Some 14 German machine-tool vendors recently showcased their production technology in the metropolis of Busan, South Korea.

The trip, organised by the VDW (German Machine Tool Builders’ Association), allowed machine-tool suppliers to meet with 170 potential customers from South Korea, principally from the automotive industry and its component supply chain. Among the machine-tool vendors delivering presentations were Alzmetall, Chiron, Emag, FFG Europe, Pfauter, Heller and Kapp Niles. The presentations focused mainly on specialised capabilities for the Korean industrial sector, such as networking solutions in the Industry 4.0 environment.
