Taiwan’s machine tool output value reached approximately US$ 3 billion, ranking fifth globally (figures of 2022). About time for CIMSOURCE to bring “vendor managed tool data” to this important market. Boris Kaiser accepted the invitation to an informative meeting with Cutting Tool Engineering Association (TACEA). Initiated by Rocky Chang and Nine9 Cutting Tools (JIMMORE), the pressing questions from the audience included:   1️⃣ How could digitization based on standards help to grow the business? 2️⃣ How does it help to exploit new sales regions? As market volume declines due the recent loss in exports to China, the industry is challenged. Fact check: ℹ Following last year’s slowing global economy and geopolitical tensions ouptup of the Taiwanese machine tool production fell to US$2.6 billion in 2023. ℹ Exports of cutting tools to China in some cases were down by 30% ℹ And according to a statement of the Taiwan Machine Tool and Accessory Builders’ Association @tmba exports by Taiwanese machine tool manufacturers are expected to remain flat or grow only slightly in 2024.   Enough reason to take action. And any downturn eaves some time and resources to push digitization initiatives. @toolsunited, #cnc, #cimaachen,

Guess which CIMSOURCE partner resides in Kudan-Kaikan terrace building in Tokyo? The view alone was worth the trip beyond our immediate business goals. Kudan-Kaikan terrace is a next-generation office realizing a new way of working tha advocates theme of health, safe and secure environment. The former Kudan-Kaikan was built as the Gunjin-Kaikan(the Soldiers' Hall) in 1934 (Showa 9). In those days the building housed the headquarters of the Militaly Reserve Association in Japan as well as training and accomodation facilities. The architecture is in the Imperial Crown style, a concrete building with a tiled roof. The Imperial Crown style building which was often used for the Government buildings from the late Taisho to the early Showa era, is a valuable historical materials in the history of modern architecture. #toolsunited, CIMSOURCE GmbH, MISUMI, CIM Aachen GmbH, #cnc, #cuttingtools

Friday was the last day of #WCTC2024, and it was worth it. If only for the “double rotation" whirling presented by Prof.  Takashi Matsumura. My takeaways: 1️⃣ May the short term economic forecast may not be too enthusiastic, the metal cutting will remain vital to many industries. 2️⃣ The people in industry are fun to be with (no, still no photos or videos from karaoke revealed). 3️⃣ The SalesSupportServer (3S) was once again the most wanted product (no suprise with mostly tool manufacturers attending). Thanks to the JTA (Japan Cutting & Wear-resistant Tool Association) team for the great organization and hospitality in Osaka. #toolsunited, #cuttingtools, ECTA - European Cutting Tools Association, CIM Aachen GmbH, Tokyo Denki University
