Machine Tools Africa Johannesburg

Africa’s Biggest Machine Tools Exhibition
Venue: JHB Expo Centre, Nasrec
SHOW TIMES: 9:00 to 17:00 Daily

As Africa’s biggest machine tools exhibition and a showcase of everything that twists, turns, rotates, cuts, forms, bends or shapes, Machine Tools Africa is designed to bring to life cutting edge global machine tools technology, and to highlight the importance of trusted local suppliers and their international manufacturing partners.

Attracting over 5900 high quality visitors over the four days, the previous Machine Tools Africa* exhibition received stellar reviews from all stakeholders – and the next show is set to be even better.

Recent statistics show a substantial increase in revenue of industrial machinery in 2021/2022. This confirms that despite the challenges South Africa has faced during this period, businesses are investing in machinery and upgrades.

There has been a continuing shift in interest to automation, smart factories, and Industry 5.0 and how it will affect the manufacturing sector in the coming years. The timing for the Machine Tools Africa exhibition is perfect.

South Africa has a well-established manufacturing sector that offers various opportunities for investors to diversify their portfolios, and the exhibition will provide a platform for industry stakeholders to work collaboratively to take advantage of the current environment.
