastic mock-ups. 3-D printing is revolutionizing design and manufacturing. It permits fast and more efficient production of metal tools in larger volumes.
  • Advanced Robotics and Machine intelligence: apart from the single task robots which are used currently, with advanced robots in place, they are able to make use of improved sensors and communicate with other devices.
  • Augmented Reality: it is implemented with operations, safety management, design protocols and quality control in the machine tool industry is endless. The AR permits to view the manufacturing operations with visualizations and step by step of the process, assembly and machine tool change.
  • Big data: due to the various sensors present in the current technology world, there is a lot of data present. This is an essential trend in the machine tool industry, which helps to transform and make production more efficient. Big data can help in optimizing the running of the machines.
  • Binder Jetting and Energy Deposition: binder jetting allows the dispensing of the binding agent onto the powder. Metal filaments are melted using laser and electron beam.
  • Personalized selling: over the years, it’s been known that before interacting with a company, the buyer will collect and communicate with multiple other companies before selecting the right one. This, in turn, increases the pressure on the sales person to make sure they have put their effort into convincing the company to be the selected one. Hence, to make this process smoother personalized techniques have been adopted using artificial intelligence.
  • Smart manufacturing Technology: this allows the machines to turn on and off automatically once the operation is completed. It also displays the damaged part and what needs to be taken care of in the machine parts.

Those were quite general in terms of business. When considering the machine tools and equipment, we see more of technological advancement by utilizing sensors and Internet of Things. Smaller working sensors have been easier to install on all sorts of machines and equipment available. Hence, real-time feedback is emitted to the machine in any sort of failure. Big data has also been the promising trend in the manufacturing sector which helps in transformation and production simpler.

Products of the machine tool industry

This industry as mentioned focuses on the metalworking and manufacturing of the machine tool parts to various manufacturers. These individual tools based on metals are then manufactured to other companies where they are assembled and the product is complete. Some of the products include:

  • Drill press
  • Hobbing machine
  • Lathe
  • Saws
  • Planer
  • Screw and Milling machines
  • Grinding, Shear, gear shaper etc

These are the most common, yet popular products of this industry, which are widely utilized in many companies. Other products are available depending on fabrications. With proper utilization of the trends, the USA marketing and manufacturing in this industry can rise and hence can bag the top position.
