State of the European Tool and Moldmaking Industry
As MMT's European Correspondent Barbara Schulz begins her work with us, I thought I'd share her report on the state of the European tool and moldmaking marketplace from ETMM.
MMT's European Correspondent Barbara Schulz is charged with sharing news, technology, trends and insights from Europe's tool and moldmaking marketplace. Last month she shared some of the "European-style" apprenticeships shops use to combat the workforce dilemna and next month she will take a look at varous automation strategies common across Germany. So, I thought it would be interesting to share her final report on the state of the European tool and moldmaking marketplace from her work at ETMM.
This edition also introduces economic information on the tool and die industry in 29 countries: Austria, Brazil, Canada, China, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, India, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Singapore, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, UK and USA.
