SME’s Manufacturing Engineering Media and Italian Trade Agency Partner for Volume IX Edition of Machines Italia Magazine
DEARBORN, Mich. (PRWEB) July 08, 2014 -- SME’s Manufacturing Engineering Media and the Italian Trade Agency have partnered to produce Volume IX of its digital magazine — Machines Italia. This publication showcases machinery and technology that Italian providers can offer to North American manufacturers, ultimately helping these companies be more successful in the global marketplace.
“Through the articles and news contained in this magazine, we hope that the experiences shared between local companies and their Italian solution providers illustrate to the readers that innovative solutions are readily available to make manufacturing here in North America more successful and competitive,” said Matteo Picariello, ITA commissioner in Chicago.
Machines Italia: Volume IX features articles on how advanced manufacturing can fuel the industry of the future, as well as how Italian manufacturers are improving industrial processes in making everyday items that were once imported, but are now locally manufactured. Articles also highlight how Italian machinery firms are enabling North American businesses to be more cost effective through a variety of innovative solutions.
“Recently we conducted an advanced manufacturing survey, and one of the most noteworthy findings was that in the next two years, one in five North American companies plan to invest more in advanced machinery and technology to maintain their competitive edge in the marketplace,” said Sarah Webster, editor in chief, Manufacturing Engineering Media. “This issue of Machines Italia shows that Italian providers are offering solutions to many common North American manufacturing needs and issues not addressed elsewhere.”
Features in the digital edition of Machines Italia include a detailed map of Italian manufacturing operations throughout North America, multimedia presentations and the advanced manufacturing survey of North American companies conducted by Machines Italia and SME.
