Why Chicago · Why IMTS · Why Now

There's no better
moment

than now.

There’s no better moment to experience the future of manufacturing than during IMTS 2026 — the largest manufacturing technology show in the Western Hemisphere.

By bringing SolidCAM World to Chicago during IMTS week, we’re creating one central meeting point for innovation, collaboration, and technology leadership.

From cutting-edge machining and automation to AI-powered manufacturing workflows, the entire industry will be gathered under one roof at McCormick Place.

This is where ideas become partnerships — and where the next generation of manufacturing takes shape.
