Asia’s foremost precision engineering event, MTA, is gearing up to return with a loud bang. The 19th edition of MTA, to be held from 9 to 12 April next year, will see trade professionals hailing from all facets of Asia’s diverse manufacturing sectors converging on one platform. These professionals have a firm goal – to peruse an expansive range of high end manufacturing capabilities spread across the exhibition show floor at the Singapore Expo.
The demand for uncomplicated components and standardised products, although essential to the traditional manufacturing sector, has long been classified as highly volatile due to shifting trade and political policies, as well as unforeseen economic situations. Regional industry players understand that moving core skills up the value chain by incorporating the latest products and technology into manufacturing processes is essential for any business that wishes to remain relevant and most importantly, competitive.
Market numbers obtained from the Economic Development Board of Singapore are testaments to Singapore’s rising prominence as Asia’s key manufacturing hub. The medical technology segment grew by 14.5 per cent in July 2012 as compared to previous year; higher output from rig building and ship building activities lifted the marine & offshore engineering segment to a gain of 5.9 per cent; and the aerospace segment rose seven per cent from a year ago with higher demand for engine manufacturing and repair jobs.
In tandem with industry’s progress and demands, MTA2013 will be focusing on three core vertical sectors – Aerospace, Medical Technology and Oil & Gas. With rising need for state-of-the-art equipment and tech capabilities for highly demanding manufacturing environments, MTA2013 will offer industry buyers a wide selection of products and
solutions specifically fashioned for these sectors.

With Singapore being the key manufacturing hub in Asia, coupled with the prestige of MTA being the premium market place for both international and regional machine tool brands, MTA has long been the choice platform for machine tool brands to launch their latest products and services in Asia.
