From aircrafts and satellites to the watch you are wearing, passing by the computer to the mobile phone you use every day, almost all objects have been made thanks to the machine tools.

Machine Tools are high precision, intelligent devices that provide the industry with the capacity to produce goods with high accuracy, very fast and in big quantities minimizing their price and in the most efficient way minimizing both the cost and the environmental impact of the manufacturing industry.

Even commodities of the simplest form such as spoons and pots which in backward regions are still forged by hand, pass in mass production through a number of operations on specialized machine tools.

The machine tool is the prime mover of technological progress, and is indispensable in the automation of production. It demonstrates the state of our engineering art, and reflects the capabilities of our industry and economy.
