Upcoming Trade Shows in Taiwan for Metal Working Industries

TIMTOS 2027, Taipei, Taiwan
3 - 8 Mar 2027
Taiwan’s metalworking industry stands is known for its robust ecosystem and heavy investments in innovation-first technologies. Let’s look at the most recent numbers, which illustrate why the country has cultivated the reputation as a pivotal player in the global machinery and machine tools market. The year 2022 proved to be especially fruitful as the sector registered $34 billion in exports and hit $48 billion in local production. With a focus on precision and adaptability, Taiwan continues to attract international attention as a leader in advanced manufacturing. The Taichung Metropolitan Area has emerged as the heart of Taiwan’s advanced manufacturing sector. It houses the Smart Machinery Promotion Office and the Taichung City Precision Machinery Innovation Technology Park, which has the world’s highest concentration of machine tool manufacturers. The ecosystem is characterized by close linkages between midstream and downstream segments and highly interdependent industrial clusters. The advantages here come in the form of cost-effectiveness and flexibility that few other markets can match.
Taiwan’s “5+2 Industrial Development Initiatives,” launched in 2017, have propelled its industry toward greater innovation and sustainability. Among these, the Smart Machinery program has seen the most rapid growth in the metalworking industry, which has finely sharpened Taiwan’s competitive edge internationally when it comes to system integration, automation, and smart manufacturing solutions. This focus aligns with the global shift toward Industry 4.0, where Taiwan is positioning itself as Asia’s smart machinery hub. Although Taiwan traditionally sourced conventional machinery and tools from Germany and Japan, US producers are now viewed as strong competitors in automation and system integration. In 2022, imports from the US totaled $12.3 billion, accounting for 20% of the total machinery and tools imports.
International Metal Technology Taiwan (iMT Taiwan) serves as a cornerstone for the industry, integrating the entire supply chain into a single platform. This event connects global manufacturers, industry professionals, and investors, and its main focus is to build lasting connections between global markets, while showcasing Taiwan’s leadership in metal technology.
